Protecting Our Employees
ZOLL maintains high safety standards at all office and manufacturing facilities and has implemented comprehensive protocols to protect our employees as we ramp up production of ventilators to aid the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic. These measures include, but are not limited to:
- Reconfiguring manufacturing layout to enhance social distancing of work stations;
- Implementing work-from-home procedures for non-essential plant personnel and restricting plant access;
- Staggering start, end, and break times for all shifts;
- Distributing and requiring the use of masks for all employees and building visitors;
- Providing extra sanitiser stations and related safety training;
- Increasing cleaning procedures in all plant areas, with additional concentration on high touch areas and work stations;
- Implementing traffic flow enhancements to reduce touch points; and
- Paying full salaries to employees who must stay home and/or are unable to work due to illness symptoms or other factors.
We are proud to be a part of the healthcare community and we stand behind our dedicated employees whose hard work building ventilators and other lifesaving critical care equipment is essential to combat this pandemic.
Help Meet the Need
ZOLL is working closely with existing and new suppliers to increase our supply of ventilators and their accessories. Maintaining a robust supply chain for all component inventory is critical to this goal.
If you are a current supplier or a potential new supplier and would like to discuss your offerings, please contact us.
ZOLL is also pleased to be a partner of Google VentConnect, an industry alliance bringing ventilator parts suppliers and procurement specialists together with ventilator manufacturers to help ensure efficient sourcing of needed components. Learn more about joining at Google VentConnect.Org.
