Managing Potential Risks with Coronavirus (COVID-19) Across PFG

Performance Food Group continues to actively monitor the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation and modify our response as new information becomes available. We’ve implemented precautionary measures based on the best information available, best practices, and recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other government agencies.

Our corporate leadership team is regularly engaging with field leadership across the country to understand needs, concerns and questions from our associates, customers and other valued partners to help us make the best decisions for all our important stakeholders.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES
PFG continues to take precautionary actions to protect our workplace and our associates. This includes enhanced cleaning, disinfecting and sanitizing efforts and making these types of items more accessible to our associates onsite. We are continuing to reinforce the importance of following CDC guidance, especially wearing face masks/covers, frequent hand washing and social distancing.

  • PFG will not provide or ask for reports of positive COVID-19 illnesses. This is for the protection of our associates, as well as our business and yours, and in adherence to health insurance privacy laws and local health department contact trace policies.
  • PFG is strictly adhering to our illness reporting policies and associate work restriction policies.
  • We have implemented a daily body temperature screening process for all associates as well as essential visitors, at entry to all our offices and facilities.
  • If the initial body temperature screening is above the threshold, secondary body temperature screenings and health questionnaires are administered to determine exposure risk and work restriction requirements.
  • Associates exhibiting illness symptoms at this time are NOT allowed to work in our offices, warehouses or on the road.
  • PFG is requiring associates to follow social distancing guidelines during all work activities and is asking customers to establish and be respectful of similar ground rules.
  • To adhere to the latest guidance, PFG has implemented a face mask/cover and personal protective equipment program for all associates and will provide appropriate PPE, as needed.
  • Our experts are staying current with FDA-issued guidance on topics such as the transmissibility of coronavirus by food, or from food packaging surfaces, and we will adjust our actions as needed based on FDA guidance.
  • PFG is working with customers to determine limited- or no-contact delivery options that ensure all critical safety and business requirements will still be addressed.
  • PFG continues to work with our supply chain partners to source adequate inventory to serve our customers’ needs.
ADDRESSING NEEDS LOCALLY
Our operating companies are using their strong relationships and understanding of their local market, suppliers and customers to apply PFG’s enterprise-wide precautionary measures and implement the requirements in the best way to be effective and minimize impact for our associates and our customers. We appreciate your patience as we all navigate this dynamic situation.
 
Thank you for being a valued customer of PFG and our family of companies.
