I have been a Union employee for Blue Care Network for almost 8 years. The leadership of BCN/BCBSM, Including our CEO Dan Loepp, has decided that Union Employees are essential workers and need to continue working during the COVID-19 quarantine, even though at least 5 employees tested positive for COVID-19. There are likely more positive cases since I have not been updated since last week. While the company has taken some precautions to make the work environment safer, the safest option is to work from home.

I love my job and am very grateful to have it, but I and many of my coworkers would feel safer working from home. All Non-Union employees are mandated to work from home during the quarantine. There is no legitimate reason that BCN/BCBS could not set up Union employees to work from home, like Non Union employees and other insurance companies have done.

Please share this post. It is unnecessary for me and my Union colleagues to leave the house to go into work, when our jobs can be done remotely. We need to stand together as one Union and voice our opinions.
