Maria Rajesh, Chief Human Resource Officer, Embassy Group, said, “Being a people-first organization, Embassy Group believes the health and safety of our employees is of utmost importance. With the availability of vaccines for the 18+ age group, the country is seeing a spike in demand, along with other related challenges in accessing the vaccine. Through our vaccination drive, we want to ensure the health and wellbeing of our employees. We encourage other companies to come forward to set up vaccination drives and reduce the stress on the healthcare system of our country.”
With the impact of the 2nd wave of the pandemic experienced across the country, Embassy has extended all possible efforts towards the health and safety of its workers. Along with awareness programs on following Covid related protocols at construction sites and work places, the company has also set up medical camps and regular health checks for construction workers.
Embassy has also introduced covid insurance through ‘Corona Kavach’, helping employees take care of expenses in case they have tested positive for Covid-19 such as hospitalization expenses associated with PPE kits, oxygen cylinders, ventilators, consultation fees and pre/post hospitalization among other costs. Understanding importance of mental health during the pandemic, Embassy has also planned virtual wellness activities for its people such as relaxation yoga and mental health webinars.
These initiatives are crucial in addressing the overall physical and mental health of the workers and sets an example of leading with empathy.
