Retail Stores Dedicate Hours to High Risk Shoppers
Written by Site Hub on June 2, 2020
Big name retail stores like WalMart, T.J. Maxx and Kohls are dedicating hours for shoppers who are most at risk for contracting the coronavirus.
Following in the footsteps of essential businesses like grocery stores, these chains will be opening earlier for groups of people that might not feel comfortable shopping during regular hours, when the stores see the most business and places get crowded.
In addition to dedicated hours for seniors to shop, retail businesses are also reducing their hours and implementing services like curbside pickup.
With curbside pickup you can wait in your vehicle and the staff with bring your items to you. This allows you to maintain social distancing and reduce the chances of possible COVID-19 transmission.
There is a hope that stores will continue this policy after the pandemic, as there will always be senior citizens and immunocompromised individuals.
