The hospitality industry is ‘more than willing to help’ speed up the vaccine rollout by leveraging its 48,000 businesses to communicate information to the public.
On Wednesday, industry associations and 30 chief executives of some of the country’s largest employers attended a forum hosted by Treasurer Josh Frydenberg to discuss the role of businesses in the vaccine rollout.
The Operation Covid Shield National Business Partnership Forum, also attended by Lieutenant General John Frewen, professor Paul Kelly and doctor Stephen Kennedy, looked at how different industries can help speed up the rollout by using their premises, communicating to staff and the public, and by offering incentives.
