- Preparing site leaders on actions to take for symptomatic as well as diagnosed associates, and training them on how to prevent COVID-19 spread at our manufacturing sites, DCs and offices.
Many of our facilities manufacture and supply products that support essential end markets like healthcare, food and beverage, transportation and national defense.In these areas of business critical continuity, we will remain open.
As we navigate the challenges of this global emergency, we appreciate the flexibility and trust of our associates, customers and supplier partners.On behalf of the entire ATG team, I want to express our gratitude for the healthcare workers and first responders who are on the front lines of battling this invisible enemy.
