Siptu has reiterated its calls for employers to facilitate working from home wherever possible after members reported being asked to report for work in their workplaces in circumstances where working from home could be facilitated.

The call comes as Ireland recorded 63 further deaths from Covid-19 yesterday, the second-highest daily figure since the pandemic began.
