(Reuters) -Apple Inc said on Friday that it is starting a program to help employees get voluntary COVID-19 vaccinations at the iPhone maker's offices.
The company is working with drugstore chain Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA) Inc as its vendor and will open a website for its workers to sign up for appointments, an Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) spokeswoman said.
Apple is one of the first large Silicon Valley companies to launch a program to help workers get vaccinated.
Deutsche Bank AG (DE:DBKGn) earlier this month became the first big bank in New York to say it would offer employees COVID-19 vaccinations at its offices.
Last month, Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) started onsite vaccinations for front-line employees, starting in Missouri, Nevada and Kansas.
