Not everyone is able to work remotely, especially in the mining industry, says Patrycjusz Polak, manager of the Occupational Health and Safety Team at JSW SA. It is him, together with his daughter Lilianna, came up with the #stayathomeafterwork hashtag. We were playing together and we reached a conclusion that it would be worth the while to make such a hashtag for us, for Jastrzębska Spółka Węglowa, Polak adds.
This is because mines cannot shut down, among other things due to mining and geological conditions. After decisions made by the Crisis Management Team, numerous restrictions were introduced at JSW SA forbidding entry of outsiders to the company’s premises, temperature measurements for employees starting their shift, a three-shift work system and disinfection of key areas in individual units. Nevertheless, this is not sufficient. Safety relies mainly on employees, so I am imploring you to take care of yourselves, because this is the only way to safe the jobs and health of all of us. Responsible conduct after hours protects us against infection at work, says Artur Dyczko, Vice-President of the JSW Management Board for Technical and Operational Matters, who is heading the Crisis Management Team.
The #stayathomeafterwork hashtag has been promoted for several days now through JSW SA’s social channels.
