Break-ins and thefts affecting Oakland restaurant: 'We are fed up'
Locals in downtown Oakland are "surprised," "sad" and "disappointed" that Kaiser Permanente warned its employees to eat inside as crime continues to hurt business across Bay Area – but the same people who raised eyebrows at the warning admit crime is an issue.
Kaiser, headquartered in the California city, issued a memo to employees shared first by FOX KTVU, urging them to stay in their buildings for lunch after a string of robberies affected employees who ate at local businesses.
Kaiser, which is Oakland’s largest employer, said in a statement that the company "is committed to ensuring the safety and security of our employees and physicians across all of our locations. We continually monitor our environments for concerns, review our practices and strengthen them wherever possible."
