As part of World Diabetes Day, Santa Farma organized events aimed at raising diabetes awareness among its employees in collaboration with the Turkish Diabetes Association. Following blood sugar screenings conducted with the message ‘Recognize Diabetes, Win Life’, informative seminars were held with the participation of expert physicians.
Operating in the healthcare sector for over 80 years with the principle of 'sensitivity to human life,' Santa Farma Pharmaceuticals continues to pioneer projects that reinforce healthy living awareness for both its employees and society. By making a donation to the Turkish Diabetes Association on behalf of its employees, Santa Farma contributed to raising diabetes awareness not only within the organization but also across the wider public.
Drawing attention to the impact of diabetes, a disease affecting millions globally, on human health, Santa Farma Pharmaceuticals organized events at its headquarters and manufacturing facility, driven by its commitment to supporting employee well-being alongside contributing to public health. During the activities held for November 14 World Diabetes Day, employees underwent blood sugar screenings to gain awareness of their personal health status. Additionally, an informative seminar featuring expert physicians from the Turkish Diabetes Association was held to discuss the causes, symptoms, and prevention methods of diabetes, as well as its impact on cardiovascular health.
Bahar Velioğlu, Corporate Communications and Brand Manager at Santa Farma Pharmaceuticals, stated the following:
"Diabetes is not just an individual disease; it is a significant public health issue that affects quality of life, productivity, and societal health. As Santa Farma, we organize such events to increase the health awareness of our employees and to emphasize the importance of early diagnosis. We believe that healthy individuals create healthy organizations, and consequently, a stronger society."
