"Old Navy to pay store employees to work election polls in November" With Power to the Polls Chester County PA

"The retailer announced on Tuesday that it will pay store employees for eight hours who serve as poll workers for the 2020 election. The company said employees 'will also be eligible for compensation from their local jurisdiction.'

Old Navy, which is owned by Gap (GPS) and has 50,000 field employees across more than 1,000 stores, is partnering with the Civic Alliance and Power the Polls to recruit 250,000 new poll workers to 'ensure polling sites stay open and operate efficiently across the country.' 

This comes after several states face poll worker shortages due to the pandemic. 

'Every voice in this country matters and

 deserves to be heard at the polls, and if we at Old Navy can be lls even a small part of making that process more accessible to the communities we call home, we are on board,' said Nancy Green, head of Old Navy."
