Five to 10 people who were exposed may all become sick at the same time. Once that begins to occur, there's pandemonium in the departments because that's when they don't want to let anybody go home. It can have a huge impact on productivity. |
Our focus is on making sure they're not bringing illness back into the workplace. That way we protect both the fellow employees and the children. We tell people it is a fitness for duty issue. If you are in any way compromised, you need to take serious consideration as to whether or not you need to be at work. |
