Diners falling ill at the
Diners falling ill at the Olive Garden restaurant is a very sad and dangerous incident. I have worked in a restaurant and am wondering if the government should make it mandatory that people who have flu-like symptoms and work in especially the food and restaurant industry should not report to work. Imagine if the shef has a light flu, but comes to work, or if your waitress has a flu-like symptom. Dose anyone know if there is such a policy forbidding to come to work if you have such illness and work in restaurant?
