not provide workers with quarantine pay unless they test positive. With a shortage of tests, the policy means that many Walgreens employees with the coronavirus may have little choice but to keep working, putting colleagues and the people who they interact with at risk, employees said.
A staff member will also be paid if “our clinical team determines a team member is a high risk and states the team member should quarantine without a positive test,” said Sheehan, the Walgreens spokeswoman.
