Because I was black, I was retained and asked to complete various tasks on the ship including job task that I'm not authorized or qualified to carry out according to Great Lakes safety officer.īBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.īBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. Again to my initial above mentioned claim, I was ignored when I let them know that I in fact did come in contact with several of the Quarantined crew members. In addition to carefully following safety measures of all kind, on the day that I was accused I witnessed multiple of my fellow crew members being sent into quarantine before I was questioned about coming in close contact with them. I was falsely accused of exposing co workers to Covid-19 as I followed company rules. The site manager enforces Covid-19 safety measures while visitors are aboard the ship but does not regularly maintain those measures, wear a mask, nor get a temperature checks before each shift.

Not only was my life put in jeopardy but my children and immediately family as well.

The operation continued and several other employees were exposed.

After informing Captain Wade Eldridge(Dredge 53) and GLDD safety officer about being exposed, I was ignored. In a 2 week span over 10 employees was exposed to Covid-19 because of horrible management. Instead, after many employees tested positive for Covid-19 they continued operation. Didn't take the safety measures to ensure that crew members were not exposed to Covid-19.
