If someone tests positive in your workplace

I cannot see a Government or NHS link with advice. I would assume the 14 day isolation, but how do I pay staff?

Do they claim £94.25 per week or can I furlough them?

Small business' do not have the HR, legal support, etc. to answer these questions.

Yeah, SSP, and everyone in the workplace who may have come into contact with said person !

There is a massive problem with the level of statutory sick pay in this country meaning many people can not afford to self isolate for 14 days.
