FOR ŠKODA AUTO EMPLOYEES

UPDATED MEASURES AGAINST COVID-19
New government measures regarding COVID-19 took effect
in the Czech Republic on 21/10/2020. These measures also
apply to ŠKODA AUTO, especially in the following cases:
1
Airway protection is
mandatory in all exterior
and interior areas at ŠKODA
if there is a crowd of people
and no possibility to maintain
the 2m safety distance.
Typical example could be the
areas around the plant
entrances, canteen entrances,
break rooms / break spots,
etc.
2
Obligation to wear airway
airway protection still
applies to all types of public
or mass transportation.
3
Airway protection is
required in all passenger
and company cars (including
vans, trucks, etc.) with more
than a single person in the car,
unless all passengers are part
of the same household. This
measure applies to business
trips and plant transport too.
The updated overview of all preventive measures against COVID-19 at ŠKODA AUTO can be found at
ŠKODA Space. Thank you for thoroughly following these rules. We believe this will allow us to minimize
the pandemic’s impact on all our employees, their families and our company.
