The emergency services helpline number 7669300300 will ensure immediate help is provided to all IOCians and their familymembers pan-India with minimum response time. Mr Mohapatra appreciated the initiative and said it would go a long way inhelping IOCians and their families if any emergency were to arise. He also trailed the initiative first-hand by dialing the helplinefrom his registered mobile number.
Upon calling the helpline number, the identification of the employee shall be based on their employee number or registeredmobile number. There are nodal officers mapped for each employee, who will extend immediate help during distress. In additionto the nodal officers, there are State coordinators for extending help during emergencies. In the eventuality of both nodal officer& State coordinators being unreachable, the call will automatically call get diverted to the shift officer at Marketing Division HO.
Mr Mohapatra also launched PARIVAR (Passbook of All Resources Investments Valuables Assets and necessary Records) whichwill be a personal information organizer for employees. The initiative has been developed keeping in mind anyunforeseen/exigency circumstances an IOCian could face. PARIVAR will have all necessary information stored at one place andcan be passed on to the employee concerned/family member of the employee. In a time where critical information/details arestored digitally and protected with passwords, this initiative will act as a ready reckoner of all important financial, legal, estateplanning, personal documents and accounts.
