Another day on the job: Working over the holidays
In 2023, employment in retail increased by nearly 500,000 people from October to December.
Additionally, there is an increased demand for healthcare services during the holiday season. Vehicular accidents, fires and decorating injuries are all too common. That’s according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
If you’ve recently spent any time shopping, or at a doctor’s office, odds are you’ve met someone who will be working through the holiday season.
Today, we hear from retail and healthcare workers and learn about their experiences working during the holidays.
If you'll be working through this holiday season, we want to hear from you.
GUESTS:
- Lucy Sciarretto: Seafood Clerk at Stop & Shop in Southbury, CT
- Audrey Silver: Senior Clinical Operations Manager at Hartford Healthcare
- Ellen Benson: Associate Director of Procedural Services and Manager of the Sterile Processing Department UConn Health
