The Home Office has extended the temporary measures on right to work checks, introduced at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, until 20 June 2021. We blogged about the re-introduction of the normal requirements, which the Home Office originally planned would take effect today, a couple of weeks ago.  You can read our previous post here for further details of the re-introduction, which will now take effect on 21 June 2021.

Dismissal for refusing to wear face mask can be fair

Over the past year, face masks have become an ordinary part of life and it was only a matter of time before they became the focus of a workplace dispute. In the first such dispute to reach a tribunal, Kubilius v Kent Foods Ltd (ET/3201960/2020), an employment tribunal found that a lorry driver was dismissed fairly for his refusal to wear a face mask on a client's premises.
