Walmart will start taking employees' temperatures and let them wear masks

Walmart will begin taking workers' temperatures at stores and warehouses before they begin their shifts. Any employee with a temperature above 100 degrees will be sent home to seek medical treatment, if necessary, but will be paid for showing up.The retailer will also make medical masks and gloves available for employees who want to wear them."They will be high-quality masks, but not N95 respirators — which should be reserved for at-risk healthcare workers," the company said.

Walmart , Amazon , grocery stores and other retailers staying open during the crisis are under enormous pressure to balance meeting customer demand with protecting their workforce. On Monday, a group of warehouse workers at Amazon and Instacart workers who fulfill grocery orders staged protests calling for their companies to improve safety protections, pay and benefits during the coronavirus crisis.

Don’t see how that is legal

that is so STUPID. and especially to be posted by CNN. some of the victims do not HAVE fevers at all, or have them much later. that is how people treated this in the beginning LETTING PEOPLE OFF OF PLANES AND SHIPS and into countries because they didn't have a fever.

I think that it necessary to fight against

Only now?!!

Durr......

FOR NOW..ALL THE CLOTHING STORES AND STORES LIKE THESE SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN AND EVERYONE SHOULD BE AT HOME QUARANTEENED. ONLY GROCERY STORES SHOULD STILL BE OPEN WHICH WALMART IS NOT. I WILL SAY THIS AS WALTER WOULD SAY IT 'PEOPLE GET YOUR ***T AND GET OUT!?AND GET YOUR ****S HOME

one for all and all for one

In addition, when a person has a cold or symptoms, it is necessary to have a habit of wearing a mask, This is public morality. 🙏I wish people safety and health!🌻🌞

People must mainly prevent and protect: wear masks and glasses when going out, wash hands often, disinfect cellphones, disinfect coats and shoes, reduce parties, and keep distance away ... be sure to take precautions.

Mighty white of those Waltons

Nothing like bleeding as much profit out of your staff before finally taking safety measures.
