ATTENTION ALL TWU LOCAL 512 MEMBERS:
Brothers and Sisters,
Yesterday evening, we were notified that another member tested positive for the COVID-19 Virus. Our member worked down in the bagroom and is at home, and we hope he will recover fully. The area that he worked has been identified and has undergone a deep cleaning, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Due to federal regulation, we cannot disclose the name of our members who tested but rest a sure they are home recovering.
Due to changes with the recommendation of the CDC, the Company will be supplying facemask to frontline members. They are looking to get them next week, and Please look out for communication when they arrive. The Local is also waiting for a shipment of protective gear to arrive as well.
You are permitted to bring your own mask or utilize scarves or bandanas that can act as a face covering. The first rule is to be careful not to touch your eyes, nose, and mouth when removing your face covering, and always wash your hands immediately after removing. There is no requirement for wearing a facemask, it is a personal decision, but it is good to know it will be provided if you need it.
Once again, if you're feeling ill, please stay home.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Juan Elvira
President – TWU Local 512
