Employers must allow for employees to self quarantine while waiting for their Covid-19 test results or authorities will shut down their premise, according to Health Minister Datuk Dr Adham Baba.
He said that this is possible through the General Standard Operation Procedures and the General Guidelines on the Approval of Operations Movement of Company Employees during movement control order (MCO) issued by the International Trade and Industry Ministry (MITI).
If employers do not allow quarantines, the condition states that the police and the Health Ministry, based on the authority given, can order the immediate closure of their premises. Non-compliance by employers must be reported to the police.
PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): Employers who prevent workers from undergoing self-quarantine while waiting for their Covid-19 test results can be penalised under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988 (Act 342), says Health Minister Datuk Dr Adham Baba.
He said workers who are positive must undergo compulsory quarantine for 10 days, while those negative should go into self-isolation. If employers are found to have disallowed this quarantine, provisions of Act 342 can be used to impose penalties on them. Action can be taken if employers do not allow their workers, either suspected cases or those being tested, to go into self-quarantine until the results are obtained, ” he told a joint media conference with National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme Coordinating Minister Khairy Jamaluddin here on Monday (May 10).
