Lateral Flow Testing for Businesses

10 Mar 2021

 

The Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC) has announced that from 6 March all businesses in England irrespective of size can sign up to the government’s free COVID-19 workplace testing programme.

 

The programme will remain open for businesses to register until 31 March and testing will remain free until the end of June.

 

An online portal is available at https://www.gov.uk/get-workplace-coronavirus-tests, for businesses to find out more about how to provide rapid workplace testing for their employees.  Businesses will be provided with all the information they need to plan and deliver their testing programme, along with promotional materials.

 

All local authorities in England are also now offering rapid lateral flow testing for small businesses if they can’t offer rapid workplace testing.
