(Thanh Oai industrial cluster, Thanh Oai district) also show that epidemic prevention measures are taken drastically. As a unit specializing in the production of intravenous fluids and single-use medical products, with more than 1,500 workers, in order to effectively prevent and control the Covid-19 epidemic, the company soon established a Risk Control Committee. , operating 24 hours a day.

If the situation of the Covid-19 epidemic continues to be complicated, we have planned to isolate all workers on the spot to maintain production, “said Nguyen Viet Hung. These days, local governments in the city also join hands with businesses to carry out epidemic prevention and control to maintain production. According to Chairman of Quoc Oai District People’s Committee Nguyen Truong Son, in the district there are 30 enterprises with more than 2,000 employees working in Ngoc Liep and Yen Son industrial clusters. Together with businesses to ensure safety for production, local authorities have strengthened supervision of the implementation of epidemic prevention measures such as: Disinfection of cargo vehicles and production areas; comply with the message “5K” (mask – disinfection – distance – do not gather – medical declaration)… In particular, the district updated and promptly implemented the directives of the central and city on the prevention and control of the Covid-19 epidemic in industrial zones and clusters to all enterprises; which emphasizes the responsibility of business leaders in realizing “dual goals”… Deputy Head of the Management Board of Hanoi Industrial Parks and Export Processing Zones Tran Anh Tuan assessed that most businesses operating in industrial clusters and industrial parks have strictly implemented Covid-19 prevention measures.

With the characteristics of a large concentration of workers, the new strain of SARS-CoV-2 virus has a rapid spread, so industrial zones and clusters become very high-risk points if disease prevention is neglected. Moreover, as soon as there is an infection, a workshop or even an entire factory may have to stop production, the damage is difficult to measure. As proof of this, Vice Chairman of Thuong Tin District People’s Committee Bui Cong Than said, right after detecting positive cases of SARS-CoV-2 virus at Sland Company (Hien Giang commune, Thuong Tin district) in the middle of the week. In May 2021, the district reviewed and immediately quarantined F1 cases and requested home isolation of F2s, including the company’s leadership and many workers. Accordingly, the entire paint and chemical production line must also stop working, and unfinished products must be discarded. According to Chairman of the Board of Directors of TOMECO An Khang Joint Stock Company Le Quy Kha, the most worry of enterprises is that the disease will delay production. “In 2020, the Covid-19 epidemic broke out, production was halted, the company’s revenue decreased. In the first 4 months of 2021, orders and production activities have recovered, if the disease is “attacked”, businesses will face many difficulties. Therefore, we always work together with the city to strictly implement regulations on epidemic prevention and control so that the production chain is not broken,” said Mr. Le Quy Kha. Talking about this issue, Deputy Director of Hanoi Department of Industry and Trade Dam Tien Thang said that the city has assigned the Department to act as a standing agency in inspecting and supervising the prevention and control of Covid-19 epidemic and maintaining production in industrial zones and clusters in Hanoi. Through the inspection, in general, businesses and local authorities have been fiercely involved. But the level of vigilance must be raised further. In fact, doing well in epidemic prevention and control in industrial zones and clusters without letting the production chain be “broken” is also a solution to efforts to realize the “dual goal” and effectively prevent and control the Covid-19 epidemic. result, economic and social development. With the resolute measures of all levels and sectors, the efforts of the business community and workers will help Hanoi city’s industrial zones and clusters be protected safely and maintain production activities.
