"At adidas, the health and safety of our employees, consumers and partners is our No. 1 priority. In an effort to create a safe work environment in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and to help limit the spread of the coronavirus, we continue to act upon the applicable local authorities' directives across all adidas offices, retail and distribution center locations globally," the company shared in a statement. "This means that in some regions, adidas-owned stores are closing temporarily, depending on official regulations. We have a dedicated task force team in place and will continue to monitor the situation closely and take additional measures if necessary." adidas has also promised to pay retail employees for the hours they were scheduled to work during the closures.
