Regulatory Report
930 Pleasant Valley Road, Harrisonburg, 22801 Virginia, United States
1. Over the last 2 weeks there have been 50 plus people sent home from work due to possible Covid-19 exposure, of which 30 cases have been confirmed. In some cases, whole shifts on machines are currently home due to exposure/possible exposure, as well as some confirmed cases. 2. Management and the HR Department are the ones determining who goes out due to exposure, how long they are out and when they can come back. In some cases, they send workers home and require testing, others they send home without requiring testing because of no symptoms, and others they do not even let go home. They are not sending everyone who is exposed, home. They are basing this determination on whether they can still operate at full capacity with those employees gone or not, rather than by CDC guidelines and workers health in mind. This week alone, close to 12 employees have been sent home. 3. The virus and exposure is increasing at a fast rate, but management still isn't disinfecting areas like they are supposed to do.Alleged Hazards: 3, Employees Exposed: 50
