The Chelyabinsk Pipe Plant (ChelPipe Group), a leading Russian producer of
tubular products and a supplier of integrated solutions for the oil and gas
industry, announces measures to prevent infectious diseases and COVID-19 at
its premises.
HSE is of utmost priority for ChelPipe, and the Group has developed an
anti-crisis plan to prevent infectious diseases at its offices and
production sites. The measures include restriction of business and personal
travel in Russia and abroad for ChelPipe Group employees and switching from
business meetings in person to remote negotiations using advanced technical
solutions. Production shifts and handover procedures are scheduled to
minimise personal contact.
Some of the Company employees nowwork remotely, and the students of the
corporate Future of METAllurgyeducation programme proceed with online
learning using advanced classroom technology. ChelPipe Group has suspended
its corporate mass events scheduled for the first ten days of April until
the epidemiological situation improves, with the event calendar to be
updated subject to circumstances.
The Company's production sites are equipped with hand sanitiser which is
within easy reach; employees have their temperature measured on a daily
basis; offices and production shops are additionally sanitised with
disinfectants.
Moreover, we have intensified our internal communications on the measures
being taken to prevent viral infections, as recommended by Rospotrebnadzor
(Russian Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and
Human Wellbeing). Awareness posters are displayed at all the Company's
facilities, and there is ongoing communication via email and text messages,
the intranet, corporate newspaper and radio.
"Health is one of the key values of the corporate philosophy of ChelPipe
Group, and the Company is actively working to prevent the spread of
infectious diseases and to protect the health of its employees. ChelPipe
Group will continue to effectively implement a set of approved measures, as
well as providing support to employees via a hotline which operates through
"Vsya Medicina", the Company's corporate medical centre. Please rest assured
that ChelPipe Group continues to operate as usual," says Boris Kovalenkov,
