Answer- While none of the relevant notifications/circulars issued by the Central and State Governments so far directs mandatory disclosures from employers, if there is a confirmed case of COVID-19, out of abundant caution, perhaps the employer should choose to inform the Government.
The MoHFW’s helpline number +91-11-2397 8046 and their email addresses are ncov2019@gov.in and ncov2019@gmail.com .
