Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Congregated Settings: Meat Plants

Ms Edel McGinley:

This goes back to my earlier point. It is fine to have things available and posted, but training and information on their meaning is important. We can have information, but we must be trained on what that means for workplaces. That then has to be monitored and fed back and workers must also be part of the decision-making. That has been a big gap because workers are not part of the decision-making in how Covid is addressed. Their voices are not being heard within plants and they are not consulted. That is deficient.
