Question: What can we do to protect clinically vulnerable people in the workplace at factories , plants or warehouses?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Labs and research facilities
section_headers: 2. Who should go to work?
2.1 Protecting people who are at higher risk
section_content: Objective: To protect clinically vulnerable and clinically extremely
vulnerable individuals.
Clinically extremely vulnerable individuals have been strongly advised not to
work outside the home.
Clinically vulnerable individuals, who are at higher risk of severe illness
(for example, people with some pre existing conditions), have been asked to
take extra care in observing social distancing and should be helped to work
from home, either in their current role or in an alternative role.
If clinically vulnerable (but not extremely clinically vulnerable) individuals
cannot work from home, they should be offered the option of the safest
available on site roles, enabling them to stay 2m away from others. If they
have to spend time within 2m of others, you should carefully assess whether
this involves an acceptable level of risk. As for any workplace risk you must
take into account specific duties to those with protected characteristics,
including, for example, expectant mothers who are, as always, entitled to
suspension on full pay if suitable roles cannot be found. Particular attention
should also be paid to people who live with clinically extremely vulnerable
individuals.
Steps that will usually be needed:


Provide support for workers around mental health and wellbeing. This could include guidance or telephone support.


See current guidance for advice on who is in the clinically extremely vulnerable and clinically vulnerable groups.



Reviewer feedback on this answer:
It's the same answer as #1. They both answer the question well.
There is a good amount of information about people that are vulnerable, but the info is not specific to those working in the places that the question is asking about.
