Amazon to check employee temps and provide face masks
In response to criticism regarding the spread of coronavirus in warehouses, Amazon will start testing employees for fevers and supplying face masks next week. The firm has announced that face masks will be available for employees at all U.S. and European warehouses and Whole Foods locations. Additionally, prior to entering warehouses, employees will have their temperatures checked via forehead thermometers. Employees deemed feverish will be asked to return home.
