ANTI-COVID-19 MEASURES
The carmaker will relax the rules as soon as possible
e have managed to keep the number of coronavirus infections at ŠKODA AUTO to just a few individuals. However, it is necessary to observe all the health and hygiene rules. As soon as it is possible to relax the rules, the carmaker will move to the phase 2 in agreement with the KOVO Unions. The measures are available on the ŠKODA Space portal. Further information is provided on the Vimeo channel, in the weekly Týdeník paper and leaflets, on bulletin boards and also by executives and foremen.
Do not remove face masks
From 25 May, the government has allowed people to move about outdoors without protective equipment for airways, but this obligation still applies to all the carmaker’s indoor and outdoor areas (exceptions are only possible at sites with significant heat radiation). Keeping the measure in place greatly contributes to preventing any further spread of the coronavirus.

Free tests
The carmaker gives all employees the option to be tested. Samples are taken in the health centres at the factories. It is a blood test that indicates the presence of antibodies, not the virus itself. You can use the new reservation system developed as part of the SVP project (ŠKODA Verbesserungsprozess) in order to be tested at the ŠKODA Health Centre (Poliklinika) in Mladá Boleslav. Here, samples are taken daily from noon to 4 p.m.
