How do they keep safe while ramping up their business?

thyssenkrupp worldwide | Work safety | About two years ago, Acciai Speciali Terni Production Managers team were honoured for their successful campaign to promote occupational safety at the thyssenkrupp stainless steel mill Acciai Speciali Terni (AST). In times of increasing corona infections in Italy, the team now donated its prize money of 25,000 euros to the Santa Maria Hospital in the city of Terni, in southern Umbria. The donation enabled the purchase of a portable ultrasound machine for faster diagnosis of corona patients.

After the outbreak of Corona in Italy, rapid assistance is still very much needed. In the heart of the Piemont region in northern Italy, which was severely affected by Corona, the hospital in Verduno has to open much earlier than planned. Capacities for 500 corona patients are to be created. For Enrico Vanni, Installation Manager for Italy at thyssenkrupp Elevator Italia, one thing was immediately clear: He was going to helping! Vanni and his team of nine experts, who come from the region itself, installed the urgently needed elevators within 14 days. In an interview, Enrico Vanni talked about the work at Verduno Hospital and life in the region surrounding Turin in times of Corona.

Appropriate protective clothing for medical personnel, volunteers or risk groups is in short supply worldwide. To help these everyday heroes, aid initiatives are being set up around the world - as well as at thyssenkrupp.
