A total of 75 employees working as frontliners for the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) Central Office in Pasay City were vaccinated with the help of the Pasay City local government unit's vaccination program.
The administration of the first dose to 75 CAAP workers was held at the giga vaccination hub at the Galeon of the MOA Complex, Pasay City.
"CAAP is grateful to the Pasay City local government unit. With this endeavor, we want to show our fellow employees that we are serious in our goal of protecting the CAAP community from COVID-19 by advocating for the vaccination of our employees," CAAP Director General Captain Jim C. Sydiongco said.
DG Sydiongco also encouraged other CAAP employees to get vaccinated: "To safely move forward in facing the new normal, getting fully vaccinated will ensure that we are reducing risks of infection and illness not only in the workplace but also at home."
CAAP is set to have another batch of employees vaccinated through the program.
