If you are not affected by coronavirus and are not required to self-isolate, you will be required to look and apply for jobs, and/or do activities to help you become job ready. However the government has reduced the amount of jobs you are required to apply for given the situation.

If you’re isolated at home because of coronavirus, you can be granted a Major Personal Crisis exemption for 14 days, which can be extended. This means you are exempt from having to look for work, though you still have an obligation to remain ‘job ready’ for when you are no longer isolated.
