During this pandemic period, our personnel undergoes temperature screening and stringent controls everyday.

In "our personnel undergoes", shouldn't "undergoes" be "undergo" instead ?

Thanks.

I would use "undergo," although that is not necessarily American usage. However, I am confident that in British usage, personnel is treated as a plural noun, and therefore the English would use "undergo."

Thanks, Setanta.

I would like to know if the last word in the paragraph should be spelt "every day" instead.
