may infect their fellow employees and possibly customers when they sneeze or cough."
Make sure store leaders are actively coaching all of
their workers.
Shoppers don't want to see employees in the deli or
meat department - or anywhere for that matter - handle their foods while coughing, sneezing or otherwise
acting sick.
It's also important to make sure all employees are
trained, regardless of their normal interaction with
fresh foods.
"Flu is not considered a foodborne illness, but if the
associates trained in proper food safety practices cannot

How the flu can impact your bottom line
If employee absenteeism is very high, it may be necessary to reduce
store hours to be able to properly staff the store. This would
reduce proﬁts
Training substitute or new employees can add costs
Trying to staff a store with limited employees may require paying the
employees that are available overtime
Increased employee illness can increase medical cost and any sick

merchandising some key items - think chicken noodle
soup, tissues, perhaps some items from the pharmacy
department - at the front of the store can be a win-win.
Not only does this make life easier for your ill shopper,
it lessens the chances that the shopper will spread their
germs throughout the store, especially into areas with
fresh foods and produce.
