Banglalink on Saturday kicked off its annual Safety and Wellness Week 2025 with a vibrant walkathon held simultaneously in Dhaka, Chattogram, Khulna, and Bogura.
More than 560 employees took part in the event, demonstrating a shared commitment to health, safety, and overall well-being, a company media statement said on Sunday.
This year’s theme, “Strength in Action, Care in Every Step,” reflects Banglalink’s focus on fostering a people-centered workplace.
The theme highlights a culture where mindful habits, daily actions, and genuine care guide how employees engage with their work, support their colleagues, and nurture their personal wellness.
Throughout the week, employees will take part in a series of activities designed to promote holistic well-being. These include health screenings, one-on-one consultations, fire safety awareness sessions, live safety drills, mindfulness classes, stress management activities, and a number of interactive wellness engagements.
Each initiative has been thoughtfully designed to inspire healthier routines, reinforce essential safety practices, and encourage a balanced and mindful lifestyle.
The Walkathon began early in the morning with Dhaka participants starting from Banglalink’s headquarters, Tiger’s Den, while teams from other regions set off from their respective office locations. As employees walked their designated routes, the event served as a powerful reminder that well-being often begins with small and intentional steps.
Chief Executive Officer Johan Buse and members of the leadership team formally inaugurated Safety and Wellness Week 2025 at Tiger’s Den. Their presence reaffirmed Banglalink’s commitment to cultivating a safe, caring, and supportive work environment.
Ruhul Quader, Chief Human Resources and Administration Officer (Acting) at Banglalink, said, “The walkathon gives this week a purposeful start. It reminds us that safety and wellness are not occasional priorities but everyday habits we build together. When employee feel supported to look after their health, the entire organization becomes stronger. This week strengthens that spirit by encouraging us to care for ourselves, look out for one another, and create a workplace where well-being is a natural part of how we move forward as a team.”
The company is also committed to the safety and well-being of its customers.
After the recent 5.7 earthquake, Banglalink immediately offered two hours of free calling to help people connect with their loved ones.
