WASHINGTON, D.C. -- As U.S. employers rapidly adapt their workplaces to avoid further community spread of COVID-19, American workers offer a mixed assessment of how the disease will affect their place of work.
Half say COVID-19 will have a negative effect on their company or workplace -- either very (18%) or somewhat negative (32%) -- while 50% say it will not negatively affect their workplace.These findings are from a Gallup poll conducted March 2-13 as the U.S.
was beginning to grapple with the novel coronavirus pandemic. During this period, many American employers were exploring ways to keep employees and their communities safe while also maintaining their businesses.
