Our activity is recognized as essential by the government.
Indeed, as a health product manufacturer, Unither Pharmaceuticals must maintain the supply of pharmaceutical products to patients who need them. We must carry out this mission and take all necessary measures to minimize the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we have taken a series of preventive measures, such as:
The application and regular reminder of all preventive measures (surgical mask use, 1 meter distance between individuals, regular hand washing , etc.),
Improved hygiene measures (regular disinfection of production areas, work stations and contact points, etc.),
- Providing hydroalcoholic solution for staff,
- Restricting the site access to external companies staff, unless agreed by the Direction
- The reception of carriers in a zone of deposit respecting strict hygiene rules,
- The implementation of remote-working when possible,
- Arranging timetables to minimize the number of persons in the same space ( cafeteria, break room, etc.)
The management meets daily and adopts specific procedures to ensure the maintenance of the Group’s activity. Up until now, no significant risk that could impact the supply of our pharmaceutical products has been identified. We are committed to keep you informed if we foresee any impact on supply.
Thank you to all our teams and partners who are committed to facilitate patients’ lives. We will make the best possible to protect our employees during this COVID-19 outbreak, while we continue to meet our clients’ needs.
