英国劳氏船级社，世界领先的工程技术专业服务提供商之一，日前向位于武汉处于抗击新冠病毒第一线的长江航运总医院捐赠了一百万元人民币。

这笔捐款将通过北京红十字会定向直接捐赠给位于武汉的长江航运总医院。

英国劳氏船级社全球总裁及首席执行官Mr. Alastair Marsh 表示，“作为一家与中国合作超过150年的船级社，我们非常珍视这段长期且深刻的情谊。我们一直密切关注中方为防止新冠病毒疫情传播所做的努力。毋庸置疑，这是充满挑战的时刻，对那些痛失所爱的人们以及在抗击第一线辛勤工作的医护人员来说，更是如此。

英国劳氏船级社坚定地与中国人民站在一起，愿意为中国疫情防控工作提供支持。

谨此我也特向中国政府在此困难局面中所展现的应对能力和为防止病毒传播采取的各类措施表示敬意。我们相信，在中国政府强有力领导下，通过政府和人民的共同努力，此次疫情将很快得到控制。”

在大中华区拥有600名雇员的英国劳氏船级社，于1869年派遣第一位验船师来到上海。安全一直是劳氏船级社的核心。自新冠病毒疫情爆发以来，我们一直遵循有关部门的指示，确保员工及其家属的安全。我们的办公室是开放的，但我们通过安排许多员工远程工作，减少了在办公室的人员数量。船厂和客户现场的工作已经恢复，我们将继续关注事态发展。
