Rapid and significant interventions in the health care system, including occupational safety and working environment improvement, are needed in order for the system to work effectively under significant stress and to overcome the unprecedented challenges associated with the COVID-19 outbreak.The project will support copper and non-medical staff by providing additional remuneration and due social security contributions. In addition to providing safe working conditions to medical and non-copper staff engaged in the care of hospitalised patients with suspicion of or proven infection of new COVID-19, due to the specificity of the high risk to the health of the staff, additional remuneration is provided for the care of contagious patients, related both to the performance of the activity under specific risk conditions and to the need for work organisation in the conditions of relative shortage of staff caused by the epidemic situation (replacement regime, observance of containment measures and protocols, etc.). All this requires a high level of moral and professional commitment of the staff serving this category of patients, as part of the motivation is the remuneration provided. Training is needed to implement good practices for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in hospitals and to prevent the occurrence and spread of cases to staff, patients and the prevention and treatment of healthcare-associated infections.
