Rejected petition STOP workplaces ABUSING guidelines where workers in office can work from home.

Shut down / Issue fines for workplaces that are essential businesses abusing the guidelines where work in the office is non-essential and can be done from home. Put in place a law that lists work that can be done from home eg telephony / data entry where staff have to work from home only by law.

More details

Workplaces that are allowed to remain open from being essential are forcing staff into the office for work that can be done from home, causing covid to continue spreading whilst others are facing fines for gatherings and other rules, they are getting away with this in the background & completely abusing their allowance to remain open to reduce their costs and maximise profits at the expense of more infections, staffs health and death to others it spreads to, keeping the virus in circulation.
