Letter to My 30,000 Followers: Blatant Evidence That COVID Unrest in the Workforce is Here, and Lawsuits are Soon to Follow—Employers Beware

Letter to My 30,000 Followers: Blatant Evidence That COVID Unrest in the Workforce is Here, and Lawsuits are Soon to Follow—Employers Beware

Per the thoughtful article I reference below, there is now blatant evidence that the wave of severe COVID labor unrest that I predicted many times many months ago and recently is here.?

The major upset is starting in healthcare because of the greater danger. But might your non-healthcare company be next?

With a high level of certainty, this severe unrest will become more and more visible and increasingly wreak havoc throughout America and many other countries like a swiftly moving and powerful tsunami. Employers beware.

My research on pending unrest shows it is also spreading rapidly into the legal arena. There is little data yet available on the details of actions because the parties settle most of them, and the settlement agreements contain non-disclosure provisions. But there are details on even these cases. Almost always, injured employees or family members have filed a complaint in court before settlement.?

This strong evidence of severe employee unrest comes to us in the form of significant individual and class action lawsuits. The destructive results of cases, which I also predicted, show turmoil here, too, is exploding.?

When my research on legal actions is complete, I will publish this added information. I believe this will be soon.?

This lawsuit wave, too, will knock companies over and onto their knees. As I have warned often, the threat is building or is already there for many companies. Putting one’s head in the sand will not stop this tsunami-sized wave. In the ocean, the most enormous wave recorded was 1,700 feet. In business, things might become much worse.

The best prevention, mitigation, and control strategy is: be proactive, fully prepared with a real solution already in hand, and that you are already thoughtfully executing.?

Especially front-line workers need protection from injuries and from certain politicians, who enticingly pay them more to stay at home than to go to work. And from certain lawyers who are pushing unrest, often unfounded unionization, and often baseless litigation. To establish this preventive wall, companies must wake up. And do the right thing. Now.?

Protect your employees. Vaccines are excellent. But they, alone, on average, supply only 50% protection. Plus, for your employees who for any reason oppose being vaccinated, you must give them a reasonable option, reasonably applied. The weekly, non-invasive testing proposed by the President is a good idea.

Many CEOs and Board Chairmen know this, but they are frozen at the switch. Likewise, many CHROs know this but have trouble getting enough funding to do things right.?

My goal is, through the efforts of the company I founded to help, Safely2Prosperity LLC, and has been, even before I founded the company, to provide a comprehensive solution for employers to use. With the help of my Teammates at S2P, we have created the best solution yet available in the world.

Our Team's goal is to first arm CEOs, Board Chairmen, and CHROs with data. And then visions, insights, ideas, plans, and comprehensive solutions, entire tailored-to-fit programs, that they can use to convince others—both at their own company and at the other companies where they have friends. The goal is to create a group Safety-Program-building wave of their own. This wave is beginning to rise.?

Only if employers protect their employees and their families properly and with passion soon will things work out ok.?

CEOs, Board Chairmen, and CHROS, please feel free to share my past and evolving thoughts with anyone you wish. From employee to leader to investor, every involved party must immediately do the right thing.?

Employees, support your employers. Employers, help your employees and their families.?

If employees are not aggressively and passionately protected, there will be no productivity. If employers are not aggressively and passionately protected, there will be no jobs. We are in this together.

Best,?

John
