Advice to employers coping with Covid-19 isolation

More than 9000 New Zealanders are in isolation as the country deals with the global outbreak of the Covid-19 coronavirus, but what issues is this throwing up for employers? Earlier this week the Ministry of Health advised people to stay home if they have mild cold symptoms, to help slow the spread of the virus. But what happens if employees can't work from home? Or have used up their sick leave? The Employers and Manufacturers Association has more than 7000 members from Taupo northwards. The organisation's general legal counsel Matt Dearing joins Kathryn to talk about what advice it's giving businesses about how to handle Covid-19.
