Botswana Life Contributes To Security Of Botswana’s Workforce
The Botswana Life Insurance Limited has once again displayed its commitment to growing further with Batswana. Last week, the leading life insurer donated a total of P200,000.00 to the Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) and the National Amalgamated Central, Local and Parastatals Manual Workers’ Union (Amalgamated Workers Union) respectively. Each union received P100,000.00 to continue their efforts in ensuring the positive welfare of Botswana’s workforce.
Botswana Life chief executive officer, Ronald Samuels said they recognise that organisations such as unions form the cornerstone of the society by assisting in setting quality standards for “our Nation’s labour force”.
“As a business, we admire their sustained and steadfast efforts in ensuring the corroborative wellbeing of Batswana,” Samuels said. “It is through our joint efforts as leading institutions that we are able to fulfill our promise of providing financial solutions that make a positive difference in the lives of Batswana, all while driving the socio-economic prosperity in Botswana.”
Botswana Life’s partnership with
BOPEU has been in place since 2015. Together, the organisations have set out to ensure the long-term security and wellbeing of Botswana’s public workforce. On the other hand, the National Amalgamated Workers Union partnership is a more recent union with Botswana Life – having begun in 2019. However, the institutions remain aligned in their efforts of protecting all of Botswana’s workforce. They also recognise that all should be included and benefit from the country’s development and socio-economic growth.
“Our strength as a business lies in our ability to partner with institutions who have stood out and shown themselves to be pillars of growth in our Nation by continuously placing the needs of Batswana at the centre of all that they do,” Samuels said. “As Botswana Life, we pride ourselves in our ability to support our clients through Life and more.
Despite the many challenges we have faced while adapting to the new normal, Botswana Life’s resolve to providing long-term security to Batswana has only been strengthened.
We are more committed than ever in leaving a footprint and creating lasting legacies for our colleagues, customers and community.”
