12 Steps for Staying Safe Working From Home

Daily Update 03 June

The coronavirus outbreak has changed life for everybody. Our homes have become workplaces and places of education as the whole family is encouraged to stay at home together. Home has always been the place where most accidents happen. In the current situation when we are spending all our time there, the risk of accidents is likely to increase.
