Victoria’s staged return to office work will resume next week as more restrictions are eased and Victorians continue to enjoy a COVIDSafe Summer.
Premier Daniel Andrews announced today that with no current evidence of community transmission in Victoria, and a new permit system providing confidence that interstate outbreaks can be managed, Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton has recommended that it is safe for Victorians to continue heading back to on-site office work.
From Monday, January 18, the Victorian Public Service will be able to return to on-site work at 25 percent capacity at each site and all other office workplaces will be able to increase to 50 percent capacity.
Record keeping requirements for workplaces will remain unchanged, which means that an employer must keep a record of all workers and all visitors who attend the premises for longer than 15 minutes.
