The Ministry of Education and Higher Education has awarded a contract to Boecker, the Middle East and Central Africa’s public health pioneer, to disinfect government schools that have remained closed throughout the country since mid-March .
The contract will see Boecker disinfecting 217 government schools on a weekly basis over the next 10 weeks with a 100 percent biodegradable disinfectant that is non-toxic and non-corrosive, and has residual effect. The disinfection is the first step in a planned extensive precaution and prevention control programme being implemented by the ministry to safeguard the safety of all students, faculty and staff in the country’s educational institutions.
According to a press release by Boecker, the ministry has confirmed that the procedure is aimed at ensuring the wellbeing of students, faculty and staff members during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Boecker, which has 23 years’ experience in the disinfection of private and public places, has dedicated highly trained technicians to carry out the disinfection of the schools to international safety standards wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and using the latest misting and spraying technology.
Since February 15 this year, the company was in the front-line of defending public safety during the COVID-19 pandemic and has provided more than 400 tonnes of sanitising and disinfecting products in 12 countries on three continents and has carried out more than 356,000 manhours of infection control treatments. This why the Ministry of Education and Higher Education has put its trust in Boecker to provide utmost safety and disinfection procedures in the country’s government schools.
The contract has been awarded to Boecker under the supervision of Macro Qatar, a facility services managing agent which supports the ministry in creating and maintaining a safe and secure environment through best-in-class facilities management, service delivery practices and modern technology.
