Robi employees get insurance benefits

Robi has teamed up with Green Delta Insurance Ltd to provide insurance coverage to countrywide sales representatives and supervisors of authorised distributors of Robi.

The insurance benefits will cover OPD costs, hospitalisation, disability and natural and accidental death coverage for distribution house employees, said a press release issued on Tuesday.

Most importantly, this is the first time in the industry where Robi is providing insurance facilities to the family members of distribution sales representatives.

A memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed recently in this regard between the two organisations at Robi’s corporate office at Gulshan in the capital.

Robi’s Chief Commercial Officer Shihab Ahmed and Green Delta Insurance’s Additional Managing Director Syed Moinuddin Ahmed signed the MoU on behalf of their respective organisations, according to the release.

Moinuddin Ahmed said, “This agreement is the first of its kind in the industry to cater to the healthcare and wellness needs of the field force of telecom industry and we are really excited to be part of this initiative.”

“We hope this initiative would contribute to attaining SDG goals such as good health and well-being, decent work and economic growth, reduced inequalities, partnership for goals and thus outline a new standard of workforce welfare in Bangladesh.”

As a result of the said agreement, Robi’s distribution sales representatives and their family members will also be eligible to receive 24/7 telemedicine service, cashless service at network hospitals and diagnostic centres and discounts at certain network hospitals approved by Green Delta Insurance.

Robi’s Executive Vice President (sales operation and digital channel) Muhammad Mehedi Hasan, General Manager (distribution and capability development) Md Istiak Karim, Green Delta’s Head of Digital Business Md Moniruzzaman Khan and other senior officials from both the organisations were also present on the occasion.
