Auckland, 24 January – New Zealand again move back to Red Traffic Light Setting due to Covid -19 Omicron variant. Many businesses have told their staff to work from home after New Zealand moved back into the red Covid setting while others are giving people a choice. While some large corporates today shifted to a staff off-site model, others said they were operating under more of a hybrid system, meaning a limited number of staff would work from the office. The red setting allows businesses to remain open and domestic travel to continue, but includes mask-wearing and gathering restrictions to under 100 to help slow the spread of the virus and keep pressure off our health system.
