Pay Pizza Hut Employees Hazardous Pay
Pizza Hut must provide employees with hazard pay, partners are being constantly exposed to COVID-19 and are not receiving additional pay to work in such conditions.
Why is this important?
The definition of hazard pay by the UN is:
"Hazard pay is a form of compensation granted to staff members who have been requested to remain and report for work in duty stations where very hazardous conditions, such as war or active hostilities, prevailed and where the evacuation of families and nonessential staff had taken place."
Pizza Hut is currently open to the public during this time to provide customers with a much needed service of providing pizza among many other items. Many pizza hut employees are worried and scared that during these hard times of a pandemic that they or their families will likely contract COVID-19 due to being in contact with customers during their shifts without enough proper PPE to otherwise protect them. Thus pizza hut should be providing employees with hazard pay to compensate them for their extra work and exposure to COVID-19.
