What steps are you taking to take care of your team members?

All salaried team members (AGMs/GMs/AMs) receive 10-15 days of PTO a year, plus an additional five days of health leave. We are continuously monitoring our policies to ensure we are providing the resources and flexibility our team members need at this time. We are actively working on a long-term paid sick leave policy for hourly team members. In addition, we have initiated a team member support hotline, as well as developed a team member resource guide which includes many resources like free virtual doctor visits, financial and emotional resources, and other tools to help our team members through COVID. The Noodles & Company Foundation was created to help improve the well-being of our team members by being there in times of sudden crisis, providing them and their family members educational opportunities and allowing us to give back to the communities we serve.
