The coronavirus continues to spread day by day across the world. As of today, Nepal has witnessed 5,760 cases of COVID infection: while 974 people have been discharged after a full recovery, 19 fatalities have been confirmed.
After almost 3 months long nationwide lockdown implemented by the Government of Nepal (from 24th March 2020), Nepal Government has now changed the modality of the lockdown in an attempt to gradually resume economic activities. The job market is undergoing an unprecedented shakeup as the pandemic has turned out to be more than just a health crisis. Thousands of people throughout the country have also seen an impact on their jobs, whether in different work patterns, reduced payments or even losing their job entirely.
