Nedbank partially closed after positive Covid case

Some employees sent home

Staff at a financial services company in Douglas have been sent home after a case of Covid was detected.

Nedbank Private Wealth, which is based across two floors in St Mary's Court on Hill Street, has taken the decision as a precaution.

It's understood this happened after an employee came into the office after contracting the virus from a close contact, who's also tested positive.  

All vulnerable and at risk employees were asked to leave the building, but a number of staff on one of the floors have been told to remain at work.
