Folks in Asia who are no longer / never went into lockdown, how are you working? Are you still working from home or are you going into the office? Have your companies introduced any extra H&S / testing measures to make you feel comfortable about coming in?

Do you do all time zones?

In Singapore. All work from home still. Singapore only lets you out to buy groceries or to exercise. Both require a mask unless you are doing rigorous exercise. Only essential services can operate (with restrictions - restaurants can only do take out, some are banned like bubble tea or non hot meals). And of course consulting is not essential service so at home until at least 1 June

Here in China. Work from home is encouraged, but you can still choose to work at office. It also differs by company. My spouse’s company requires people to work from office and wear masks.

In HK, besides wearing masks, life goes on pretty much as usual. A fair bit of people come to the office regularly.

My family is in South Korea. Everyone (literally everyone) wears masks to commute to work. Doesn’t seem like there are social distancing laws because folks are out at restaurants, clubs, etc.

Company doesn’t need to introduce testing measures because the government offers free testing and contact tracing to nip suspected cases in the bud.
