"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced Wednesday that the city’s shelter-in-place order would be extended until May 1, in a continued effort to “flatten the curve” and slow the spread of the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Residents of the Bay Area have been ordered to shelter in their homes for more than two weeks now, and six counties, including San Francisco, have extended the original order to May 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, San Francisco is reporting its seventh death from COVID-19, and 67 people are currently hospitalized with the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed spoke with KQED’s Tara Siler about why San Francisco hasn’t seen the same spike in cases as New York City. Plus, she discussed the ongoing shelter-in-place order and how it might impact the city’s financial future, as well as the current situation at Laguna Honda Hospital, where an outbreak of the coronavirus put the facility \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Laguna-Honda-orders-full-lockdown-following-5-15157239.php\">on lockdown\u003c/a> last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>This interview has been edited for clarity and length.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#hcw\">Health Care Workers\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#sip\">Shelter in Place\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#economic\">Economic Impacts\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#laguna\">Laguna Honda Hospital\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch3>Health Care Workers\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#hcw\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>Some experts are saying that there seemed to be some signs that these stay-at-home efforts are working in the Bay Area, and maybe even across California. What is your assessment at this point? How is San Francisco doing?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Grant Colfax, director of the San Francisco Department of Public Health, said that it’s definitely too soon to tell. I think we’re fortunate in that we’re not seeing the numbers grow as rapidly, but I also think it has a lot to do with the fact that people are complying with the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, this is the time where we can’t ease up. We also know that it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, I think that it’s important for people to know that it’s definitely having an impact. And it’s yet to be determined as to what the impact will be, because we have not necessarily experienced the worst of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you think that San Francisco’s hospitals are prepared for that peak, despite concerns from health care workers?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think what we’re trying to do is make sure we have what we need. We have made a request for 1,500 more ventilators, because that’s what we need. We need an additional 5,000 beds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think, ultimately, we’re going to have some real challenges with our health system if we don’t continue to comply with the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Shelter-in-Place\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#sip\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>You’ve been ordering people to maintain their distance from the very beginning. How do you adjust this message over time? Especially for young people who may find it really hard to maintain as time goes by?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As time goes on, it’s going to be even more challenging. But the fact is, once we let up, that’s when we’re going to experience the worst of it. We are trying to prevent things from getting terrible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the need to socially distance ourselves from one another has everything to do with making sure that people don’t die and that we’re able to help those who end up sick. And that’s going to continue to be a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, I don’t want people to take any of this for granted. I’m hopeful that people will understand and continue to comply.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Economic Impacts\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#economic\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>San Francisco, along with other Bay Area counties, extended the shelter-in-place order and increased the restrictions — closing off playgrounds, dog parks and residential construction.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you concerned this ban on residential construction might worsen the city’s affordability crisis? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m definitely concerned. And what we’re trying to do is work with our county health officer to get clarity on some of those concerns. Because, yes, when this is over we want to make sure we have new housing. We want to make sure that we have places for people to live. We already have a very challenging homeless population as is. And as a result of this unanticipated pandemic, things could get worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, we’re definitely concerned. But we also understand and respect the public health experts who are making these recommendations. Protecting public health has to be the priority, as hard as it is on our economy, on our housing market, on all of these things. We have to prioritize public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The San Francisco controller announced a pretty grim picture for the budget over the next two fiscal years — up to a $1.7 billion shortfall. What kind of cuts do you foresee, and how is this going to affect the city’s efforts to address the homeless crisis? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think it’s going to be very challenging. And San Francisco is not unique in this challenge — I mean, this is going to be happening all over the country. We have reserves, but reserves are not going to sustain us. We’re going to have to make some hard decisions. I’m setting up a task force now to explore what we plan to do as a city, financially, to recover.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Laguna Honda Hospital\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#laguna\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>You reported during a news conference earlier today that nine staff and two patients have tested positive for COVID-19 at Laguna Honda Hospital. You’ve announced that there’s some \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/federal-state-health-officials-visit-laguna-honda-after-coronavirus-outbreak/\">federal assistance, a team, coming in\u003c/a> to make recommendations.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The state Department of Public Health \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/FluAndRespiratoryIllnessOutbreakQuicksheet.pdf\">defines an outbreak\u003c/a> at an institution like Laguna Honda as one case of an infectious respiratory illness, plus a second within 72 hours. \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>By that definition, it seems that the outbreak at Laguna Honda started much earlier than the chief health officer called it.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would defer to Dr. Colfax on the specifics around any health-related questions or health-related guidelines and comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But I will say that this is something that we have been focused on for some time — specifically early on when we terminated visitors to the campus and put in the kinds of systems to help protect people. I think it’s important that we focus on trying to keep people safe and trying to protect the residents of Laguna Honda and the staff. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, [the team is] analyzing exactly what the best plan is moving forward. And until we receive that information, we will continue to do everything we can to maintain social distancing, to provide resources to the patients and to make sure that we’re complying with all the regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How challenging is this going to be in such a sprawling facility? