A batch of 5,000 pairs of gloves, over 400 liters of disinfectant, 400 protective screens, as well as 40 thermometers for contactless temperature monitoring was shared among all the territorial offices of the National Employment Agency (NEA). All of this was purchased with the support of Switzerland and UNDP Moldova under the Migration and Local Development Project, which provided a similar batch to the 35 partner communities, IPN reports, quoting a press release of UNDP Moldova.
The Swiss Cooperation Office, in partnership with the United Nations Development Program in Moldova, support urgent measures aimed at preventing the risk of COVID-19 infection within the NEA and its 35 territorial employment offices. In the context of the epidemiological situation of the country and the risk of contracting the novel coronavirus, the employees of the institution have been provided with necessary protection equipment.
“Crises are actually an exam in social solidarity. This aid is proof that in this continuous struggle with the virus, employees of the National Employment Agency receive support to limit the spreading of the epidemic and to work in proper conditions, providing the citizens with the services that they need,” mentioned Raisa Dogaru, NEA Director.
