MAS Holdings yesterday said it decided to close the Bodyline Ltd’s Horana plant after 34 of its staff were infected with COVID-19.
Following the text of MAS Holdings’ statement.
The safety of our employees is the number one priority at all MAS facilities, and this is very much the case at Bodyline (Horana) as well, where we have implemented stringent health and safety measures to ensure this.
The factory has had weekly audits by the local PHI’s and conducted more than 550 random PCR tests on all its Team Members since the outbreak of the Minuwangoda cluster in the community, with a view of early detection in the event of a positive COVID case within the facility.
In such a routine round of PCR testing, we were informed by the Horana MOH at midnight on Friday the 30th of October that one of our team members tested positive for COVID-19.
The following key points outline the timelines and actions taken by the Management of Bodyline after receiving confirmation of the positive diagnosis;
We are in touch with the Horana Health and Police Authorities in taking further action based on their instructions. We will continue to monitor the situation proactively in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and take necessary action to prevent the spread of this virus within our facilities and in the communities we operate in.
