With the stay at home statewide order, there seems to be quite a bit of confusion among employers as to what exactly is deemed an essential service, and which operations should cease. Specifically, I am an employee here at Wayfair in Lathrop, and there is some discord about whether or not warehousing/distribution of furniture and home decor is deemed an essential service and if we should ask our teams to continue to report to work or stay at home? Site leadership has cited the transportation clause in the Guide to Critical Infrastructure Workers as to why Wayfair would still be deemed an essential service, but this seems incomplete/inaccurate? I was hoping we could get some clarification on this issue. I understand, that with the COVID-19 outbreak, the city is probably extremely busy addressing these types of concerns, and I appreciate you looking into this issue. Thank you for your time.
