Taking care of Markem-Imaje employees

"At Markem-Imaje, we are people first, and in extraordinary and unprecedented circumstances, nothing is more important than the care, safety, and health of our employees and their loved ones." -wrote our CEO, Vincent Vanderpoel, in a letter to all employees in light of the Coronavirus pandemic in March 2020.

We have implemented a contingency plan in order to protect our employees and ensure their safety. Such as encouraging and enabling work from home. Canceling all non-essential travel. Educating our people on personal health and safety measures issued by the World Health Organization. And of course, everywhere across the world, Markem-Imaje is strictly applying any local restrictions and governmental instructions.

To keep up with the rapidly evolving situation, we are issuing regular communications to our employees around the world about the latest precautionary measures and guidelines.

• Commercial assistance and availability for your inquiries via our Account Managers and our trusted and accredited Distribution Partner staff around the world.
