The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has ordered staff in the domestic taxes department to resume working from its premises with immediate effect. An internal memo signed by the KRA Commissioner of Domestic Taxes Elizabeth Meyo said that the authority will only allow workers with preexisting conditions to stay home. “KRA has implemented government guidelines to protect staff against the spread of Covid-19, such as social distancing with one-third of staff working in the office as others proceeded on leave,” she said. A previous memo had asked KRA staff employees to work in two-week shift to avoid the spread of Covid-19. Meanwhile, KRA reminded Kenyans to file their 2019 annual tax returns before the June 30 deadline.
