Amid the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic, the Finland-based Rauma Shipyard announced that shuts down its operations as 239 workers found coronavirus positive.

According to local sources, approximately 800 workers at Rauma shipyard have been ordered to quarantine after a major coronavirus outbreak at the facility.

In addition, around 1.000 of the yard’s employees have been tested over the past week, with 240 of them testing positive.

In light of the situation, the shipbuilder will resume production after the corona closure in a composed and controlled manner.

What is more, the company is expected to restart production at Rauma Shipyard in stages starting on Thursday 25 February.

“We will resume production in a restrained manner. On Thursday and Friday, only a few dozen workers who have not been at the shipyard during the corona exposure will return to work. There will be no working at the shipyard over the weekend so we can take the time to prepare for the following week. The next workers returning to the shipyard will arrive next Monday, and the number will be increased day by day. All measures aim to get production up and running in safe working conditions”.

…Jyrki Heinimaa, CEO of Rauma Marine Constructions, added.

Concluding, all of the affected workers will be required to undergo a coronavirus test before being permitted back on the job.

“We require negative test results from those returning to work. We will also increase random testing and, among other things, find out possibilities for quick testing when arriving to work. Entering the shipyard area while sick is not permitted.”… Heinimaa stated.
