Vaccination support to large oil and gas companies during COVID-19

Overview

International SOS provided vaccination support to large oil and gas companies in Alberta & British Columbia, Canada, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Service: Assistance
Location: Alberta & British Columbia, Canada

Problem

A number of our key oil and gas clients in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada, were concerned and urgently needed support to their 11,000+ employees with their COVID-19 vaccination programme roll-out.

Solution

After listening to our clients' concerns, we were able to cooperate closely with the regional health authorities to mobilise over 40 experienced licensed nurses, set up multiple vaccination points, and administer over 10,000 first vaccination doses within a couple of weeks. Our medical team was able to vaccinate the majority of our client's employees with their second dose bringing the total to just over 20,000 doses, and ensuring an efficient roll-out programme.

Impact

The impact was very positive as this successful programme delivery has enabled our clients to avert emergency, protect their workforce by reaching herd immunity, and ensure business continuity.
