“We are pleased to launch the Periodic Occupational Health Assessment Program for our staff across all sectors. The health and safety of our employees are at the core of our values and operations. In line with Qatar National Vision 2030 and the National Health Strategy, we take pride in launching this program, which demonstrates our firm commitment to fostering a safe and healthy work environment and contributes to the broader national goals of public health promotion and sustainable human development.
This program enables the early detection of work-related health concerns and empowers our staff to take charge of their well-being. We strongly encourage everyone to actively participate in this initiative—not only for their personal health, but also as part of our collective responsibility to build a healthier, more resilient workforce for the future of Qatar.”
