Hop Lun Apparel Limited recently organized a comprehensive ‘Seasonal Disease Prevention and Awareness Session’ at its factory premises in partnership with BRAC Healthcare. The initiative provided workers with free medical check ups as well as expert guidance on disease prevention, hygiene, and healthy living in order to safeguard their overall health and well-being.
During the session, workers underwent screenings for blood sugar, blood pressure and oxygen saturation levels. Any individuals diagnosed with adverse health conditions were immediately provided medical treatment by Hop Lun’s in-house medical team.
Additionally, two healthcare professionals from BRAC healthcare conducted interactive sessions with the workers, advising workers on preventing common illnesses, knowing when to consult a doctor, and effective ways to maintain overall health at home and in the workplace. They discussed about how health and work are deeply connected and how personal physical fitness is key to both professional performance and personal life.
Dr. Tahmid Hasan Probad, Manager, QA and Patient Experience at BRAC Healthcare Ltd., stated, “Through this partnership, we wanted to deliver quality healthcare access for workers and create health awareness among them. We firmly believe that a healthy worker thrives in the workplace with greater ease.”
Gulshan Ara, Social Initiatives Head, Hop Lun Bangladesh, added, “The physical and mental well-being of our workers is one of our top priorities. With this initiative, we aimed to make essential medical support more accessible for our workers and to equip them with the knowledge they need in order to maintain proper health.”
Hop Lun Apparel Limited remains dedicated to prioritizing worker well-being and continuing such health and welfare initiatives across its facilities in the future.
