In labor activism, there's an old strategy called work to rule, where they follow every rule to the letter. Workers should do exactly this when they're forced to work, according to the CDC's current reccomendations.
1) Always maintain at least six feet distance between themselves and other people. Be very strict about this.
2) Go to the restroom to vigorously wash their hands for 20 seconds every half an hour.
3) Use employer-supplied hand sanitizer before and after every time their hand comes into contact with a physical surface.
4) Use employer-supplied masks at all times. If they aren't supplying them, leave.
5) Anytime a customer touches a door or surface, immediately disinfect it.
6) Take your temperature every half hour. If it is every elevated to 100F or above, report it and leave.

The actual legal protections this offers would be less than real work to rule, but at least if you get fired "for cause," the employer is bound to get a ton of blowback.
