What is the process for ensuring the safety of your employees?

We are deeply appreciative of the heroic work of our warehouse and delivery teams to keep our country fed in a time of need and we are doing what we can to support them. The safety of our team and our customers has always been and continues to be our top priority. 

Here are the steps we're taking to ensure the safest working conditions for our teams: 

• All employees have their temperatures checked before entering our facilities 
• We provide the following personal protection equipment (PPE) to all Operations staff
• Face masks 
• Gloves 
• Hand sanitizer
• Sneeze guards 
• Sanitizing wipes and/or fresh gloves 
• Requiring that employees who are not fully vaccinated wear masks and stand 6 feet apart from one another at all times and posting signage to indicate proper social distancing in common areas
• Regular disinfection of our high-touch areas and break areas between shifts, and weekly full facility and fleet disinfection
• The cleaning products we use are recommended by both the CDC and FDA to specifically sanitize food-safe environments
• The 400ppm PAA solution is approved to disinfect against COVID-19 while keeping our Organic certification
• Posting CDC guidelines and company updates at all locations as they evolve
• A Wellbeing Champion program in each of our pack centers where one employee per shift is focused solely on ensuring their teammates are keeping a safe distance between each other, and are washing and sanitizing their hands regularly

Here are the actions we take should an employee test positive for COVID-19:

• We take immediate action to get the affected employee support, including medical care and paid leave (up to 26 weeks)
• We fully and disinfect the impacted warehouse or vehicle per CDC guidelines
• We alert all employees who might have been in contact with the employee and remind them of our sick leave policy, which includes two additional weeks of paid time off
• In alignment with our internal policies and CDC guidelines, we instruct employees to stay home if they feel unwell or are presenting symptoms of COVID-19
