Should store employees wear gloves at all times? <br /> o Dove-That seems like a reasonable idea to have employees wear gloves at all <br /> times. <br /> o Delios-Asked if places can even get gloves? Saying it would be hard for some <br /> to comply to if forced and they may not even be able to because of supplies. <br /> o Sexton- Had made several calls to stores looking for gloves and no one had <br /> any bulk packages left. He wondered how stores would be able to get some. <br /> o Delios- read language from the Governor's office about how stores need to <br /> provide wipes and sanitizer at the entrances for people to use,whenever it's <br /> available. <br /> c Shonkoff-Asked what pizza places/take-out restaurants are doing to keep <br /> the public safe with handling food and passing containers? <br /> o Sexton- said since Daniel (inspector) is going out next week, could he find out <br /> what establishments are doing? <br /> o Vlasuk- Talked about how some places are doing nothing to protect <br /> themselves or customers. Noting there is no tape marking off 6 foot distances <br /> and no sanitizer for employees. <br /> o Delios-Town Staff in the field are using masks, gloves and sanitizer when <br /> going out.The masks were donated to the Town by Home Depot. <br /> o Sexton- offered what a motion might look like, motion to instruct our <br /> inspectors to make stores adhere to the CDC 6-foot minimum distance with <br /> employees and customers and to have employees have a personal sanitizer <br /> on them and use it throughout the day. <br /> Page I 1 <br />
