Wilko staff told to go to work as normal if they have Covid-19 according to leaked memo

Employees at a high-street retailer have reportedly been told that they should come to work, regardless of their Covid-19 status.

A memo allegedly belonging to Wilko has been leaked on social media, stating that both shop and warehouse employees should go about their work duties as normal if they show no symptoms of the potential killer virus - Wales Online reports.

The newest move by the retailer - who employ around 20,000 people - means that those who want to stay away from their workplace to avoid passing the virus on to colleagues or the general public will not be payed for their absence.
