The Publicis Groupe’s global chief Arthur Sadoun has reached out to all Indian employees offering the organisation’s support amid the second Covid-19 wave.

3) Support with hotels and other accommodation for anyone who in need of a safe space to quarantine
 
4) Acceleration of vaccine access for staff and their families. This also includes access to a larger network of hospitals across India so employees can find a location near them to get vaccinated
 
5) Coverage of all vaccination costs for staff and their dependents
 
6) Announcement of the Community Channel, a platform for employees to share information, and help, with a support line that is monitored 24/7
