All Units are provided with occupational health centres with adequate medical staff to monitor occupational health and provide immediate relief, when required. In addition, at least 2% of total employees in each Unit are trained to provide first aid.

In 2011-12, 12,812 employees underwent preventive medical examinations, to identify symptoms of any occupational illness and there were no occupation related illnesses reported from Units.
