A new HESCO daycare centre has opened at Power Wing Colony in Hyderabad to look after the children of the company’s women employees during working hours. HESCO Chief Executive Officer Faizullah Dahri formally inaugurated the facility and launched its operations, in a small step for workplace facilities inside a public power utility.
The centre occupies a flat on the first floor at Power Wing Colony. It will care for children aged six months to five years, with separate sleeping arrangements, a dedicated play area and a study space. HESCO has appointed five staff members to care for the children and supervise daily activities. The facility was planned under directives from the Ministry of Energy, and it is intended to let women employees work without worrying about childcare during office hours.
The opening was reported on Tuesday 3 November, following an inauguration on Monday 2 November. That timing matters for readers in Hyderabad, because the centre is already operating, not merely announced. Women employees who need the service can use it now, during their working hours, rather than waiting for a future launch.
Why a HESCO daycare centre matters inside a power company
Power distribution companies are not office-only employers. Their staff work in billing, customer service, grid stations, field complaints and administrative offices, often on fixed shifts. For women employees with young children, the working day creates a practical problem that has little to do with ability or commitment: who looks after a child aged under five while the mother is at work.
Private childcare in Hyderabad exists, but it costs money, it may be far from the workplace, and its hours may not match office timings. A workplace centre removes the travel between home, childcare and office, and it keeps the child close during the day. HESCO’s own managers made that point at the inauguration. Dahri said the centre would help women employees focus on their professional duties while remaining confident about their children’s care and safety. General Manager (Development) PMU Farah Diba said reliable childcare during office hours would reassure working mothers and help them concentrate on their responsibilities.
Director General (HR and Administration) Shafique Ahmed Memon said the centre’s main purpose was to support HESCO’s female workforce and ensure proper care for their children. Dahri praised Manager (TMP) Pashmina Shaikh for establishing the centre and bringing it into operation. Chief Technical Officer Tufail Mirbahar, Chief Law Officer Tanveer Abdullah and other officials attended the inauguration.
Planned three years ago, opened now
A company spokesperson said the project was first planned nearly three years ago under Ministry of Energy directives. The gap between planning and opening is worth noting, because it shows how slowly a simple welfare facility can move inside a large public utility. The idea did not need new technology or a large building. It needed a flat, five staff members, sleeping and play areas, and a decision to proceed.
That delay is not unusual in public sector organisations, where approvals, budgets and competing priorities can hold up small projects for years. But for the women employees who waited, the delay was personal. A child who was six months old when the project was planned is now three years old. The centre will still help, but the benefit arrives later than it should have. HESCO has not explained the reasons for the delay in the reports available so far, and readers should not assume a single cause.
The daycare opening comes alongside other Sindh news, including the Sindh Diwali holiday, the Sindh irrigation audit, the Sindh World Bank portfolio review, and the winter water shortage warning.
