An agent has revealed that it has had two cases of coronavirus and that all staff are now working from home.

JLL, largely a commercial business although with a residential arm, wrote to clients yesterday to tell them.

The email, from CEO Chris Ireland, says that on Friday, the business tested the closure of its commercial offices.

Over the weekend, two members of staff tested positive, and as a precaution all staff in “our UK corporate offices” are now working from home.

Contacts of the members of staff who have tested positive for coronavirus have been made aware.
