Narrative:
With the spread of the covid-19 virus still spreading throughout the world; we here at company need to do our part to help stop the spread of the virus to each other; our families; friends and the communities we live in. After looking at all the time clock areas I noticed that there are no hand sanitizing stations there. We hourly employees have to use our hands to clock both in and out and that's just another potential point of contact for the spread of the virus and not just at our time clocks but also point of entry to the sterile work areas including the ramp. Today when I asked for a hand sanitizing wipe packet; the person behind the equipment counter said they were all out and they didn't have any alcohol wipes either.
