On Friday, @fmwales announced that @welshgovernment are putting new regulations in place to enforce the 2m social distancing rule in the workplace. Seemed a good step to protect workers and responsible employers. 1/5 https://twitter.com/WalesPolitics/status/1247157473036898304
In essence, it would be the same system as they have in England- if you can abide by the 2m rule, then you can carry on with your operations. If you canât, you should down tools. The difference being that Wales was to come down heavier on firms who broke the rules. 2/5
However, todayâs @welshgovernment press conference muddied the waters no end with @fmwales stating that itâs not an outright ban, but rather that firms need to take âall reasonable measuresâ to abide by the rules. 3/5
On Friday, it seemed that Wales was taking a tougher stance on this than England. However, it turns out that the opposite is the case. 4/5
If in England, you canât abide by the 2m rule, @GOVUK is telling you to stop working. In Wales, if you canât abide by the 2m rule, @WelshGovernment is telling you that you can crack on as long as you have made âreasonableâ attempts to comply. 5/5
