This early, Megaworld has vaccinated 95 percent of it office-based employees currently assigned in the company’s various offices such as Eastwood City, Uptown Bonifacio and McKinley Hill.
If there’s a will, there’s a way. As the private sector gained access to COVID-19 vaccines to help in the government’s goal to achieve herd immunity among Filipinos, this company leads the way in its fast, systematic and bold program to vaccinate its employees and their direct dependents.
Following the company’s rollout of its free vaccination program for employees and stakeholders last week, Megaworld reports that it has completed the vaccination of 95 percent of it office-based employees currently assigned in the company’s various offices such as Eastwood City, Uptown Bonifacio and McKinley Hill.
Aside from its office-based employees, the company is also expediting the inoculation of its frontliners totaling to around 2,500, particularly mall personnel such as security guards, housekeeping, concierge and parking staff, and residential sales agents who are deployed in various sales offices around the country.
“During the past week, we put our eyes on achieving herd immunity among our office-based employees. We also look forward to achieving the same for our sales groups and frontliners in our various malls and hotels, especially in Metro Manila,” says Rafael Antonio Perez, vice president for human resources and corporate administration, Megaworld.
Megaworld piloted its employees’ vaccination program in Arcovia City in Pasig. This week, another site will be opened in Uptown Mall as the company sets to roll out the vaccination of its employees’ dependents who have been pre-registered in March.
Megaworld’s vaccination is part of the conglomerate-wide AGIMMUNITY program, the free vaccination program of the Andrew Tan-led Alliance Global Group (AGI) for its employees and other stakeholders.
The conglomerate has ordered more than 100,000 doses of Sinovac, Moderna and AstraZeneca vaccines.
These vaccines are distributed to Megaworld Group, which also includes subsidiaries Global-Estate Resorts, Inc. (GERI), Empire East and Suntrust Properties; as well as Emperador, Inc., Travellers International Hotel Group, Inc. and Infracorp.
