Gulf Oil has taken a great initiative, and I wish them success with their campaign – Union Minister Nitin Gadkari
Mumbai (India CSR): Gulf Oil Lubricants, a Hinduja Group Company, extended one-year free healthcare support to more than 10,000 truckers across 12 cities on the backdrop of Raksha Bandhan as a part of its ‘Gulf Superfleet Suraksha Bandhan’ campaign which is in its 4th season.
The free healthcare program is driven to support the trucker community that usually battles the odds to provide essentials to the nation. The one-of-a-kind program aims to empower the trucker community & be more mindful of their health requirements and avail medical needs while on the go. The program ensures the protection of over 10,000 families as the breadwinner is covered for health and accidental issues. Gulf Oil has roped in Onsurity as a healthcare partner for execution of this noble cause.
Rs. 3 lakh accidental and 1 lakh health cover
Truckers from Delhi/NCR, Jaipur, Kolkata, Faridabad, Indore, Kanpur, Varanasi, Surat, Ludhiana, Navi Mumbai, and Nalagarh were the first beneficiaries of the plan. They can now enjoy upto 4 lakh (3 lakh accidental and 1 lakh health cover) worth of healthcare cover, medical facilities like free online/on-call doc appointments, discounts on medicines, health check-ups, etc. on the go. With this initiative, Gulf Oil not only achieved its goal but was also able to raise health awareness among India’s trucking community.
