"Dig — the fast-casual lunch chain formerly known as Dig Inn — shut down its Williamsburg outpost on Thursday after a staffer reported having flu-like symptoms after coming in contact with an individual who tested positive for COVID-19. The chain closed the Williamsburg location at 1 p.m. on Thursday, shortly after finding out that the employee had called in sick and about the employee’s potential exposure, a spokesperson for the chain tells Eater. Dig then called all the customers that had existing orders at the time, and canceled and refunded their orders, the spokesperson says. An email from Dig Food Group CEO Adam Eskin went out at 2:30 p.m. that afternoon and was sent to all customers who had recently visited the Williamsburg outpost. In the email, Eskin writes that a third-party service cleaned and sanitized the restaurant on Thursday, and a completely new restaurant team is working at the Williamsburg location as of this morning. All the workers who were previously at the Williamsburg location have been placed on mandatory paid quarantine, Eskin writes, but it’s not yet clear how long these employees are expected to stay isolated. The Williamsburg location resumed normal business hours as of Friday morning. Eskin also pointed to a series of health and safety protocols Dig locations have taken since the state-mandated shutdown in March including hourly sanitization of all surfaces, and glove-changing for staffers every half hour." - Tanay Warerkar
