Following the direction of the Politburo and the Party Secretariat on the objectives of Quarter 1/2021 which required party levels to actively take the lead in the Covid-19 combat, joining the Government in providing Covid-19 vaccines to ensure the health and safety of its employees and customers, BIDV has recently announced its plan to purchase Covid-19 vaccines to inoculate employees and their families.

BIDV will actively work with the Ministry of Health and authorities to sign up for Covid-19 vaccines purchases which will be provided to its employees and their families. Each BIDV employee along with 4 family members will be offered Covid-19 inoculation. The bank’s welfare fund shall cover the cost of purchasing vaccines.

Banking is one of the essential services which must operate continuously to meet financial services and payment needs of the people and enterprises. Many bank workers have to work face-to-face with customers, thus facing a high rate of infection. Being offered to get vaccines for themselves and their families, the bank employees shall be safe in their work. Therefore, the continuous operation of the bank and the safety of customers will be guaranteed, which shows the bank’s social responsibility in combating the Covid-19 pandemic.

Earlier, in 2020, sharing the struggles with the people affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, BIDV provided nearly VND40 billion. Since January 2021, BIDV has emergency donated VND6.8 billion to provinces including Hai Duong, Quang Ninh and Gia Lai, for purchasing medical equipment and spending on Covid-19 combat.
