2 years ago
1. The drive up covid testing site does not have a properly covered area. Employees are in the rain, wind and cold without proper covering or protection. PPE is cracked and does not provide proper protection for testing. Employees have to walk to different buildings to drop
off specimens and get new orders. 2. An employee became sick on Friday, they tested positive for covid-19 the following Monday. A week later the employee returned to work. So, 7 days from positive test and 10 days from symptom onset. This employee was working the flu clinic, they were in contact with many patients and other employees the Friday they first developed symptoms. Only the immediate office setting the employee worked in was notified of the positive coworker. No other coworkers or patients (from working the flu clinic, and the employer visiting other offices) were notified of this exposure. When management was asked about it, employees were told it was not any of their business. It was asked that the employee remain in their home base office setting for the remaining 14-day period as other coworkers did not feel comfortable with her being in their office. The employee did not remain in their office and was seen in many other healthcare provider officers.
