Qatar Insurance Group (QIC Group) has hosted the ‘Little Employee Initiative’, welcoming 58 staff children, aged 7 to 15, to the workplace for a day filled with engaging and educational activities.
The fourth edition of ‘Little Employee Initiative’ is a collaborative effort with the Qatar Career Development Centre (QCDC), founded by Qatar Foundation (QF). The programme continues to empower young minds by exposing them to various professional fields, thereby sparking their interest in future careers and instilling a sense of responsibility and work ethic.
The activities were designed to provide the young visitors with a glimpse into the daily operations of the staff at QIC, fostering a greater understanding of insurance and appreciation for the work among families, while also offering a unique and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
Throughout the day, children were guided on educational tours to learn about the work of different departments, engaged in creative activities, and spent time with their parents or relatives to understand their roles better. The day concluded with each child receiving a certificate, commemorating their participation and learning experience.
Rashid al-Buainain, QIC Group chief administrative officer, said: “The ‘Little Employee Initiative’ is a fantastic opportunity for our young visitors to gain insight into the insurance industry and appreciate the hard work and dedication of our staff.
“We believe that such initiatives are vital in nurturing a sense of curiosity and ambition among the younger generation. It was wonderful to see the joy and enthusiasm on the faces of the children as they learned about the various aspects of our business.”
He added: “We thank QCDC for their incredible efforts and support. Qatar Insurance Group remains committed to fostering educational and developmental opportunities for the youth, ensuring that they are well-prepared for their future careers. The ‘Little Employee Initiative’ exemplifies this commitment, providing a platform for children to explore and understand the professional world in an engaging and supportive environment.”
