Some of the preventive measures include: Bringing awareness about the Coronavirus and circulating accurate knowledge that will help in the prevention of the infection from the virus; offering a compulsory leave for employees who have returned from China; a work from home option for someone under a quarantine.

Many international conglomerates are restricting or declining travel plans of their employees and partners to mainland China, and even Hong Kong, and Taiwan. JPMorgan Chase, HSBC Holdings, Ford Motors, Apple, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Kraft Heinz are some of the organizations impacted. When employers join hands with employees to strike for a balance between preventive health measures and business requirements, it will allow the authorities to eradicate the threat of the Coronavirus
