Covid-19: Truck drivers visiting port won't be tested

From Morning Report, 6:38 am on 8 September 2020

Under the new government mandatory testing requirements for the border, truck drivers collecting freight from the ports are not required to undergo a Covid-19 test.

As of Monday, port staff deemed 'high risk' are now required to get a test every two weeks.

Chris Carr is the Managing Director of freight company, Carr-Haslam Limited.

He told Morning Report producer, Lily della Porta, how he is adapting his business in response to the government's testing requirements.
