As a result of COVID-19, the Lebanese Government declared on March 15th, 2020 a state of general mobilization until March 29th, 2020; which was later extended till April 12th, 2020 (the “Government Decision”). The general mobilization included the suspension of all work in private enterprises (except for the production, storing and sale of basic consumables and pharmaceuticals (amongst others); as well as air, land and maritime transport); in addition to circulation restrictions. Evidently, such measures have had, and will continue to have logistical, social, economic and other impacts. Within that context, numerous (i) employers are unable to normally operate their businesses, and/or (ii) employees are unable to attend their workplace.
