Likewise the employer should also see it is out of the hands of the employee and be willing to work with them. 

Employee is fully aware of the risk that they are taking. Attitudes will vary depending on the individual circumstances. 

I was just thinking that - the employee is taking the risk by going; it's entirely in their hands. 
If they don't want the risk, they don't need to travel. 

If there's no advice against travelling when they are due to depart it's a choice of:
Option A - Don't go on holiday and lose the money you paid for the holiday
Option B - Go on holiday and hope advice doesn't change but if it does risk losing pay from work.

Don't forget a lot of people booked holidays before COVID-19 became a global pandemic so didn't know there would be such high risks to booking a holiday.  Even when the volcanic ash cloud caused flight disruption it didn't mean people missed two weeks of work.

Unless you had the sense to book a package with British Airways, in these circumstances you would qualify for a voucher to the value of your holiday.
