Apon operates shop inside and outside factory, selling food and other disposables to workers at a slight discount. In partnership with consumer goods manufacturing companies these wares cost the workers upto 10% less than at retail outside the factory. Each purchase from the shop earns a worker points that accumulate on her Apon account. For every 100 Bangladeshi taka (about $1.25) spent, the worker earns 1 Apon point. With 200 points, the worker gains access to zero-cash health coverage, allowing her to get free medical diagnoses and prescriptions from a doctor, maternity, hospitalization and life coverage.
