Salm Partners has received results for the free, voluntary COVID-19 testing provide to all employees. Over a period of several days employees were tested at two Denmark facilities. Testing was arranged and procured by Salm Partners and executed with support from Brown County Health.

This note is to update you on:

Today, all partners of Salm Partners will have the option for voluntary, free COVID-19 testing at the company’s Denmark location.  Salm Partners is not being required to provide testing; it is a proactive measure to ensure the safety and good health of all partners.

Salm Partners will be offering voluntary COVID-19 testing to all partners free of charge Friday April 24th.  Hourly partners will receive an extra hour of straight time pay as a thank you for taking the test.

Salm Partners has issued a press release regarding partners who have contracted COVID-19 and we are working to provide voluntary testing to all partners

Masks will be provided at the beginning of each shift, please proactively increase social distancing in the plant, and stay home if you are sick.

• Face covers are required for all partners
• All partners will enter through the 590 partner entrance.

The COVID-19 Return to Work Self-Assessment form has been created to help you figure out when you can return after experiencing COIVD-19 symptoms.

On-site physical training will be temporarily suspended.  We are looking to set up access to the clinic and virtual appointments during the suspension.

The "Safer at Home" order is effective tomorrow but you can still travel to/from work.  Partner sales will be temporarily suspended.

Steps that are being taken to strengthen our resilience to COVID-19 and carried over paid time off (PTO) won't expire until Dec 31, 2020
