AVSECO KEEPS FRONTLINE SAFE AND SECURE

To safeguard passengers and airport staff from COVID-19, staff members of Aviation Security Company Limited (AVSECO) has been going beyond their usual airport security duties and playing a crucial role on the frontline against the pandemic.

Since February, around 400 AVSECO staff have been tasked to handle various quarantine- related duties, including passenger temperature checks, checking health declaration forms, and putting on electronic tracking wristbands. They have also been assisting in the collection of deep-throat saliva samples for COVID-19 testing, such as distributing specimen bottles and checking storage temperature of the specimen collected. The group has also played a key role in escorting inbound passengers, and facilitating the return of charter flights for Hong Kong residents. It has not been an easy job, but with internal communication and trainings, proper gear, as well as the health advice and guidelines from the Department of Health, AVSECO staff have been handling the new challenges with aplomb.
