Perrigo's Safety Protocols During COVID-19
The health and safety of Perrigo's consumers, customers, and employees is our top priority. We took precautionary measures to protect the wellbeing of our employees including asking employees to work from home, implemented a viral containment strategy, restricted access to production plants to key personnel only, and suspended all corporate travel. We have also developed business continuity plans to reduce supply chain and production disruptions as we continue to deliver products that consumers trust to treat their families around the globe.
