Translink records transport worker experiences during pandemic  

A nine-part film series showcases the workers keeping NI moving  

Translink has launched a nine-part film series documenting the real experiences of its staff who have been working hard to keep the country moving as lockdown eases and recovery progresses.

The series captures the spirit of Translink staff who have adapted to a new way of working while continuing to deliver services for those who really need them.

Each short video delves into the reality for individuals working through the crisis, asking how they feel life has changed since lockdown, how it has felt being an essential worker and what their hopes and dreams are for brighter days ahead.

The staff videos will be shared on Translink’s social media channels from Wednesday 17th June to open a window into the world of its key workers.

 

Speaking about the series, Translink Deputy Group Chief Executive, Gordon Milligan, said:

“At one of the most challenging periods in our lifetime, our staff have continued to drive this country forward by ensuring we have a public transport service running when essential workers need it most.

“The videos showcase some of the many staff at Translink who have worked through what will go down in history as an unprecedented crisis and we want to thank them for their heroic efforts.

“They have adapted and innovated to keep our services running, showing great resilience and dedication and we are proud to pay tribute to all our amazing colleagues across the country.”
