“Cakes are special. Every birthday, every celebration ends with something sweet, a cake, and people remember. It’s all about the memories.” Buddy Valastro

Birthdays are a celebration of your life. They mark another year in your life story. So, what better can be than celebrating the birthday of our employees, making them feel special and valued by their IBEX Family. HRBP team – LHR came up with this bright idea of employee engagement & left no stone unturned in making this event possible. On May 18, 2017, a small get together was organized at Lahore office where all the Taurus & Gemini celebrating their birthdays gathered together for a combined Birthday Celebration. The event kicked off with cheerful giggles and selfie sessions of the attendees. Birthday stars were cheerfully taking solo and group pictures with the birthday back drop and birthday caps, sharing cheerful moments with each other and creating ever lasting memories. HRBP team also arranged a customized cake especially designed for this event, which was cut in the presence of guests and fellow employees. A special samosa party was also organized for all, accompanied with tea. Hashim Khan – Director Operations, Waqas Mehr – Manager Operations, Ammar Liaq Khan– AM Operations, Tahreem Fatima – AM Operations, Syed Ahmed Javaid - Asst. Manager Operations , Ahmed Mujtaba – HR Business Leader & Fatima Khawaja – HR Business Analyst along with other team members of the IBEX Family were there to meet, greet & wish the celebrating employees. In order, to make things more special for birthday employees, they were presented personalized birthday cards with wishes from their Managers and Operations Director – Hashim Khan. This initiative created a positive vibe on the floor and casted an ever lasting impression in the hearts of employees. They really appreciated this effort and shown an expectation for such similar initiatives in the future as well. Feedback from Celebrating Employees:
