Corporate Social Responsibility
In addition to annual donations to various local charities in Iraq, the company has set up a
training center that
teaches newly graduated electrical engineers on installation, commissioning, and testing of CCTV
security and network
systems. Every week a batch of engineers learn about the industry and become more qualified to
start their small
businesses or work as technicians in the field.
Most new hires in Al-Aswar Trading Group are electrical engineers and recent graduates. This
ensures a supply of fresh
ideas in the company as well as providing a stepping stone for those without work experience.
