It's not easy to get a mask, but couriers who meet many people every day need to have quarantine items. But even some of the industry's largest courier operators aren't getting enough masks.

CJ Logistics Logistics Center in Gyeonggi-do.

Courier knights without masks stand out everywhere.

[Many people still don't wear masks.]

I asked the company to supply a mask and protested it, but it didn't work.

[A / CJ Korea Express Courier Article: We do not take care of that. It is yours, buy it and use it.]

It's hard to work for yourself because it's hard to work.

[B / CJ Logistics Courier: I have one left now. I'm chased by time every day, I can't live in a mask line… .]

Customers receiving shipments are also anxious

[Courier: It's scary because you don't come wearing a mask. I was nervous.]

In some cases, worse clients may bring a mask.

[B / CJ Korea Express Courier Service article: I didn't run out of masks, so please take care of it. If you're confirmed, the whole area is paralyzed. .] More than 20,000 couriers work for the company.

The company's position is that it is not only the company's responsibility because it lacks the quantity of masks and supplies it to urgent places such as Daegu, Gyeongbuk and airports.

[CJ Logistics Official: You have to buy some personally or you have to do this. You shouldn't just talk about it at work.]

There is criticism that the responsibility is being passed on to individual courier workers when the government classifies couriers as occupational groups with high risk of infection and transmission and recommends wearing masks.
