Your General Committee officers have been in frequent contact with NJT management and Medical department, with concerns of the coronaivirus outbreak and have been asking for hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes for employees and passengers, thorough cleaning of touch points on trains and work areas, and relaxed absenteeism enforcement, all CDC recommendations for employers. They have promised some and we will continue to ask for all of the above. There is a meeting scheduled with all unions the first week of March, any and all updates will be shared with members.
We ask that you share your concerns with officers, follow posts here from the medical department, and follow recommendations provided by the CDC
