Beyond coal production, NCL has also launched a first aid training programme for homemakers to promote safety and preparedness within its workforce’s families. “Launched on January 26, the First Aid Training Program for Homemakers, in just one month, has trained about 1,500 homemakers in different sessions held at all projects,” the company stated.

By extending first aid awareness beyond the workplace, NCL aims to foster a primary-care-conscious community, reinforcing a culture of safety and preparedness.
