HCL is #poisedinpink to help combat breast cancer
Worldwide, October is the month in which Breast Cancer Awareness is observed. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and is the most common cause of cancer death in women worldwide.
In United States of America, it is estimated that in 2018 there were 21 million diagnoses of all types of cancers in men and women, out of which 23.8% (2.34 million) female patients were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer alone.
"Adequate awareness about breast cancer and its preventive measures can help us take necessary steps for avoiding this disease and seeking timely, appropriate help to minimize harms in case of an actual disease," says HCL.
To support the campaign, HCL employees across multiple workplace locations dress in pink and share photos of their efforts on social media as well as in an online 'Flaunt Pink Moments' gallery.
