In an effort to curtail COVID-19, Meezan Bank has imposed a policy for all its employees: either wear masks or donate cash. This donation will then be transferred to Ihsan Trust’s account, which distributes ration to people whose livelihoods have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The “Mask” policy will be ensured through physical checks, as well as keeping an eye via CCTV. The rule will be implemented on April 20 at the head office, and April 21 for all other branches.
Details of Meezan Bank’s Mask Policy
On first violation, teaboys, riders, and staff will pay Rs 1,000; area managers will pay Rs 2,000; assistant vice presidents and vice presidents will pay Rs 5,000; senior vice presidents and executive vice presidents will pay Rs 15,000; senior executive vice presidents will pay Rs 20,000; and president and CEOs will pay Rs 50,000.
On the second violation, teaboys, riders, and staff will pay Rs 12,000; area managers will pay Rs 4,000; assistant vice presidents and vice presidents will pay Rs 10,000; senior vice presidents and executive vice presidents will pay Rs 30,000; senior executive vice presidents will pay Rs 40,000; and president and CEOs will pay Rs 100,000.
In the case of a third violation, Meezan Bank said strict disciplinary action will be taken.
Why was it necessary to impose strict cash penalties?
According to Deputy CEO Ariful Islam, while they have issued guidelines in the past, the implementation is not as strong as it should be.
“We have issued various instructions and guidelines to staff from time to time on the precautions that must be adopted to ensure that the virus does not spread. Unfortunately, despite our best efforts it has been observed that staff at all levels are not following these instructions.”
Meezan Bank’s step to ask employees to wear masks or donate cash is a good way to curtail the spreading of COVID-19, as currency can spread the virus if someone who is infected uses it. Many of the cases are asymptomatic, and do not even know that they have COVID-19. We wish that people stay safe and happy during this dire situation.
