Walmart establishes an emergency coronavirus leave policy after an employee in Kentucky tests positive for the virus

Walmart has established an emergency leave policy in response to the coronavirus epidemic.

"In order to be paid for this time, you may use your regular paid time off options," the email read. "If your store, club, office or distribution center is part of a mandated quarantine or if you're required to quarantine by a government agency or by Walmart, you will receive up to two weeks of pay, and absences during the time you are out will not count against attendance.

The sick employee is currently being treated for the virus and is showing signs of "improving," according to the email. As you know from previous notes, we are responding to the developing situation and planning for what may occur in the coming weeks and months. We wanted to share an update that a Walmart associate at our store in Cynthiana, Kentucky, has tested positive for COVID-19. The associate is receiving medical care, and her condition is improving. We wish her a speedy recovery.

During this uncertain time, if you determine you are unable to work or are uncomfortable at work, you can choose to stay home. To ensure you feel supported making this choice, we will waive our attendance occurrence policy through the end of April, but please call in as usual to let us know. In order to be paid for this time, you may use your regular paid time off options.
