regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Even under ordinary circumstances, the ramifications of non-compliance are severe, and could include fines, personal liability, or imprisonment.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a

particularly straining on the employees responsible for a business\u2019s compliance.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\"><strong>Covid-19 complications<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Under Covid-19 pandemic conditions, the implications of non-compliance have further intensified \u2013 both from a human and a legal perspective.<\/p>\n<p>While many industries have been allowed to return to operation, this comes with conditions of adherence to strict hygiene protocols.<\/p>\n<p>This includes enacting social distancing, limiting the number of employees within defined areas, and using approved hand sanitisers to curb the spread of the virus in workplaces.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, the government made the wearing of masks compulsory in open public spaces and within office buildings.<\/p>\n<p>This means that companies, public transport drivers, building owners, and schools are responsible for occupants wearing masks.<\/p>\n<p>Unless these people take reasonable steps to ensure compliance, they face a \u201cfine or imprisonment for a period not exceeding six months or both such fine and imprisonment\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\"><strong>Using an automated system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It is
