Response by Smithfield

[full response attached]

6 July

At the core of Smithfield’s COVID-19 response is an ongoing focus on employee health and safety, and continued adherence with the State Sanitary and Epidemiological Inspection (SANEPID) guidance. Here is a list of the aggressive measures we have taken to protect our employees in our Poland facilities: 

- Adopted a series of stringent and detailed processes, protocols and protective measures that follow, and in many cases exceed governmental requirements 

- Boosted personal protective equipment (PPE) to include masks and face shields

- Installed plexiglass and other physical barriers on our production floor and in break rooms... 

- Implemented mass thermal scanning systems...

- Increased social distancing...

- Adjusted the start and end time of shifts

- Added abundant hand sanitizing stations 

- Enhanced cleaning and disinfection 

- Explicitly instructing employees not to report to work and recommending they contact a health care center or SANEPID if they are sick or exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms

- Requiring sick employees to stay home and isolate 

- Offering all quarantined employees paid leave equating to 80% of an average of the last 12 months’ salary...

- Offering paid leave for all employees age 60 or above and/or disabled and/or at higher risk for serious complications from COVID-19...

- Providing an extra governmental nursery care benefit...
