As the public is aware, as of today, March 17, 2020, all individuals inclusive of guest workers arriving into Bermuda are mandatorily required to self-quarantine for 14 days. This means – stay home. Practise social distancing. More specifically any guest worker found to be violating the self-quarantine order will immediately have their work permit revoked.”
