About 3,000 workers in the hospitality industry have received the Covid-19 vaccine as at Monday, after an inoculation programme for the industry was rolled out on Jan 15.
About two-thirds are staff at stay-home notice (SHN) dedicated facilities, said Minister of State for Trade and Industry Alvin Tan yesterday.
He was speaking on the sidelines of a visit to a vaccination centre at Raffles City Convention Centre, where he witnessed hospitality staff receiving their shots.
The industry was picked as an early recipient of the vaccine as its workers have been on the front lines since March last year, with 70 hotels serving as SHN dedicated facilities, said Mr Tan.
Prior to joining Pan Pacific Singapore, Paul was the managing director of Emerald Palace Kempinski, Dubai and Kempinski Hotel Residences Palm Jumeirah.
In total, the hotelier worked for 16 years with the Jumeirah Group both in London and Dubai, progressing to the role of general manager of the iconic Burj Al Arab and prior to that, was general manager of Madinat Jumeirah overseeing four hotels.
