Others said Covid rules have repeatedly been broken during the third lockdown – with staff skipping temperature checks and others not following the two-metre social distancing rule. People hug and there is no sort of discipline by the managers for these people that are just breaching the rules. However, behind order stations, staff claim temperatures are now often not checked, social distancing screens aren't always used and that they can't wash their hands every 30 minutes. The McStrike workers' campaign group claims workers reported problems in eight different parts of the country in January alone.
