In collaboration with leading eye-care provider, Shankar Nethralaya – at their state-of-the-art PP
woven bag manufacturing unit located at Nimpura in Kharagpur in East Midnapore district. Fogla
Foundation joined hands with Bhagirathi Packaging Pvt Ltd to conduct the health care
programme for its valuable employees.  
 
Always in the forefront of ushering in social and economic development of the weaker sections of
society by providing them a better life, Fogla Corp considers it their prime responsibility to give
back to the community a part of what they have contributed to the growth of the company. Fogla
Corp has founded Fogla Foundation to ensure improved focus on public and employee welfare
initiatives with dedicated staff and developmental activities conducted throughout the year at
several of its plants and the surrounding local areas.
 
Fogla Corp cares a lot for the good health and well-being of employees and their families. As a
leading PP woven bag manufacturer with a growing presence in the global market, Fogla Corp
realises this success has been made possible by its thousands of committed employees. Being a
company with a fantastic vision for the transformation of our society, it also pays proper attention

to the vision of their employees. An initiative like free eye testing camp suggests that the health of
employees remains a prime concern for Fogla Corp and it comes up with frequent health-based
initiatives to ensure employee fitness for work. This is the best way to prevent accidents, ensure
worker safety, and create a positive outlook for employees who feel convinced about the humane
side of the company they work for. Besides, this boosts their confidence and motivates them to
give their best in terms of output.
 
Employees of Fogla Corp were glad to get the opportunity for eye testing at their manufacturing
unit. It meant they did not have to venture out – waste time going out to consult an
ophthalmologist for an eye check-up. It is true that many employees do not manage to get the
time to go for eye testing or they do not want to spend money on it. Many employees feel
discouraged to seek health check-up and keep ignoring their health problems until the condition
worsens. This eye testing camp enabled all its employees to know whether they suffered from
faulty vision and then proceed with measures to correct it. It was also a good opportunity for
bespectacled employees who have not gone for eye testing for years.
 
Since the work at the PP woven bag manufacturing unit requires good vision and the employees
need to work long hours at the plant, neglect of eyes often proves fatal. Symptoms or warning
signals like a headache or difficulty to see things clearly should not be ignored. Many people do
not wear corrective lenses as they do not know they suffer from faulty vision. Therefore, an eye
check-up for old and young employees is important every six months. Early detection of vision-
related problems prevents severe complications. Several hundreds of employees benefited from
this eye testing camp. Fogla Corp reaches out to their employees and addresses their health
issues from time to time.
