Yesterday, I was made aware of a partner that tested positive, but got the results *while* they were at work, s as they came in due to being asymptomatic. Several people worked with her that day, she was on bar, etc.

I’m considering taking action against my SM, as they advised another partner to “calm down about all this Covid stuff”, and didn’t communicate this positive test to everyone in the store. This is not the first time they have downplayed the seriousness of Covid, nor is it the first instance of concerning behavior out of our SM. Previously, the shift supervisor team was told in a group text not to ‘go into a panic’ when one of us had spent several hours in close contact with someone that had tested positive the next day. In the meantime, we were in the midst of discussing what our next steps should be, who has worked with them/should potential get tested, etc. This coupled with the fact that the SM was a hold out on getting vaccinated for politically motivated/“I’m not getting the vaccine because my church told us that it’s made with dead babies” reasons, compounds our concerns for the health and well-being of not just the partners, but the partners’(including mine) families, and that of the customers.

Please advise on what the corporate procedure is for positive partners, and how Covid is supposed to be handled in general, as I think that under this SM, we may be in the dark where this is concerned.

Any advice is appreciated.
