Our Service Delivery Point in Wathupitiwela conducted a medical camp at the BRANDIX factory located at the EPZ on the 3rd of November 2021. Many women working in the Zones cannot benefit from traditional home visits made by Health Assistants. Due to their inability to visit the government clinics due to work commitments, many women needing services cannot access regular clinics during working hours. Most of the employees are also living away from their homes, in boarded facilities.
FPA Sri Lanka's Workplace Service Delivery programme, particularly in the Industrial Zones, is designed to address the needs of this key group of young men and women engaged in work at their convenience. We appreciate the employers who prioritize the health of their employees and enable such clinics to take place.
