EASTERN SHORE, Md.- Governor Larry Hogan’s state of emergency has lifted and some groups say it’s at a time when all workers don’t have protections.
Groups advocating for food and farm workers said after more than a year of pressure simple precautions still have not been put in place.
People we spoke with said the issue of these workers not getting protections has been happening for years, but the pandemic has really shed a light on the disparities.
We’re told by one advocate that earlier this year when legislatures passed the Maryland essential workers protection act it required employers to provide commonsense COVID-19 protections for essential workers.
