Mauser Packaging Solutions is committed to the health and safety of all employees, customers, partners and the communities we serve. As the situation around COVID-19 (Coronavirus) continues to evolve, we are closely monitoring and adhering to the guidance of global and local agencies as well as implementing proactive preparedness measures.
An increasing number of states and countries have imposed mandatory “shelter in place” and “stay at home” orders. Mauser Packaging Solutions is considered an “essential business” or “critical infrastructure” due to our role in supplying vital products and services for other essential businesses. These businesses manufacture cleaning and sanitizing products, agricultural products, water treatment chemicals, food ingredients, and pharmaceutical products that support the public’s health and safety. For this reason, we have been granted permission, and are highly encouraged, to maintain operations.
I am incredibly proud of our employees on the front line who continue to keep our operations running in order to serve our customers and communities around the world. Their dedication and hard work ensures that we all have access to food and other critical supplies.
We recognize the extra efforts made by our employees to keep our plants and our customers running. As such, Mauser Packaging Solutions is announcing a special payment of one million dollars paid to plant-based employees. The true heroes in this story are our employees, and we want to provide them with additional resources and support to help them continue their remarkable effort.
Ensuring a safe and healthy environment for all of our employees is paramount and we have detailed plans in place to protect our personnel. A global task force team meets daily to ensure the decisions we make are based on the most current information, and with a focus on the well-being of our employees.
We understand that our operations are critical to support business continuity, health and safety in many countries, and the global economy. We will do everything we can to supply our customers by keeping our employees safe, plants operating, and service uninterrupted. While COVID-19 is an unprecedented situation, we are proud to be part of this fight.
Sincerely,
Ken Roessler
