"Hey, I’m hoping there is someone more knowledgeable than me who can assist here. I’m working with a guy on site for the next two weeks and we need to stay at some digs. Our work is construction (pre-construction to be specific) so we are allowed. What are the rules with sharing an apartment? Such as Airbnb. I would get two hotel rooms, but I cannot live off takeaway for 4 nights, I just need some vegetables! It’s the same story with lunches, I need a fridge as it’s not going to be cold enough in Bristol. Cheers!" You can share. There’s lots of local firms in my area (lodge type places) offering free accommodation to key workers and it’s expected to be shared | |||

"If you are sharing an office/workspace you can share an Airbnb, you're still at work." Absolute weapons grade horseshit. | |||

"Hotels and Airbnb accommodation is only supposed to be for people in the same household or support bubble. There's no such thing as a work bubble. If sharing a van, you should be following the "additional measures" by wearing masks and keeping the windows open." Agree with this. There is no such thing as a work bubble Just because you work with someone does not mean that you can break other guidelines | |||

"Hotels and Airbnb accommodation is only supposed to be for people in the same household or support bubble. There's no such thing as a work bubble.

If sharing a van, you should be following the "additional measures" by wearing masks and keeping the windows open. Should there be a work bubble? Maybe it's something the governments missed?" No, there's absolutely no need for work colleagues to stay overnight etc together. If two or more people need to stay away for work, it's very easy and safest to have separate rooms. Yes it costs more, but so does having your workforce off sick. Sharing a vehicle is also discouraged under the rules for obvious reasons. Basically, in the workplace, we're supposed to stay 2m apart etc and reduce interaction with others. The fact offices (a confined space) have the highest incidence of Covid outbreaks tells us that "bubbling" would only encourage those outbreaks further. Sharing s hotel room is even higher risk than sharing an office. Rooms are usually incredibly small and I've never stayed in a hotel where you can open the windows and get a breeze through it. So no, work bubbles should not be a thing. | |||

No. There are already a great range of bubbles that cover situations that are essential and unavoidable. Each member of a bubble connects potentially very easily into a huge web of interconnected families and individuals, where infection can roam. For many, work is already stopped or heavily changed in how its done, to allow it to continue. If businesses cannot adapt to remove the great risks of their staff and the public, they should join the other organisations, many of whom have not operated at all since last March. A guy wants vegetables for his diet and health but has a limited accommodation budget - if there's insufficient flexibility there, then it's not appropriate to be doing that work, if it means that society carries the burden of the business, via the virus being enabled. Accommodation providers have rules on which people are allowed to share rooms, which are legally mandated. Individuals have a duty to comply with this, just as employers do for their staff. | |||

Work bubbles still don't exist, but it sounds like the copper concerned had a realistic outlook on life and was happy that you had taken all reasonable precautions. | |||

Our work is construction (pre-construction to be specific) so we are allowed. What are the rules with sharing an apartment? Such as Airbnb. I would get two hotel rooms, but I cannot live off takeaway for 4 nights, I just need some vegetables! It’s the same story with lunches, I need a fridge as it’s not going to be cold enough in Bristol. Cheers!" Try and look for some serviced accommodation. That way you will get a kitchen and you can cook for yourself. It would be like having a house mate. Also in construction, and I have to share a place with a colleague for a week to and this is what we are doing. | |||

Sharing a bedroom should be avoided in the current circumstances and it's still the advice that separate accommodation (including bathrooms and kitchens) are what should be provided. It's the employer who should be providing it. | |||

Just because a policeman said it, it doesn't mean that it is correct or true. As someone else as said it sounds like he's listened and decided not to take action Work bubbles do not exist The employer should have a risk assessment in place regarding your covid safe practices If you are the employer and don't then... Good luck to you and your colleague. If one family gets covid then likely both will | |||

"Could be worse you could be travelling 3 hours per day to work and back with 4 in the van." You could be. But you shouldn't be. Absolutely no excuse, shit management and should be fined / closed down. | |||

"Could be worse you could be travelling 3 hours per day to work and back with 4 in the van." And we wonder why numbers aren’t going down fast ... I suspect most of the lack of significant reduction in cases is workplace transmission and then onwards into homes (and then onward with various support/childcare bubbles and the much higher number of kids in schools). Just hope employers are taking the measures seriously. | |||

It'd be bad business sense to have two sick staff and even worse, two dead staff. | |||

If one family gets covid then likely both will " He subcontracts to me on a selfemployed basis, no driving license and he has a missus and 2 kids, we discussed him working at the beginning of the first lock down and I left it up to him to chose to work. He decided a grand a week or sit at home and try and claim something of the goverment He choose come to work and as he has no driving licence he has to travel with me and we are both aware if one of us gets covid the other will have it and will have to isolate accordingly. | |||
