Vaccinations at workplaces in Poland will start soon
Almost 700 entrepreneurs have already joined the employee vaccination program, government representatives announced on 6 May.
Among entrepreneurs interested in vaccinating employees are popular retail chains. The companies employ about 600 thousand employees and among them are companies active in the food industry. Readiness for vaccinations is declared, among others, by Biedronka, Auchan, Carrefour and Maspex.
- We definitely support the employee vaccination program. We recently conducted an internal survey in which we asked our employees if they would like to get vaccinated under such a program. Most of the responses were positive - confirms director Tomasz Dejtrowski from the Biedronka network.
In the Auchan network, about 3,000 people declared their willingness to be vaccinated. The company employs about 19 thousand people. Carrefour has not yet announced how many workers will be vaccinated. As we read on the website of the company, the chain only analyzes the needs of employees and its possible involvement in the vaccination program.
The Maspex Group, on the other hand, is one step further. The company ordered 2.5 thousands vaccines for their employees. The company confirms that half of the employees are willing to get vaccinated, not including those who have already been vaccinated or contracted Covid-19 and still have to wait for vaccination. Maspex estimates it will have close to 70% of employees vaccinated. Additionally, the Maspex Group has prepared a one-off payment of PLN 500 for its employees. Condition? You have to be vaccinated.
