During the current coronavirus crisis, with many of us home-bound to do our part to slow the spread of the virus, grocery stores have become one of our key life lines to the outside world.

But the workers in these supermarkets are at the front lines of the pandemic, risking exposure and possible illness in order to serve us.

Many go to work every day because they need a paycheck and cannot afford to miss work. Seventy percent of retail cashiers are women - many of whom provide the bulk of unpaid care work at home as well. They stock the shelves and help us check out, yet too many do not have access to paid sick leave or proper equipment and training to protect themselves.

This isn't right. Take action with Oxfam now to tell supermarkets that they need to do more to protect these workers.
