BOK opens day care centre at Peshawar head office

PESHAWAR: The Bank of Khyber (BOK) has become the first financial institution in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa to open day care centre for employees at its head office in Peshawar. Child care has long been a critical issue for working parents and is not gender-specific. Being an equal employment opportunity provider, BOK is catering to the modern-day needs of working women and men who being professionals, need to care for their children while also carrying out their official responsibilities. The day care centre was inaugurated by BOK Managing Director and CEO Saiful Islam on January 11, 2019. Speaking on the occasion, he highlighted the importance of the needs of modern working men and women and renewed his commitment towards providing best available facilities to BOK employees. He further stated that opening a child care facility within the premises of head office, where working parents can be steps away from their children, would ease the strain of Juggling work and family. The centre will provide supervision and care for infants and young children during office hours, ensuring that parents can focus better on their work.
