The Public Service Commission (PSC) last year announced that government employees who contract the coronavirus in their line of duty will be entitled to financial benefits. Those who succumb to COVID-19 in their line of duty would be entitled to a full year’s salary paid to their family, on top of the usual benefits associated with their work. *More: Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
