We Would Like to Recognize and Thank Our Essential Workers!
Essential workers have kept the city moving and our residents safe. They are healthcare workers, first responders, sanitation workers, grocery store workers, food workers, street cleaners, childcare providers, hardware store clerks, utility workers, truck drivers, postal and delivery workers, community outreach workers, Disaster Service Workers, and many, many others. They did not have the option to stay home, but made significant contributions to protect residents while assuming additional risks to their own health and safety to serve the people of San Francisco.
This week is an opportunity to acknowledge their work and educate the public that their actions, such as wearing a mask, social distancing, staying home when sick and washing hands, can help protect essential workers who have had to take on more risk throughout the pandemic.
