Jubilee Life Insurance, Pakistan’s largest private sector insurance company, has taken a significant step towards diversity, equity, and inclusivity (DEI) by signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with NOWPDP (Network of Organizations Working for People with Disabilities), Pakistan. This strategic alliance reinforces Jubilee Life’s commitment to a robust DEI strategy, with a focus on recruiting persons with disabilities (PWDs) for various roles across the organization.
Identifying specific positions to be filled by PWDs over the coming year, Jubilee Life’s practical approach aligns with its DEI goals. NOWPDP, known for its impactful disability inclusion initiatives in identity, welfare, education, skill-building, and economic empowerment, becomes an ideal partner for this endeavor.
Javed Ahmed, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer of Jubilee Life Insurance, emphasized the business necessity of embracing diversity and inclusion: “By hiring PWDs, we are not only diversifying our talent pool but also enriching our organizational culture and enhancing our business potential.”
At the signing ceremony, Omair Ahmed, CEO of NOWPDP, expressed optimism for the partnership: “Our collaboration with Jubilee Life is a demonstration of their dedication towards an inclusive and diverse workforce. Together, we aim to break barriers and create meaningful employment opportunities for persons with disabilities.”
This partnership underscores a shared vision between Jubilee Life and NOWPDP, focusing on creating more inclusive employment opportunities and fostering a supportive work environment for PWDs.
