Campaign featuring a well-known Polish temporary worker!

In the Netherlands, everyone has now had the opportunity to be vaccinated. For the group of migrant workers who live and work in the Netherlands, it is more difficult to make an appointment, partly because they usually do not have a DigiD and often do not have sufficient command of the Dutch and English languages. For this group, the GGD, in collaboration with employers, has made group appointments possible. We, Flexible Human Services, seize this opportunity with both hands, because the health of our employees is our top priority and, moreover, vaccination is our way out of this pandemic. We want to encourage as many temporary employees as possible to get vaccinated. In addition to a special page on our website with information about the corona virus in various languages and an extensive social guidance team that is currently working day in day out on the vaccination process, we are also campaigning to encourage our temporary employees to get vaccinated. We regularly send messages with information and vaccination options, we post messages on Social Media and last weekend, with the permission of GGD Hollands-Midden, we recorded a video about how the vaccination process works. Adrian Nkwamu, proclaimed the 1st Vice Mister of Poland in Poland, and our temporary employee, appears as an ambassador in this video.

We have a collaboration with various GGD regions, and in the meantime, over 400 temporary workers have been helped by us in getting vaccinated by the GGD. As our temporary workers are accustomed to, we assist where necessary, including making this appointment and providing transportation. We drive from the head of North Holland to South Holland and from the coast to Utrecht to offer everyone the opportunity. In this way, we try to keep it attractive and accessible for our temporary workers. Every weekend, we are on the road with coaches and FHS vans, all with face masks on, of course, to bring everyone who has an appointment to the GGD vaccination locations! On location, questions can be asked to an FHS contact person, and a GGD interpreter is present. Whether our temporary workers get vaccinated is always their own choice! If they want to, we make it as easy as possible for them!

We are proud of these developments and are already busy with the next group that can be vaccinated this weekend. Talent to… work together!