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is going to be challenging. Patients, for the most part, can be kept apart with our social distancing policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The challenge, of course, is a lot of the people there are dependent upon … the nurses and the doctors and some of the social workers of the facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I think that there were some [safety protocols] that were already in place and then we enhanced those. And, in the meantime, we’ll keep implementing them until there are further recommendations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Looking back, do you think that the health department should have done more to control the infections earlier?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laguna Honda was on our radar screen from the very beginning. So before this was brought to anyone’s attention, whether there was a patient or employee infected, there were already limitations around visitors and strict monitoring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m comfortable that what was implemented at the time was sufficient. And we will get recommendations in order to make sure that problem doesn’t persist.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Plus, she discussed the ongoing shelter-in-place order and how it might impact the city’s financial future, as well as the current situation at Laguna Honda Hospital, where an outbreak of the coronavirus put the facility \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Laguna-Honda-orders-full-lockdown-following-5-15157239.php\">on lockdown\u003c/a> last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>This interview has been edited for clarity and length.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#hcw\">Health Care Workers\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#sip\">Shelter in Place\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#economic\">Economic Impacts\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#laguna\">Laguna Honda Hospital\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch3>Health Care Workers\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#hcw\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>Some experts are saying that there seemed to be some signs that these stay-at-home efforts are working in the Bay Area, and maybe even across California.

I think we’re fortunate in that we’re not seeing the numbers grow as rapidly, but I also think it has a lot to do with the fact that people are complying with the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, this is the time where we can’t ease up. We also know that it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, I think that it’s important for people to know that it’s definitely having an impact. And it’s yet to be determined as to what the impact will be, because we have not necessarily experienced the worst of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you think that San Francisco’s hospitals are prepared for that peak, despite concerns from health care workers?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think what we’re trying to do is make sure we have what we need. We have made a request for 1,500 more ventilators, because that’s what we need. We need an additional 5,000 beds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think, ultimately, we’re going to have some real challenges with our health system if we don’t continue to comply with the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Shelter-in-Place\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#sip\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>You’ve been ordering people to maintain their distance from the very beginning. How do you adjust this message over time? Especially for young people who may find it really hard to maintain as time goes by?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As time goes on, it’s going to be even more challenging. But the fact is, once we let up, that’s when we’re going to experience the worst of it. We are trying to prevent things from getting terrible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the need to socially distance ourselves from one another has everything to do with making sure that people don’t die and that we’re able to help those who end up sick. And that’s going to continue to be a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, I don’t want people to take any of this for granted. I’m hopeful that people will understand and continue to comply.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Economic Impacts\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#economic\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>San Francisco, along with other Bay Area counties, extended the shelter-in-place order and increased the restrictions — closing off playgrounds, dog parks and residential construction.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you concerned this ban on residential construction might worsen the city’s affordability crisis? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m definitely concerned. And what we’re trying to do is work with our county health officer to get clarity on some of those concerns. Because, yes, when this is over we want to make sure we have new housing. We want to make sure that we have places for people to live. We already have a very challenging homeless population as is. And as a result of this unanticipated pandemic, things could get worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, we’re definitely concerned. But we also understand and respect the public health experts who are making these recommendations. Protecting public health has to be the priority, as hard as it is on our economy, on our housing market, on all of these things. We have to prioritize public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The San Francisco controller announced a pretty grim picture for the budget over the next two fiscal years — up to a $1.7 billion shortfall. What kind of cuts do you foresee, and how is this going to affect the city’s efforts to address the homeless crisis? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think it’s going to be very challenging. And San Francisco is not unique in this challenge — I mean, this is going to be happening all over the country. We have reserves, but reserves are not going to sustain us. We’re going to have to make some hard decisions. I’m setting up a task force now to explore what we plan to do as a city, financially, to recover.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Laguna Honda Hospital\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"#laguna\">\u003c/a>\u003cstrong>You reported during a news conference earlier today that nine staff and two patients have tested positive for COVID-19 at Laguna Honda Hospital. You’ve announced that there’s some \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/federal-state-health-officials-visit-laguna-honda-after-coronavirus-outbreak/\">federal assistance, a team, coming in\u003c/a> to make recommendations.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The state Department of Public Health \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/FluAndRespiratoryIllnessOutbreakQuicksheet.pdf\">defines an outbreak\u003c/a> at an institution like Laguna Honda as one case of an infectious respiratory illness, plus a second within 72 hours. \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>By that definition, it seems that the outbreak at Laguna Honda started much earlier than the chief health officer called it.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would defer to Dr. Colfax on the specifics around any health-related questions or health-related guidelines and comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But I will say that this is something that we have been focused on for some time — specifically early on when we terminated visitors to the campus and put in the kinds of systems to help protect people. I think it’s important that we focus on trying to keep people safe and trying to protect the residents of Laguna Honda and the staff. