Business's Procedures
What Are They Doing?
Most non-life-sustaining businesses are closed down for the time being, to protect their employees and customers. Fast-food chains and other restaurants have opened drive-thrus, delivery services, and curb-side pick up services. Grocery stores are currently taking precautionary measures to help prevent the spread while making sure customers are able to shop for their groceries.
​
For example, Weis Markets. Currently at Weis Markets, all customers and employees must where masks. They have placed markings on the floor at registers to influence the 6-feet social distancing policy. Cleaning with peroxide cleaner must take place after every transaction and the entire store must be cleaned after closing. Plexi-glass shields have been installed at every register, in the pharmacy department, customer service, and beer department. Face shields have been given to employees. A new system for managing customer traffic has been implemented to allow one customer per register, while others wait in line. Cashiers cannot run on a register next to another cashier. Hand-washing takes place every hour. Employees are limiting the amount of people in the store, as well.
