Welfare Activities Done by Scan Steels Limited
Drinking Water
Odisha faces hard hitting summer during April, May and June every year. We installed a water cooler cum water filter for our workers. The installed water cooler-cum-filter supplies both normal and cold water to fulfill people’s various needs. Managing the drinking water shortage in our industry remains the prime focus of Scan Steels Limited’s social responsibility division and the problem has been solved effectively.
Creche Room
Scan Steels Limited provides a crèche room, to the lady workers for their infants between the age group of 90 days to 6 years. We believe that taking care of the children while their mothers (lady labors) are at work is our duty. Thus, we developed this crèche room inside our premises to offer a safe place for their children in their absence.
World Earth Day
On World Earth Day, Scan Steels Limited set a benchmark for all industries by initiating the “Plant More Trees” activity inside the company. We encourage everyone to do so which will deliver a green planet to our next generation. Through this initiation, we put emphasis on adopting eco-friendly practices, protecting the environment and implementing sustainability measures to grow plantation. We believe that we create an eco-friendly industrial landscape that describes sustainable manufacturing as the process of producing manufactured goods through the use of eco-friendly practices and materials that aim to reduce harmful impacts to the environment while conserving energy and protecting natural resources.
Health Camps
For a thriving business, you need thriving employees. It has already been said that success at work leads to happiness. For a business, it’s always important to have those who work for you to be fit, healthy, and happy. This is done through creating a work culture that promotes health through all aspects of their lives. Underlining the importance of health will help employees feel important. Thus, from 30th April’19 onwards, Scan Steels Limited has started establishing health camps at its several units spread across the states of Odisha and Karnataka where medicines are distributed free-of-cost.
Blood Donation Camp
Scan Steels Ltd in association with the Odisha Blood Bank, organizes a voluntary blood donation camp at its plant premises every year. Volunteer blood donors are always the silent supporters of humanity. Our officers and workers always come forward to donate their blood when it is required and we really appreciate them for their generous attitude.
“If you’re a blood donor, you’re a hero to someone, somewhere, who received your gracious gift of life.”
No Tobacco Day
No Tobacco Day was successfully celebrated in the campus of Scan Steels Limited, Ramabahal on 31st May. The annual campaign is an opportunity to raise awareness on the harmful and deadly effects of tobacco use and passive smoke exposure and to discourage the use of tobacco in any form. The focus is to educate people about the negative impacts of tobacco, on their lungs. The campaign was concluded by aiming to increase awareness on the fundamental role lungs play for the health and well-being of all people and to reduce the negative impact that tobacco has on people’s health, from cancer to chronic respiratory diseases.
“Smoking leaves an unseen scar, it fills your inside with Toxins & Tar.“
