Parkchester -- Enforcing Social-distancing ls a Good Thing. So What To Do If It Isn't Practiced Where You Work?

Are businesses doing everything possible when it comes to practicing social-distancing. I don't think so.This is based on my own current situation. 

The business I work for is a packer of pharmaceuticals. I think most would agree such a business may be needed even moreso now during the coronavirus pandemic. And in that case one might think keeping workers in that kind of environment safe as possible from contacing the coronavirus would be a top priority. Is protecting employess at medical facilities where the risk is higher more of a prioroty? Perhaps so. But still blatant disregard for protecting workers in less high risk areas is neglectful and wrong.

My current employer seems to disregard the fact that so many workers are constantly in close contact while working the various machines that prep the products it sells (i.e.  hand sanitizer, mouthwash, etc) for shipment.

For example, two workers may be stationed about two feet apart, across from each other, at a table at the end of a conveyor belt where product is sealed by hand before being boxed for shipping.

Or workers may be standing side by side, less than a feet apart, alongside a conveyor belt that moves product along.

Seems even too many of the supervisors in the place disregard social-distancing.

We are constantly being reminded to practice social-distancing (and I agree). But why is it, no matter what keywords I use on a google search, I can't find a single entry on what to do if caught up in a job where social-distancing isn't taken seriously.

I want to quit but not certain that's the best option. The bills still have to be paid.

I'm sure a lot of other people have this same problem on their jobs too.

In addition to the law cracking down on small businesses (i.e. nail salons, bars, retail stores, outdoor vendors, etc.) to make sure these owners are complying with social-distancing in the workplace, the same type enforcement needs to be applied to billion dollar businesses too. Especially businesses whose products/services may be more essential now in this time of crisis. 

Hope this is not a case of selective enforcement.
