Recognizing the significance of a healthy community in the face of the COVID-19 global health crisis, the Pioneer Group composed of Pioneer Adhesives, Inc., Pioneer Specialty Building Systems, Inc., Kooler Industries, Inc., Tri-Vision Ventures, Inc., and Chef’s Secret, Inc.; initiated a vaccination program for the group’s workforce from August 25 to 27 at its Quezon City Head Office and the LMS, Laguna Plant.
The move aims to secure the health of all its employees amid the alarming rise in COVID-19 infections due to the emergence of the virus’ Delta strain. This initiative demonstrates the high level of care and concern of the group to its employees and part of its commitment to its set of corporate values, dubbed the 4W’s of Pioneer.
“The 4W’s of Pioneer values include “Walk the Talk”, “Wow in Everything”, “Win Together” and “Warm The Heart”. This is the company’s effort to uphold the quality of our services and products. During these trying times, it supports and sustains the well-being of our employees. Aside from the vaccination program, the company continues to pay the regular salaries and benefits of its employees even during the periods of extended lockdowns and quarantine measures imposed by the IATF” says Ms. Rexy Vagilidad, VP for Human Resources of Pioneer Adhesives, Inc.
While the global COVID-19 pandemic has turned the world on its head, the Pioneer Group of Companies has heeded the call of the Department of Health and the World Health Organization for individuals and organizations to get vaccinated and help achieve herd immunity faster. The company believes that this move will significantly mitigate the devastating effects of COVID-19 and its emerging variants.
The Pioneer Group of Companies has always responded to the needs of its employees, partners, customers, and the public at large. “Promoting our employees’ health through the vaccination program and by following health and safety protocols will ensure we continue to safely serve our customers both in the local and export markets. Our corporate social responsibility programs are essential components of Pioneer’s operations.
The Pioneer Group of Companies has always initiated programs to help individuals and communities achieve sustainable growth and development,” says Mr. Edwin Avillon, GM & COO of Pioneer Adhesives Group of Companies, and President of Kooler Industries, Inc.