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, [the team is] analyzing exactly what the best plan is moving forward. And until we receive that information, we will continue to do everything we can to maintain social distancing, to provide resources to the patients and to make sure that we’re complying with all the regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How challenging is this going to be in such a sprawling facility? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is going to be challenging. Patients, for the most part, can be kept apart with our social distancing policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The challenge, of course, is a lot of the people there are dependent upon … the nurses and the doctors and some of the social workers of the facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I think that there were some [safety protocols] that were already in place and then we enhanced those. And, in the meantime, we’ll keep implementing them until there are further recommendations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Looking back, do you think that the health department should have done more to control the infections earlier?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laguna Honda was on our radar screen from the very beginning. So before this was brought to anyone’s attention, whether there was a patient or employee infected, there were already limitations around visitors and strict monitoring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Whole Foods workers across the nation have received similar messages when one of their co-workers at the Amazon.com-owned grocery chain tests positive for COVID-19, including recently in \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/socal/daily-pilot/news/story/2020-03-26/worker-at-h-b-whole-foods-market-tests-positive-for-coronavirus\">Huntington Beach\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://abc7chicago.com/whole-foods-coronavirus-sauganash-chicago/6061435/\">Chicago\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, no Whole Foods stores in the U.S. have been shut down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement emailed to KQED Monday, a Whole Foods spokesperson confirmed that a worker at the Stanyan Street store had tested positive for COVID-19. The spokesperson said the safety of workers and customers is Whole Foods' top priority, and that the Stanyan Street location performed an additional cleaning and disinfection on top of enhanced sanitation practices already in place at all stores during the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As long as the crisis continues, Whole Foods says it is \"enhancing its daily cleanliness and sanitation protocols\" at all of its stores, operating under social distancing guidelines and closing stores up to two hours early to give workers more time to restock shelves, sanitize and rest.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘They Don't Want Us to Tell Customers’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Still, two Whole Foods employees at the Stanyan Street location told KQED they have concerns about the store’s transparency with both workers and customers. The workers spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of losing their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I'm super concerned because regardless of whether or not I am a healthy young man, I don't know how the coronavirus is going to affect me or the people that I know, and the people who I live with,” said one worker who attended the Saturday meeting. “They don't want us to tell customers. They want us to direct customers to our store team leader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The worker said management told employees that the infected person was last at the store on March 15, almost exactly two weeks before employees were told about the person's positive COVID-19 test result on March 28.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The question is, why wasn't [that person] in the store for the last two weeks and when did they actually get notified that [that person] had coronavirus?” the employee wondered. “Whether or not they think we should be quarantined doesn't mean we don't think that we should be quarantined if we were in contact with that person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another employee said she was never notified by management and had to hear about the confirmed case from coworkers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people who are working at Whole Foods don't really have a choice but to go to work because at the end of the day, we all still have to pay rent,” said the employee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The employees KQED spoke with said three workers who may have had contact with the infected worker were sent home Friday to self-quarantine – but that those three workers were back at work on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Whole Foods spokesperson said employees at all stores have been asked to self-quarantine for two weeks if they had close contact with a coworker who is confirmed to have the coronavirus. Employees will get two weeks of pay if they isolate after contact with a confirmed case – but only if the self-quarantine is recommended by Whole Foods or a health care professional, the spokesperson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the store cannot disclose details on coronavirus cases to respect workers' privacy, the spokesperson said Whole Foods gives two weeks of paid time off to workers who test positive for COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"coronavirus\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Workers Demand More Protections\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/WholeWorkerWFM?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor\">Whole Worker\u003c/a>, an advocacy group that describes itself as a \"grassroots movement\" of Whole Foods team members working to unionize, spearheaded a \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2020-03-31/whole-foods-coronavirus-sick-out\">nationwide sickout on Tuesday\u003c/a> to demand paid leave for all workers who self-quarantine, the immediate shutdown of any store where a worker tests positive for the coronavirus and hazard pay of double wages while the crisis continues. Whole Foods has relaxed its attendance policy in light of the pandemic, and Whole Worker said employees participating in Tuesday's sickout can do so without fear of reprisal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is disappointing that a small but vocal group, many of whom are not employed by Whole Foods Market, have been given a platform to inaccurately portray the collective voice of our 95,000 plus Team Members who are heroically showing up every day to provide our communities with an essential service,\" said a Whole Foods spokesperson Tuesday in an email, in reference to Whole Worker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whole Foods has been paying workers $2 per hour more than their usual wages in light of the coronavirus pandemic. But the Stanyan Street employees said that's not enough to compensate for the risk they're taking, and, echoing the Whole Worker demands, said they want hazard pay double their wages and a temporary shutdown of the store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They send us an email of their sales every day and they are killing it right now,” said one employee. “Just on a store level, they've already made enough to probably cover everyone's PTO for two weeks while they sanitize the store and make sure no one else has it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two employees are concerned by how store leadership is communicating sanitization protocols to employees in general and want every worker to have \"extensive training\" on sanitization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're supposed to be sanitizing our registers, I guess, every 30 minutes to an hour. But I was told by my team leader and by my store team leader that it was OK to be doing it every three hours. And then I hear again later that it's actually a different way,\" said one employee. \"There's all these different things on our online portal website of how to actually sanitize correctly [which] I've never actually been told. And I'm the one in charge of it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two employees aren’t attending work Tuesday to participate in the sickout.

