An unimpeachable source told Rappler that GMA did not shoulder the cost of the PCR testing of the COVID-19-positive employee. Insiders likewise told Rappler that service vans are provided for employees who need to report to the office but have no private vehicles.“There is a clamor among workers for the company to shoulder mandatory rapid testing for all newsroom staff, but so far they have been told that top management has allegedly yet to make an announcement,” TAG claimed.
