Heyyoubehindthebushes:

Throughout covid I’ve worked for 2 big MNC. Both have taken ot extremely serious from the start. In the first place when this hit peopel were told to wfh were possible. The number of people onside was limited and we had to change work practices to ensure social distancimg, that effected production numbers but was the right time to do. At the time I left there was 5 conformed cases within the site, lut of 1600 people all in march, I don’t believe there has been any since. 2 were in a particular area, 1 in my area lived with one of those 2 (I was close contact) and another in my area who caught off a family member, I’ve no idea of the other. HSA inspected in April and were delighted with the levels of measures and had no further recommendations.
I started in the 2nd plant in May, wfh for most and might be onsite 2 days a week. Much the same, work practices changed to ensure social distancing, limit number of people per area, temperature checks at door and masks. We are working on an expansion which requires us to bring in contractors from England and Germany, in order to bring them in we have to segregate the area to ensure no one enters where they will work, bring them in to reception to fill out all paperwork take temperature bring around backnand through special door to go to work area, they cannot use our toilets we hire portable toilets specific to each contactor, they cannot use the canteen, only 2 people from the company can interact and we must wear ffp2 masks. In order to bring them into ireland we need IBEC clearance. HSA inspected in June and again were all happy with our measures. Not 1 case linked to the plant out of 400 people.
Both MNC took it seriously and protected workers and rook a hit on production, I really can’t understand how 1 whole industry gets away with this level of non compliance. MNC get a bad rap often for not paying tax, but at least they aren’t allowing their workers get infected with a deadly disease in order to keep the bottom line

Parkinsons?

Fucking pathetic.

There’s going to be a revolution, I swear to god. We just have to hope the good guys come on top and we get nice communists and anarchists and not nasty fascists. Early signals are promising.

By the way, I was thinking today of the special regulations they brought in for the construction industry, only so many of a site and social distancing on sites and so on. The government haven’t just shown contempt for the hospitality industry, they’ve shown contempt for every other industry in the country by letting Larry Goodman away with this. Like - what the actual fuck. Do those cunts realise that if there was GE right now they’d probably get about 10 seats each?

By the way, SF to win the most seats in the next GE, evens on PP. Free money surely.

Heyyoubehindthebushes · August 9, 2020, 8:35am

Roam freely through God’s county @myboyblue

Ah good. So we’ve Gardai manning checkpoints but they can’t do anything about people breaking regulations

myboyblue · August 9, 2020, 8:52am

I have no desire to torment a Garda going about his duty.

We go again.

Heyyoubehindthebushes · August 9, 2020, 8:56am

Checkpoints may find dogs. Silver linings

Loko_Cove · August 9, 2020, 8:57am

Don’t think many checkpoints have been put in place

Batigol · August 9, 2020, 8:58am

Julio_Geordio · August 9, 2020, 9:01am

Drive up, take a photo, fuck off

myboyblue · August 9, 2020, 9:01am
