Obras Publicas Municipal, 00777 Juncos, Puerto Rico
Last Monday, July 20, 2020, no employees were assigned to check their temperature or apply hand sanitizer. The next day, understood on July 21, 2020, the news spread that, they had tested positive for COVID-19. On the morning of Wednesday, July 22, 2020, an employee meeting was held indicating that there was a colleague missing for eight (8) days, as he felt a fever. He does not know if it was due to COVID-19 because the employee had not been tested. The meeting ends and I turn to him and ask him if he had any knowledge of what was going on. I tell him that I was concerned about my health and that of my family, to check if the information was correct. On August 4, 2020, they decide to change the protocol, because there was a complaint prior to OSHA. However, they are accepting visitors without taking your temperature or sanitizing their hands. It should be added that when the Municipality decided to reopen to begin operations, (26, 27, 28 and 29 May 2020) they sent us to perform the swab test but they told us that when we did the test we had to return immediately to work, even without having the result. Those who waited for the result to do things in law.Alleged Hazards: 1, Employees Exposed: 25
