Sindh Insurance Limited, under the Government of Sindh’s Workers Welfare Board initiative, offers Accidental Health Takaful, providing registered workers with free annual medical coverage of up to Rs. 700,000 for accidental injuries. This program enables access to cashless treatment at over 250 hospitals nationwide, covering accidental hospitalization, surgeries, prosthetics, and rehabilitation to support worker safety and wellbeing.
Eligible workers include those employed in industrial establishments or industries for hire or reward, whether directly or through contractors, with both expressed and implied employment terms. Seasonal workers in factories or commercial establishments within Sindh also qualify. Industries covered include textile, cement, sugar, fertilizer, engineering, power generation, construction, food and leather, printing, wood and furniture, mining and quarrying, natural gas or oilfield, tea and coffee cultivation, telecommunication, hospitals, banking and financial institutions (excluding the State Bank of Pakistan), and any government-notified organizations.
Workers aged 18 to 60 of all genders are eligible to register for this benefit. To apply for the Worker Welfare Card and access this comprehensive accidental health coverage, individuals can visit the official websites wwbs.gos.pk or sindhinsuranceltd.com. This initiative reinforces Sindh’s commitment to protecting workers by ensuring essential medical support in case of accidents without any financial burden.
