The Multan Electric Power Company (MEPCO) has approved an additional advance pay increment for 24 employees who have memorised the Holy Quran.
The decision recognises their religious achievement and aims to encourage employees across the organisation. MEPCO has also issued an official notification confirming the approval.
Chief Executive Officer Engineer Gul Muhammad Zahid and Chief HR and Career Planning Officer Mian Muhammad Sohail Afzal approved the decision.
Extra Increment to Take Effect From November 2025
According to the notification, each eligible employee will receive a one-time advance increment within their existing basic pay scale.
The benefit will take effect from November 1, 2025. It will cover employees working in Operations, Grid System Operations (GSO), Material Management and other departments.
The approved list includes employees from MEPCO’s Sahiwal, Multan, Vehari, Muzaffargarh, Bahawalpur and Rahim Yar Khan circles.
Who Will Receive the Additional Increment?
The 24 beneficiaries include Abdul Malik, Muhammad Ahsan Mohsin, Tajammul Hussain and Muhammad Naeem Ashraf from Sahiwal Operations Circle.
Other recipients include Muhammad Zeeshan Mukhtar, Muhammad Saeed, Zeeshan Ahmad Khan, Fazal Karim and Muhammad Ateeq from Sahiwal GSO Circle.
Employees from Multan, Vehari, Muzaffargarh and Bahawalpur operations circles will also receive the benefit. The list further includes staff members from MEPCO headquarters and Rahim Yar Khan.
Certificate Required to Qualify
MEPCO has made an authentic Hifz-e-Quran certificate mandatory for eligibility.
Employees must hold a certificate issued by a seminary recognised by the Government of Pakistan or an institution registered with the relevant board.
The company introduced this benefit to recognise employees who have memorised the Holy Quran. The one-time increment will be added to their existing basic pay rather than treated as a separate recurring allowance.
