The City of Ekurhuleni (CoE) has responded to allegations made by some employees at the Springs Clinic that the facility was not closed for decontamination after a colleague tested positive for Covid-19.
It was reported in last week’s Advertiser, Employees raise concerns, that staff members at the clinic accused management of disregarding Covid-19 protocols.
The employees claim they spoke to management about their concerns but were told to keep coming to work until they received their test results.
