I’m really interested to see peoples working arrangements now that we have ‘locked down’ and how this crisis might really affect the economy. Are you:
A) working from home and doing 80-100 percent of your job as usual
B) at home and not able to work but still being paid
C) made redundant/laid off during crisis
D) a key worker, still going out to work as usual (including teachers)
E) not a key worker but still being made to physically go into work as usual.

A - but actually working even more as I'm the finance manager and it's all about the financial planning right now so working really long hours. Thankful to have a job though and be working from home.

D but have 2 weeks annual leave

Flowersforpowers · 29/03/2020 14:01

A (and a key worker). Not convinced its sustainable though, so may move to B.

I'm on mat leave but i know from colleagues I would be D although we have been classed as key workers I'm not sure I agree also we could work from home but it hasn't been sorted. DH is B.

A mixture of D&E. I work for the NHS albeit not frontline. Our chief exec has told us 'the entire trust is keyworkers' so we have to go in. I am secretary/PA.
