Rapid testing for businesses that will remain open during the three-week lockdown begins on Monday, the health ministry announced Sunday.
The sampling will be carried out at mobile units at points within industrial zones, but also at other locations where there are companies that remain in operation.
The ministry said the aim was to stop the chain of infection in the workplace to prevent transmission.
It will lead to the suspension of businesses in some cases where positives are found, the ministry warned.
