Vilma Paškevičienė, director of the RYO shopping center in Panevėžys, says that state-compensated tests are a problem, because there are long queues at points, people go to other cities to carry out sentences.
“It just came to our knowledge then. In large queues (at the test points – BNS), the registration is postponed even for a week and it is not possible to work without a negative test. We have a supermarket, so most of the tenants test centrally, they do it through their own channels. We are too small to establish our own test point, “V. Paškevičienė told LRT radio.
Rūta Vainienė, director of the Lithuanian Trade Companies Association, stated that the state was not prepared for the opening of shopping malls.
“Due to the queues, this was to be expected, as we are already trying to open for the third time, this already warned us that there may be problems with the scope of state-paid testing, but companies can do it at their own pace. on his own, “R. Vainienė told LRT radio.
“There really are all kinds of organizational problems and this is no longer news to us and we must accept it. The state was not ready to close or open, not even for such a pandemic. And that is the reality and you have to accept it ”, he added.
However, R. Vainienė said it positively evaluated the requirement that employees be tested.
“I do not think it is something redundant, impossible to implement, especially considering that epidemiology is not so good when it opens. This is a safer service for companies and employees ”, said the director of the association.
According to Dominykas Mertinas, head of the communication department of the Akropolis Group company, which manages the Akropolis shopping centers, the group installed test points in the shopping centers themselves during the weekend.
At Akropolis, we organize tests over the weekend to help tenants and their employees get back to work. There was a separate entrance to those facilities, a temporary test point, and I really know dozens of people and employees registered for those tests, ”said D. Mertin.
Starting Monday, work in Lithuania may be resumed by non-food or essential goods stores located in supermarkets, which have been unable to operate so far. They will only be able to work on weekdays and their activities are prohibited on weekends.
All outlets must have at least 50 square meters of the total mall area per person or only one person can be served at a time.
