That's what made me a Chapman's Ice Cream fan (in Canada) because of how they treated their workers during the pandemic. They gave a 2 dollar raise during the pandemic, making it permanent where so many other companies hoped it would be temporary, then a year later gave a $1 raise to fully vaccinated people, then six months later matched that for everyone else. That's how, as management you show your workers how valuable they are.
