"Let’s Do Our Part". COVID-19
“Our window to flatten the curve of the epidemic is narrow…. We all need to act now. COVID-19 is a serious public health threat.” Dr. Theresa Tam, Chief Public Health Officer of Canada
McCarthy Uniforms has been proactively monitoring the progression of COVID-19 and is implementing the next phase of our response plan “Let's Do Our Part." The goal of this phase is to implement a 'social distancing' plan. Social distancing measures are approaches taken to minimize close human contact with others in our community.
What exactly does this mean for MU customers, employees, suppliers and partners?
The great news is that customers can still access products & services, employees can still do their jobs and our suppliers will still get paid for goods. But the ‘way’ we all work together will change. McCarthy’s has invested in the tools and resources to support a virtual business model in cases of severe business disruption.
Starting today:
- Please call us at 416-593-6900 or 1-800-668-8261, or email us at customerservice@mccarthyuniforms.ca to receive a same day human response including advice on returns, exchanges, ordering new product or anything else on your mind.
- Shop online 24/7 at www.mccarthyuniforms.ca, Free Shipping on all orders. If you don’t already know, your school or workplace has a custom e-store where you can shop for all products!
- Stay confident in McCarthy Uniforms commitment to your community. Our back to school 2020 stock is already in place and we have sufficient resources in place to maintain both our philanthropic commitments to schools and our commitments to our team.
We are asking customers to appreciate our efforts to ‘do our part’ to slow the spread of COVID-19 and use these two alternate communication and shopping channels. Our physical retail store network, including in school shops, will be closed until further notice and FIT dates will be rescheduled.
During times like these, a company’s commitment to its core values are truly tested.
Our decisions this week, including a commitment to keep 100% of our team gainfully employed and put human safety first, have been based on our core principal to be a people-first, values-based business. Your trust and your business, which allow us to create the kind of company and culture that stands by humans, not just dollars & cents, is, as always, great appreciated.
