From this Thursday, health workers and certain other professions such as firemen will have an exclusive hour to do their shopping for one hour at Coles (from 7am to 8am) before the doors open to the rest of the public. This hour will be available every Tuesday and Thursday and the customers will have to wear their work unifors and present their work identifications in order to gain access to the supermarkets. 

This will not affect the exclusive hours offered to the elderly and other vulnerable groups, as they have the same benefit on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
