Office Partners360,
a credible and leading provider of customer service and personalized
back-office solutions, recently conducted a COVID-19 vaccination survey to
determine and stop vaccine hesitancy at the workplace. At the same time, in
order to stay true and committed to its endeavor to keep its employees safe, it
also strengthened its safety and health program.
David
Highbloom speaks on the efforts to keep employees safe from the pandemic
Popular
business leader David Highbloom is the Chief Administrative
Officer of OfficePartners360, and he saysthat as per the results of the survey,
69% of the respondents to the survey were not keen to get the vaccine for
COVID-19. In order to address this, OP360 rolled out a Vaccination Information
Bulletin for COVID-19 to encourage vaccination and demystify concerns.
The
company has entered into a partnership with Project BalikBuhay and the Office
of The Presidential Assistant for the Visayas for registering employees for the
COVID-19 vaccine free of cost. Other private companies have also joined in this
public-private partnership that is unique to Cebu City in the Philippines.
The
response has been positive
Due
to these efforts, 640 employees from OP360 have registered for the vaccination
so far. This count is about 48 percent more than what was expected on the
initial vaccine survey. The Safety & Health Team will coordinate the
rollout of the vaccine.
The company
is still waiting for the final vaccination schedule as well as the assignment
for the site of the vaccination. Priority will be given to employees with comorbidities
that have registered on the site as per the National Vaccination Guidelines
that had been issued. There is a second round of registration that has been
scheduled to cater to extra staff.
OP360
prioritizes the health and the safety of its company’s employees
In
order to stay true to its deep commitment to protecting its company employees,
OP360 has intensified its safety and health program. It has launched a
corporate telecommuting package to further support its highly effective
Work-From-Home program. The company is subsidizing the Internet Plan every month
for its employees so that they can successfully work without hassles on the
wired Internet. OP360 also offers subsidized point-to-point shuttles for its
onsite workers.
Health
and Safety Themes for the month for company employees
With
the addition of more certified Safety and Health Officers, OP360 has developed
programs with a specific theme every month to address specific safety and
health hazards. For example, in March, the company created the Fire Safety
Month, where an information and training drive was conducted about fire safety,
the different types of fire hydrants, the methods for the suppression of fire,
and other safety tips.
David Highbloom says that in the meanwhile,
OP360 has administered an internal survey to see how different communities were
open to bike travel. It organized a bike safety campaign in April to emphasize
Road Safety. To celebrate motherhood, the company hailed May to be the Maternal
Health Month to raise awareness on prenatal and postpartum care, especially
during the COVID-19 pandemic.
