📋 Tender Overview
In order to further contain the spread of the coronavirus and to maintain public transport OBB is taking extensive measures to protect its almost 42000 employees and their relatives and to motivate them to vaccinate. It is also important for Austria that OBB employees are well protected against the coronavirus. This means that rail and bus connections as well as freight traffic can largely be maintained. The basic services of the country as well as the mobility of many people who do their indispensable work for all of us in hospitals schools kindergartens supermarkets in the police force and in many other important areas depend on this. The OBB are a reliable partner here and keep the country running.In cooperation with the City of Vienna a particularly low-threshold vaccination option for employees and their families was created at the Austria Center Vienna so that OBB can continue to show solidarity and be available even in times of crisis. For two weeks from today November 29th to December 12th. OBB employees and their relatives can get their first second or third stitch at any time without making an appointment quickly and with a free choice of vaccine.BB CEO Andreas Matth emphasizes how important a good vaccination offer is We railway workers show - especially in times of crisis - that we always show solidarity and stick together. The vaccination is an expression of this solidarity - because the more colleagues are vaccinated the better the BB team is and our passengers are protected. I am pleased that in addition to the nationwide vaccination offer there is now also the cooperation with the Impfstrae in the Austria Center. This is a great opportunity to give the colleagues from the Team BB additional low-threshold access to the vaccination.We are pleased that the BB is motivating its employees to vaccinate against Covid-19 and of course we want to support them. The vaccination lanes in the Austria Center are well prepared for company vaccinations. With the special vaccination routes for the BB employees a quick process is also made possible. During these two weeks of vaccination for the railway workers and their relatives it is guaranteed that the vaccination - regardless of whether it is the first second or third stab - will be carried out without any problems. The BB are the most important infrastructure company in our country Vaccinated employees are protected employees and they also contribute to the protection of their customers and passengers emphasizes Viennas City Councilor for Health Peter Hacker.Vaccination is our way out of the crisis - because it protects us just as much as others. This is exactly why this vaccination offer is important and good. During the crisis Deutsche Bahn employees made sure that we can all travel safely. And they continue to do so with their vaccination. I would like to thank you for this today said Climate Protection Minister Leonore Gewessler.
