The course on Covid-19 risk management for workers returning to work is a timely resource that aligns with the latest guidelines from the UK government and the NHS. As of the most recent updates, healthcare staff who exhibit symptoms of a respiratory infection are no longer required to test for Covid-19, and those who test positive are advised to return to work in accordance with locally decided protocols. Moreover, essential frontline staff may return to work following a negative PCR test if they have been in contact with Covid-19, provided they adhere to subsequent negative daily LFD tests for a minimum of 7 days and comply with appropriate use of PPE and other infection prevention and control measures. These guidelines reflect a shift towards managing Covid-19 alongside other respiratory infections, with an emphasis on local risk assessments and the balance of risks between staff absence and potential patient safety impacts. The course content should be updated regularly to reflect these evolving guidelines, ensuring that both employers and employees are equipped with the knowledge to navigate the challenges of returning to work during the ongoing pandemic.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION, NON-FICTION

Emily MacDonald joined 42 management and production company in 2019, working with Eugenie Furniss across her clients. She is now an agent in the Books Department, and is building her own list.

Send Emily a story with characters that just won't leave her and a narrative that pulls her in, keeping her immersed in the world well after she has finished reading. She reads across a wide-range and has a particular interest in: book club, high-concept crime/thriller, upmarket and literary fiction. 

In fiction, Emily would love to find a crime/thriller set within a subcult: a modern retelling of British folklore (think Kamila Shamsie’s Home Fire); an unconventional love story; and a character led journey of self-discovery (especially one set within a diasporic community). 

Emily is also looking for narrative non-fiction which immerses the reader into an untold true story (personal or historical), exploring a new point of view, and providing a compelling social commentary, with an investigative twist. Think the obsessive vein of Kirk W. Johnson or personal/political dispatches of Aidan Hartley. Emily wants her horizons to expand while she reads.

In both fiction and non-fiction, Emily loves stories woven into their surroundings, where the setting is as central a character as those who drive the narrative.

In both spheres, she is keen to hear from Scottish and regional voices with stories to tell.

Please note, Emily is not currently accepting submissions for Children's lit/YA and SFF.

Emily would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 - 2 page synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document.

(In addition to the paid sessions, Emily is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print).

You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.

The submission deadline is:  Wednesday 6th August 2025 at 12 noon UK BST

They also affect how people concentrate, make decisions, solve problems, process information, approach and complete tasks, retain new and complex information, develop new skills, and interact with others.
