Foster’s
reassures that unsubstantiated rumors are false

Recently, a rumor has circulated that team members at Foster’s have tested positive for COVID-19 and are still working. This rumor is unsubstantiated and completely false.

We
take the health and safety of our team and community extremely
seriously and would not knowingly put anyone at risk. To help ensure
this, we’ve put the following policies in place.


  • Any team members who
    returned from leave overseas were asked to immediately
    self-quarantine for a period of two weeks before starting back at
    work.


  • Any team member living
    with someone who was quarantined, was also asked to self-quarantine
    for two weeks.


  • Any team member who does
    not feel well, is asked to stay home from work, and if they are
    presenting with flu-like symptoms, to call the HSA flu hotline or
    use the online self-assessment tool immediately.


  • Elderly and
    immuno-compromised team members have been given the option to stay
    home during this time should they wish.


  • All team members are
    required to wash their hands and sanitize their workstations
    frequently throughout the day.

On
top of the measures put in place at our stores to keep customers and
team members safe, healthy and socially distanced, plexiglass
protective shields for each of our registers and customer service
counters and protective face shields for our front end team have been
ordered.

In
these difficult times, we discourage the spread of rumors and fake
news as they create unnecessary panic and stress within the
community. Should rumors surface, and you feel unsure or have
questions, we ask that you reach out to us directly at
info@fosters.ky.

Thank
you for your support during this dynamic period.
