Energy Conservation

Our Company is also focused towards energy conservation. In this area, different initiatives have been taken like replacement of equipment and yard high intensity lights with LED lights, reduction of paper usage through introducing thermal printers etc.

Blood Donation Camp

Pakistan has low rate of blood donation because of lack of education and guidance about its importance. People in our country do not intend to donate voluntary blood and hence, as a result, the rate of blood donation has dropped to less than 1%. However, the amount of blood collected is insufficient to fulfil the need of the country in proliferating diseases like hepatitis, anemia, HIV, etc. So our company took an initiative for it and set-up a blood donation camp in co-ordination with Indus Hospital in February 2017 to prompt the feeling of responsibility in our employees towards the society. The employees of the company volunteered to donate blood to the needy patients. The camp included two awareness sessions to enable the employees to understand the importance and need of blood donation and to motivate them to become someone’s life saviour.

Hepatitis Awareness Session

Hepatitis is becoming a prevalent disease in Pakistan; a disease that can turn out fatal if trivialized. WHO estimates that approximately 71 million people have hepatitis C infection worldwide and around 400,000 people die every year from it. We cannot afford losing more precious lives. Hence, there’s an acute need of spreading awareness about the chronic nature of the illness and how we can prevent ourselves from it. PICT, concerning the need of the society, organized a session on awareness of hepatitis. The session was conducted in collaboration with Dr. Sabeen Shah (Head of Hepatitis program) from Indus Hospital in July 2017. The focus of the session was to create awareness regarding Hepatitis which, according to a recent health survey has been named as 'a silent storm' due to its rising trend.

Visit at Dar Ul Sukun

We live in a society where people all around us need our attention, help and care in one way or the other. It is our responsibility to succour each member of the society, especially the ones who can’t live by unaided. For that sake, representatives from our Company visited Dar ul Sukun, a place for mentally disabled people in November 2017 where they got involved in different activities with the special people such as helping them in their routine work, listening to their concerns, preparing drawings with them, serving meals, helping them in performing their different physical exercises and distributing gifts.
