Humana temporarily reduces its textile collection activity
17-04-2020
Humana will temporarily suspend the selective textile collection service in various areas of Spain as a consequence of the global health crisis. The Foundation's desire from the beginning of this exceptional situation has been to maintain the service until circumstances allow it, since the organization has a clear commitment to citizens and to its city councils and collaborating companies.
The state of alarm forced Humana to temporarily close its store network on March 14. Days later, the activity of the preparation plants for reuse was halted and an ERTE was presented for 85% of the workforce.
Now, the Foundation's textile management capacity is very limited, which is why it is forced to temporarily suspend selective collection work in Galicia, Asturias, and the Valencian Community, as well as in various areas of Andalusia, Community of Madrid. and Catalonia, as part of the gradual reduction plan of the service that is being carried out, to adapt the organization to the current unfavorable context.
The Foundation team has begun to adequately seal the containers that are no longer operational and to place in them an information note on the temporary suspension of service so that citizens do not deposit clothing and footwear in them. In total, 60% of the more than 5,000 Humana containers in Spain will cease to be operational.
The service remains active in most of the Community of Madrid and Catalonia, as well as in the capital Seville. Humana personnel continue with their collection efforts, taking extreme measures to prevent and protect them, as well as to disinfect containers and vehicles.
The objective is to resume service in the rest of Spain as soon as circumstances allow. Until then, please keep your donations of clothing and footwear at your home and do not deposit them in the containers.
Thank you
