Transport Mangement during Covid-19

The outbreak of a novel human Coronavirus SARS-Cov which was first identified in Wuhan, China, in
late 2019, has spread rapidly throughout the world. Due to which unprecedented global lockdown 
bought transportation and Courier services in inoperative mode. In protecting both personal and public
health during the crisis, SK followed a new concept of Responsible Transport to help, inform and shape
transport facilities and practice responses to COVID. Before COVID, much of the emphasis in transport
policy was manual driven and labour oriented, We have introduced Smart technological
interventions and sustained mobility. The novelty of this proposal lies in the fact that it incorporates
not only environmental considerations with respect to sustainability but also encompasses
considerations of individual and community health and wellbeing. As essential medicine supplies were
interrupted, SK Logistics has managed to serve the customers and ensured uninterrupted supply of
medicines. It was imperative to send medicines to stockiest /distributor /institutions in this scenario.
