With business slowly picking up and restrictions being eased, the President of the Suva Retailers Association Jitesh Patel says more than 90% of staff are back at work.
He says a few staff have been laid off due to the no jab no job policy.
Patel adds that about 80% of the staff are on reduced hours due to businesses operating for less hours but business is slowly picking up.
