COVID-19 UPDATES AND ACTIONS WE’RE TAKING
As we all adjust to new ways of doing things as we work together to help reduce the spread of COVID-19, we want to keep you informed of actions we’re taking here at Lunds & Byerlys.
These unprecedented times have called for equally unprecedented measures so we can continue providing you with food and other essential products in the safest environment possible. As we follow guidance from local and national health authorities, I assure you every decision we make is done to ensure the safety of our staff and customers. And we will continue to take any and all steps necessary to do just that.

PROTOCOL IF EMPLOYEE TESTS POSITIVE
The personal health information of our employees is private. And while we don’t publicly share that information, the safety of our staff and customers is top of mind in every decision we make.
We have a detailed list of protocols that will immediately go into place if any member of our staff tests positive for COVID-19.
Under the guidance of local and national health authorities, every situation is thoroughly investigated. This includes ensuring the staff member has the support they need for their health and well-being. We will also identify that individual’s known points of contact in the store and notify the entire store staff of the situation. If appropriate, we will also conduct an additional layer of deep cleaning that is above and beyond our already frequent and stringent cleaning protocols.
As we have always done, we will immediately notify our customers if it is ever determined there is a risk to the general public.
