There is some confusion on the relationship between Covid and mutual funds e employees are not sure what will become of them if they contract the virus or have contact with a positive. How to apply the days in which, for the directives of the government, it is necessary to stay at home? The scenarios are numerous and the details, as well as with quarantine and isolation, change depending on the personal situation. To try to orient ourselves, we asked for some clarification a Giulietta Bergamaschi, founding labor lawyer of the law firm Lexellent.
Before getting to the doubts regarding the Covid and mutual funds issue, it is significant to remember that in the current state of things (January 14, 2022) the Government is not inclined to consider quarantine – a measure that derives from contact with a positive – as a period of illness.
What does this mean in practice? That the INPS will not be responsible for the amount that the worker should receive on the days in which he cannot go to work; in some cases, you know, you can work remotely, not actually interrupting your business. But for who, for example, do you work in a bar or a clothing store? Difficult to make a cappuccino via Skype. If there are no changes, the salary for the quarantine days will presumably be borne by the companies.
“The government’s decision not to extend the equalization of the quarantine period of private sector workers to disease, recognized until December 31, 2021, is in line with the simultaneous reduction of quarantine and isolation periods for vaccinated subjects and with the ” introduction of the self-surveillance measure for asymptomatic subjects who have completed the vaccination cycle for less than 120 days or have carried out the third dose of vaccine, in the logic of the most recent government measures that go in the direction of encouraging vaccination “, explains Bergamaschi .
So how to deal with sick days in case of contact with a positive or contagion? Below you will find a small vademecum to orient yourself among various doubts, created thanks to Giulietta Bergamaschi and the labor lawyers of Lexellent.
