In response to a recent slowdown of beef and pork production in Michigan, food industry leaders urged consumers not to panic buy as adjustments are made in response to the coronavirus pandemic at processing plants across the state.
"A safe workplace and a healthy workforce are the keys to bringing us back to full production," said Jennifer Holton, the director of communications for Michigan's Department of Agriculture and Rural Development."Ensuring workers have PPE and a safe work environment is priority."The safety precautions were put in place to help protect the workers and get an ample stock of beef and pork in grocery stores again.
"We are focused on prevention protocols to keep the food supply moving and ensure the health and welfare of employees and animals," according to the meat industry's statement."We applaud the extraordinary steps the industry is taking to ensure worker safety, including COVID-19 testing, temperature checks, use of personal protective equipment and social distancing of employees.
The meat producers' announcement also comes after President Trump signed an executive order to keep meat processing plants open.
