It’s not recommended to have prolonged contact with anyone without masks. Opening the inside cafe opens up not only prolonged contact, but prolonged contact, as people take their masks off to drink, eat, talk, sneeze, and cough. The CDC still recommends masks and no prolonged contact with people. Baristas are going to be put into a position to pick employment or risking their lives. Please keep inside dining closed down until there is minimal covid infections in the United States or a vaccine most Americans will get. It seems to be a greedy move to open cafes and subject baristas to illness or death. Please keep cafes closed to reduce the spread of covid! It is not time to let go of caution .

Because we have been there on the front line from the beginning working long and hard extra hours and risking getting sick with covid or bringing it home to our kids and now from what I hear quite a few Payless stores are cutting workers hours and we cant make a good living off our normal wage

This is important to all essential worker for going above and beyond is such a trying time. We put our health and mental health at risk daily.

There should be no obstacles to people staying away from work if they could possibly be COVID positive

They are risking health for themselves,their families to serve public and continue to make Starbucks a successful corporation.

SAFETY! Several employees at facility have tested positive and facility ran out of mask

Lots of store’s hours are still reduced, and many partners can’t get the hours that they need to pay bills and live their lives. Partners cannot enforce that customers wear masks, and don’t know if they have been following proper health and safety protocol. Due to this fact, partners are risking their health and safety to serve coffee.

Workers are at risk of becoming infected with the virus from their coworkers.

This is important because i had never missed a day or been late and i feel like i am being mistreated

We, the undersigned workers of Jimmy John's are concerned about the COVID-19 Health Crisis, and are worried about how our current work situation is putting us and others directly in harm’s way. We do not feel it is safe to be allowing customers to continue coming into the lobby when the CDC and medical community agree that we have not yet even reached the peak of this crisis. Even with the precautions that management has taken to make things safer, the reality is that our stores are mostly small enclosed spaces, COVID-19 is highly contagious, and cases in Indiana are continuing to rise by the hundreds each day. Also, our state does not have regularly accessible testing so the actual number of confirmed cases and deaths are likely far higher than what they are reported as now. We understand that sales are down, but we believe that management must put the lives of its customers and staff over its own profit. If one of us gets sick and is unable to take paid time off or the lobby is opened then they have significantly greater risk of spreading the virus to the rest of the staff and to customers. We cannot in good conscience put ourselves, our families, and our customers at even greater risk by keeping the lobby open and increasing the amount of direct contact that could likely spread the virus further. The close contact at the register and in the lobby means that anyone taking orders and drivers returning from deliveries come well within six feet of many customers and put both parties at risk.

Walmart is giving immunocompromised workers 14 days off without penalty of termination. The attendance policy is that we can only miss five days in a 6 month period before we are terminated whether you are ill with the flu or not. With COVID19 our days should be extended.

I, like most Amazon employees, have a family to come home to and we cannot afford to stay in hotels like some healthcare workers are having the opportunity to do. I have a fiance, a 6 year old and a 10 month old at home and everyday I go into work I feel like I'm risking their lives to help deliver Amazon products to many families getting paid more than me on unemployment and I feel that is very unfair. Especially since my fiance and 6 year old both have asthma and are at a higher risk, I do not feel that Amazon has our health and saftely at heart, just their bottom line and trying to get back to their 2 day delivery promises to its customers.
