I am passing along for your consideration two news features that focus on our Local and safety in the workplace as we continue to grapple with the COVID-19 crisis. Last night, our member and JBS Union Steward, Safaa Elzakzoky, was featured on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show. I want to thank Safaa for her great work and for having the courage to share this story on national TV. Please CLICK HERE to see the interview, which starts at the 26.18 mark.
In addition, please take just a few minutes to read the article at the link below from The Wall Street Journal. it focuses heavily on our efforts to keep our members safe. I was pleased to provide a background on the situations at JBS, Cargill and Mission Foods. As I told The Journal when asked specifically about Mission Foods, our members “… may be essential employees, but they’re not sacrificial employees.” Your safety remains our top priority throughout this COVID-19 crisis.
