Our customers support us every day, taking time to recognize our people and encouraging us to keep going, which truly makes a HUGE difference.

Disability Paid Sick Leave

We created a COVID-19 disability paid sick leave to provide 100% of pay to eligible employees while on leave.

Company nurses and a virtual support staff are in touch with every employee out on leave.

Job-protected Voluntary Leave

Offering every employee the flexibility to take time away from work during this time.

Handwashing

Handwashing

We’ve added additional employee sinks in our stores to ensure more frequent handwashing.

Cleaner

Deep Cleaning

We added hand-sanitizer stations and implemented deep cleaning procedures in our stores, distribution centers, and offices. This includes enhanced sanitation of high-contact touchpoints and increased frequency of everyday sanitation practices throughout the day and overnight. Cashiers are asked to sanitize their workspace and hands in between each customer.

Register Shield

Plexiglas® Shields

Plexiglas® shields have been installed at all of our pharmacies and front-end registers and will be installed in additional areas.
Facemask

Slowing the Spread

We are providing masks for all employees to wear during their shifts. All customers are also required to wear a cloth mask that covers their nose and mouth when entering the store.

Social Distancing

We encourage social distancing by placing visual indicators at all of our front-end registers, pharmacies and throughout the store. We are operating our stores at 15-20% of their maximum occupancy and have practices in place to ensure we are staying within those limits.

Wellness

Wellness Checks

We’ve always asked our employees to stay home when they don’t feel well. As an added measure, we’ll be implementing pre-shift wellness checks for all employees. As always, we offer free EAP Resources.

A Big Thank You From
our First Responders

“Seeing the first responders show their support for us was both overwhelming and humbling. I am very proud to serve our community, especially during this time. I teared up as they drove by, reminding myself that we will all get through this together.”
