According to the information received from ESKOM
Eskom has a COVID-19 Vaccine strategy and roll-out plan that is aligned to the national vaccine strategy. As part of phase 1, Eskom frontline health care workers have registered on the Electronic Vaccine Data System (EVDS) and await to be vaccinated.
Attached is the Eskom COVID-19 vaccine strategy and roll-out plan. It outlines the process to vaccinate employees and contract workers.
According to the information received from SAFCOL
SAFCOL has 3 517 employees (including permanent employees, fixed term employees and contractors) as at February 2021. SAFCOL employees are not frontline workers and are therefore not affected in phase one of the national vaccine rollout process.
Subject to resolution of challenges, relating to financing of vaccines and medical skills constraints at the two clinics owned by SAFCOL, SAFCOL’s vaccine rollout plan is cognisant of the fact that Government will source, distribute and oversee the rollout of the vaccine. Furthermore, that Government, as the sole purchaser of vaccines, will distribute it to provincial governments and the private sector. Consequently, SAFCOL’s roll-out plan will be aligned to the Government roll-out plan as and when the relevant phases are announced. SAFCOL will implement the vaccination programme following a phased approach as detailed in the roll-out plan below.
Phase 1 - Rollout for SAFCOL. (Phase one for SAFCOL will be implemented when the Government implement its phase two. SAFCOL will include the following employees) |
Phase 2 - Rollout for SAFCOL (Phase two for SAFCOL. For SAFCOL will be implemented when the Government implement its phase three. SAFCOL will include the following employees) |
Every employee over 60 years and those over 18 years with co-morbidities. |
Every employee older than 18 years, who were not covered during Phase 1, targeting the entire workforce. |
Production workers and employees who cannot work from home. |
