The Boston Bruins announced Saturday the creation of a fund for part-time gameday employees unable to work due to coronavirus concerns postponing the remainder of the NHL season.

“The Jacobs Family has established a $1.5 million fund for the Boston Bruins and TD Garden part-time gameday associates who will be financially burdened if the six remaining regular season Bruins games are not played,” the statement said.

“We thank our associates for their patience and understanding while we worked through the complexity of this unprecedented situation.”

Saturday’s statement came three days after the Herald highlighted the plight of several part-time employees, and two days after Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey spoke with the Herald and urged TD Garden and Bruins ownership to act on behalf of its workers.

The Bruins were the last of 31 NHL teams to release a statement on the matter.

The release did not, however, include a payment plan or timeline for when employees will be paid, saying only it is contingent on the final six games of the NHL regular season being officially canceled.

“A co-worker sent me a screenshot of the social media post of their statement,” one employee told the Herald on Saturday. “They haven’t contacted us at all.”

The Bruins confirmed that the workers had not been contacted directly. A team spokesperson told the Herald, “The TD Garden is communicating to the relevant union leadership, and individual associates will receive communication if Bruins games are officially cancelled.”

TD Garden workers are concerned with the timeline, because it might take weeks for the NHL to announce if those six remaining games will be canceled.

“I just am so embarrassed about this because I didn’t even find out from (food service employer Delaware North), I found out through a text group from work,” said another TD Garden employee. “Most of us work at TD Garden full time, which means every concert, every Celtics game, and every Bruins game, and it’s embarrassing that we might get paid for only six events if and only if they get canceled.”

Delaware North employees in other cities are also unsure of how or if they will be compensated. In Detroit, the Red Wings and Pistons pledged to pay their employees, but the language left out Delaware North food and beverage workers at Little Caesars Arena, where the teams play.

One employee at Little Caesars Arena said they were sent a note on Friday about how to apply for unemployment.

The Buffalo Sabres had previously released a similar statement, indicating they would pay employees upon cancellation of the season. On Friday, the Sabres’ parent company laid off all arena staff.

TD Garden workers continued to express similar fear of being laid off.

“I guess we will continue to wait with our pennies for unemployment,” one Garden employee said.
