Myer Couldn’t Skirt an COVID-19
Large corporation cannot circumvent coronavirus due to social distancing regulation for hygiene purpose.
Myer is closing for 4 weeks of time starting from 29th of March 2020.
10,000 team members of Myer from Monday will not be paid and will not be working. However, luckily, full and part time staff has advantage than others because their flexibility is greater since they can access annual leave and long service entitlements in addition to government assistance measures.
Myer has to have difficult decision to protect their staff members from working in the environment of getting threats by COVID-19. They are considering of offering members a temporarily service of ‘free counselling’ and online-only business to help members to maintain their family and their well-being.
