People will again be encouraged to go back to their workplaces as part of a government campaign starting next week. Employers who have had staff working from home for months will be asked to reassure them that it is safe to return by highlighting measures being taken to prevent the spread of Covid-19.MBusiness leaders have warned of damage being done to city centres as people stay away from offices. The campaign will launch as most schools in England and Wales reopen. It will predominantly be promoted through regional media, the BBC's political correspondent Iain Watson said. Whitehall sources insist the campaign will not suggest those who continue to work from home are at any greater risk of losing their jobs, he added. Labour's shadow business minister, Lucy Powell, said no one should be forced "to choose between their health and their job" and the government should "categorically rule out" any campaign suggesting people could lose their job if they refuse to return to the office. A BBC study found 50 major UK employers had no plans to return all staff to the office full-time in the near future. One of the main reasons given was that firms could not see a way of accommodating large numbers of staff while social distancing regulations were still in place//BBC
