How our employers are going to keep us safe as we cautiously emerge from lockdown

On Business Weekly we look at how our employers are going to keep us safe as we cautiously emerge from lockdown. If our temperatures are taken and our movements recorded, how will the sensitive balance between safety and privacy be maintained?  As soon as we’re back at work we might want a holiday - but will anywhere be open for tourists? We get the view from Spain, the second most visited country on the planet.  Plus the food supply chain in the US is in crisis as a result of Covid-19. We hear from farmers and unions who are worried for the future.  We find out about the new boss at video sharing social media giant TikTok and hear from the managing director of a puzzle maker who tells us why this old fashioned game is more popular than ever.  Presented by Lucy Burton.
