{KN}The main objective of a public sector organisation, such as a state hospital, is to provide essential services for the welfare of society rather than to make a profit.
{APP}For example,a government hospital in Pakistan aims to offer affordable or free healthcare to all citizens, especially those who cannot afford private treatment. Its focus is on improving public health, saving lives, and ensuring equal access to medical care.Unlike private hospitals that aim to maximise profits,a state hospital’s success is measured by service quality, patient satisfaction, and health outcomes.
{AN}By prioritising social welfare over profit, the government ensures that healthcare remains accessible, helping to reduce inequality and improve the overall well-being and productivity of the population.

There main objective is to meet public needs by ensuring that people get essential health services, regardless if they can pay or not
for example state run hospital focuses on providing vaccination or emergency treatments
this helps people to protect them against diseases which maintains a healthy population, which also means healthier workforce who can work more meaning increase in productivity and efficiency

Knowledge Point:
The main aim of a public sector organisation, like a state hospital, is to provide important public services to help people, rather than to earn profit. or to provide essential services to the public rather than to earn profit.

Application:
For example, the National Health Service in the UK focuses on giving free medical treatment and emergency care to everyone, no matter their income.

Analysis:
This makes sure people stay healthy and can keep working or studying, which benefits the whole society. As more citizens trust and depend on these services, the government’s reputation improves. In the long term, this helps create a fair and stable community where public needs come before profit.

[KN]the best objective would be to help the people who struggle throw natural disasters.
[APP]for instance in pakistan due to floods the government helped the flood reliefs with food, water, and even Doctors to help people heal their wounds or to get relief from any diseases or allergies.
[AN]thus this lead to in helping a thousands of people to live their life again and stay healthy and safe under their shelters rather then those hospitals or governments who don't care about the people dying in the natural disasters.

(KN) One main objective of a public sector organization could be to provide essential services.
(APP) For example, a state hospital's main objective could be to keep the citizens of country A healthy and to provide them with treatment for a very low price or not charging them at all.
(AN) This would lead to lower rates of absenteeism as most people of the country would be healthy and since little to no price is charged, it means almost everyone can afford to have their treatment done. The lower rates of absenteeism would mean businesses would become a lot more efficient, proving to play a major role in increasing the GDP of the country.
