So the Elgin call center closed for deep cleaning due to an employee testing positive for COVID-19. I was notified by text at midnight Saturday. When did the center know of this positive case and why weren’t employees notified sooner? There was no hand sanitizer made available near doors and no effort to prop doors open to avoid so many employees touching the same door handle. Could more have been done to mitigate this?

yes, you get paid when the center is closed. They may also move you to work from home if at all possible. They did in our location.
Not much different on the wireline side, too many people in a confined space, it's only a matter of time.
Yeah more could have been done. Every one of them could have been working from home. Now, none of them are working at all.
Do we get paid when your location is closed?
