As an employer your responsibilities are: 
To develop your plans, taking into account the demographics and vulnerabilities of your staff and those impacted by your operations. Personalise your plans to your workplace. Who should be required to come in to work? What commuting is needed? What about travelling for the work itself, whether that is long distance or local? What about measures to take within the workplace? What if your workplace or operations involve people being gathered together in close proximity (e.g. retailing, transportation or events)? 
 
To conduct suitable and sufficient risk assessments, covering risks to employees who are at work and also risks to non-employees arising from your operations 
 
Monitor and review to take into account the changing nature of the contagion and your control measures. These arrangements need to be recorded in writing for employers with five or more staff.
