Having long-lasting symptoms after Covid-19 is dubbed “long Covid” or “long-haul Covid”. Employers should be taking note of how this will affect worker productivity and medical incapacity in the workplace, say
Anton Engelbrecht, Alexander Forbes Senior Health Risk Consultant and Myrna Sachs, Head of Alexander Forbes Health Management Solutions
.
Usually Covid-19 symptoms last two weeks for a mild infection and up to six weeks in a severe case. If your symptoms persist or you develop new symptoms relating to SARS-CoV-2, the virus which causes Covid-19, then you have long Covid.
Long Covid may linger three months or more after isolation has ended. This may affect an employee’s overall work performance and their extended medical incapacity, disability claim or both.
