The leader of the Spartan restaurant chain, Ștefan Mandachi, launched a raffle for his employees through which he will reward the vaccination with 10,000 lei. DC NEWS contacted him to find out what was behind the decision.

“The idea of the raffle came to me very simply, given the fact that several key employees in our company fell ill. Obviously, we wondered what would happen if they got so sick. Then, in order to motivate the employees, I thought that it would be a motivating factor to offer a prize to those who get vaccinated “, Mandachi transmitted, EXCLUSIVELY for DC NEWS.
Asked what answer he expects from employees, Mandachi explained that everyone “will react positively to the news that there is a prize.” “Now we don’t know how many will be vaccinated, we see. That’s why I left until May 15, to have time to schedule during April and to actually get vaccinated. The decision is made by them “, continued the entrepreneur from Suceava.
Mandachi does not force anyone to get vaccinated
“We, the company, want to be vaccinated, we would like to, but I didn’t tell anyone to get vaccinated, and we won’t tell themMandachi added. “It is their independent decision and we do not interfere in decision making. But, as the leader of the company, I thought it would be a solution to motivate them somehow. How to motivate them better than money?”.
The entrepreneur supports vaccinations and has been immunized several times in his life
After learning that the people of Suceava were less scheduled for vaccination than in other parts of the country, he explained: “I would like to have as many as possible [programări]. In my life I got several vaccines and when I went to Africa, twice. And in Tanzania, and in Rwanda and Uganda. I never died, on the contrary, I felt more protected “.
A wave of negative and insulting comments on the vaccination post
“It simply came to our notice then. I don’t really read the comments of idiots anymore, but there are a lot of people who have no idea what’s going on with their heads and have found themselves offended or swear not understanding the substance of the matter. We have 1,100 employees. Think about what happens if half of the executive board is contaminated. They have to be replaced by others and not all jobs can be done through telework“, Also said Ștefan Mandachi.
“Besides, I want to get rid of the pandemic once and that’s why I see a light at the end of the tunnel, through vaccination. This is my personal opinion. If there are other opinions, very well, only in communism were the same opinions everywhere “, added the entrepreneur.
Will we get out of the pandemic this summer?
“What I want is for there to be no discrimination between industries. I am able to provide very high protection if needed. Even in fine dining restaurants we can serve with disposable cutlery, we can make plastic perimeters, we can protect both customers and employees. We are also capable of doing this.
I don’t speak for myself. From all the discussions I had with my colleagues, things are not very rosy if the HoReCa industry will be closed again this summer. I think a lot of them will collapse “, he concluded.
