A law requiring workplaces in Wales to take precautions for Covid will be axed from Monday.
It is one of two remaining Covid measures the Welsh government has in place.
Rules requiring facemasks in health and social care settings will remain in force for at least another three weeks.
First Minister Mark Drakeford said the mask rule would help control the spread of Covid where "some of the most vulnerable people" are treated or live.
The move to scrap restrictions on businesses comes despite recent swab survey data suggesting record infections.
Mr Drakeford said his government's decision "doesn't mean the pandemic is over".
He added: "Unfortunately coronavirus is still with us - we've seen a spike in infections over the last month, with large numbers of people falling ill and a surge in hospital admissions.
"We hope we are beginning to turn the corner. But it's really important we all continue to take steps to protect ourselves and each other."
I’m sure Drakeford wants Covid to be around as long as possible. That little bit of power. Yes, Covid hadn’t gone but it’s getting weaker and weaker.
Not sure where he gets this surge in covid hospital admission from it certainly not happening here..... the surge is in people being admitted to hospital because they haven't been treated for original ailments but
have covid when tested.... and this is same all over UK ... talk about manipulating things he is an expert at it.
Agree 100%
