A Kelowna Real Canadian Superstore employee has tested positive for COVID-19.
Superstore’s parent-company Loblaw’s posted the notice on its website on Saturday, Nov. 28, stating a worker at the 2280 Baron Road location had tested positive on a presumptive test for COVID-19.
The last day the employee worked was Nov. 23, according to the notice.
This is the store’s second employee to test positive for the virus within the last month.
Several stores across the Lower Mainland are also listed as having recent cases of the virus.
“We’re working diligently to provide essential goods and services to Canadians while taking necessary steps to ensure the safety of our customers and our colleagues,” reads Loblaw’s COVID-19 webpage.
“Given the important role we play in our communities, we are prepared for all possible situations, including a positive test for COVID-19 in our stores. In these cases, we work closely with public health and follow their guidance to ensure proper notification of close contacts and required cleaning and sanitization in our stores.”
