英國勞氏船級社捐款一百萬元人民幣以支持中國抗擊新冠病毒

英國勞氏船級社，世界領(lǐng)先的工程技術(shù)專業(yè)服務(wù)提供商之一，日前向位于武漢處于抗擊新冠病毒第一線的長江航運總醫(yī)院捐贈了一百萬元人民幣。

這筆捐款將通過北京紅十字會定向直接捐贈給位于武漢的長江航運總醫(yī)院。

英國勞氏船級社全球總裁及首席執(zhí)行官Mr. Alastair Marsh 表示，“作為一家與中國合作超過150年的船級社，我們非常珍視這段長期且深刻的情誼。我們一直密切關(guān)注中方為防止新冠病毒疫情傳播所做的努力。毋庸置疑，這是充滿挑戰(zhàn)的時刻，對那些痛失所愛的人們以及在抗擊第一線辛勤工作的醫(yī)護(hù)人員來說，更是如此。

英國勞氏船級社堅定地與中國人民站在一起，愿意為中國疫情防控工作提供支持。

謹(jǐn)此我也特向中國政府在此困難局面中所展現(xiàn)的應(yīng)對能力和為防止病毒傳播采取的各類措施表示敬意。我們相信，在中國政府強(qiáng)有力領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，通過政府和人民的共同努力，此次疫情將很快得到控制。”

在大中華區(qū)擁有600名雇員的英國勞氏船級社，于1869年派遣第一位驗船師來到上海。安全一直是勞氏船級社的核心。自新冠病毒疫情爆發(fā)以來，我們一直遵循有關(guān)部門的指示，確保員工及其家屬的安全。我們的辦公室是開放的，但我們通過安排許多員工遠(yuǎn)程工作，減少了在辦公室的人員數(shù)量。船廠和客戶現(xiàn)場的工作已經(jīng)恢復(fù)，我們將繼續(xù)關(guān)注事態(tài)發(fā)展。

Lloyd’s Register, one of the world’s leading providers of professional services for engineering and technology, has donated RMB 1 million to the Yangtze River Shipping General Hospital in Wuhan, which is at the frontline of the fight against COVID-19.

The donation will be directed to Yangtze River Shipping General Hospital in Wuhan by the Red Cross Charity of China, Beijing Branch.

Alastair Marsh, Group Chief Executive of Lloyd’s Register, said: “Lloyd’s Register has worked with China for more than 150 years and we value our long and significant relationship. We have been closely watching the efforts being undertaken to contain the spread of the coronavirus. There is no doubt that these are challenging times, especially for those who have lost loved ones, as well as for the medical workers serving so tirelessly in the fight against this disease.

“Lloyd’s Register stands firmly together with the Chinese people and would like to support the prevention and control of the situation in China.”

He added: “I would also like to pay tribute to the Chinese government for its response to this difficult situation and the many measures it has taken to control the spread of the coronavirus. We believe that under the strong leadership of the Chinese government and through the joint efforts of the government and its people, the outbreak will soon be brought under control.”

Lloyd’s Register, which has 600 employees in Greater China, sent its first surveyor to Shanghai in 1869. Safety has always been at the core of what Lloyd’s Register does. Since the outbreak of COVID-19,we have followed the guidance of the authorities to ensure the welfare of our employees and their families. Our offices are open but with reduced staffing with many office-based personnel working remotely. Work on yards and clients’ sites has resumed and we continue to monitor the situation.
