A long-standing ban on workers eating at their desks is set to be relaxed in France to help tackle the Covid-19 pandemic.

French labour law currently forbids “letting workers take their meal inside the work premises”, The Local reports.

However, this restriction will be temporarily lifted to make it easier for those who cannot work from home to eat in a safe environment.

The change will also make it easier for businesses to enforce Covid-19 rules in offices, the labour ministry said.