Whole Foods workers across the nation have received similar messages when one of their co-workers at the Amazon.com-owned grocery chain tests positive for COVID-19, including recently in \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/socal/daily-pilot/news/story/2020-03-26/worker-at-h-b-whole-foods-market-tests-positive-for-coronavirus\">Huntington Beach\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://abc7chicago.com/whole-foods-coronavirus-sauganash-chicago/6061435/\">Chicago\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, no Whole Foods stores in the U.S. have been shut down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement emailed to KQED Monday, a Whole Foods spokesperson confirmed that a worker at the Stanyan Street store had tested positive for COVID-19. The spokesperson said the safety of workers and customers is Whole Foods' top priority, and that the Stanyan Street location performed an additional cleaning and disinfection on top of enhanced sanitation practices already in place at all stores during the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As long as the crisis continues, Whole Foods says it is \"enhancing its daily cleanliness and sanitation protocols\" at all of its stores, operating under social distancing guidelines and closing stores up to two hours early to give workers more time to restock shelves, sanitize and rest.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘They Don't Want Us to Tell Customers’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Still, two Whole Foods employees at the Stanyan Street location told KQED they have concerns about the store’s transparency with both workers and customers. The workers spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of losing their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I'm super concerned because regardless of whether or not I am a healthy young man, I don't know how the coronavirus is going to affect me or the people that I know, and the people who I live with,” said one worker who attended the Saturday meeting. “They don't want us to tell customers. They want us to direct customers to our store team leader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The worker said management told employees that the infected person was last at the store on March 15, almost exactly two weeks before employees were told about the person's positive COVID-19 test result on March 28.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The question is, why wasn't [that person] in the store for the last two weeks and when did they actually get notified that [that person] had coronavirus?” the employee wondered. “Whether or not they think we should be quarantined doesn't mean we don't think that we should be quarantined if we were in contact with that person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Employees will get two weeks of pay if they isolate after contact with a confirmed case – but only if the self-quarantine is recommended by Whole Foods or a health care professional, the spokesperson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the store cannot disclose details on coronavirus cases to respect workers' privacy, the spokesperson said Whole Foods gives two weeks of paid time off to workers who test positive for COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Whole Foods has relaxed its attendance policy in light of the pandemic, and Whole Worker said employees participating in Tuesday's sickout can do so without fear of reprisal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is disappointing that a small but vocal group, many of whom are not employed by Whole Foods Market, have been given a platform to inaccurately portray the collective voice of our 95,000 plus Team Members who are heroically showing up every day to provide our communities with an essential service,\" said a Whole Foods spokesperson Tuesday in an email, in reference to Whole Worker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whole Foods has been paying workers $2 per hour more than their usual wages in light of the coronavirus pandemic. But the Stanyan Street employees said that's not enough to compensate for the risk they're taking, and, echoing the Whole Worker demands, said they want hazard pay double their wages and a temporary shutdown of the store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They send us an email of their sales every day and they are killing it right now,” said one employee. “Just on a store level, they've already made enough to probably cover everyone's PTO for two weeks while they sanitize the store and make sure no one else has it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two employees are concerned by how store leadership is communicating sanitization protocols to employees in general and want every worker to have \"extensive training\" on sanitization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're supposed to be sanitizing our registers, I guess, every 30 minutes to an hour. But I was told by my team leader and by my store team leader that it was OK to be doing it every three hours. And then I hear again later that it's actually a different way,\" said one employee. \"There's all these different things on our online portal website of how to actually sanitize correctly [which] I've never actually been told. And I'm the one in charge of it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two employees aren’t attending work Tuesday to participate in the sickout.
