Occupational health and safety

We give utmost importance to safety and well-being of our stakeholders and focus on a Zero Harm culture across business operations. the safety and well-being of our people are among our first and foremost priorities. We assess various risks such as workplace risks, fire risks, road safety, ergonomics, machinery risk, occupational health, chemical risks during material handling, and monitor our safety performance. Our approach includes undertaking risk assessment and having an on-site emergency plan at offices and facilities. A proactive rather than reactive approach to safety concerns helps us provide safe, enabling workplaces.

Community development

We believe in community development that’s inclusive and impactful. Giving back has been a way of life for us, long before it became a corporate mandate. We’ve identified and leveraged opportunities to help, heal, and have a positive impact on people’s lives, by involving them in the process too. Multiple initiatives across six focus areas – Education, Environment, Health, Women Empowerment, Disaster Relief and Sports – drive our CSR activities, which are aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and also Indian initiatives like Swachch Bharat, Digital India, Skill India, etc. The core philosophy of our CSR activities is to create a positive social and economic impact on the community by promoting well-being and hygiene, empowering aspirations, offering relief in times of disasters and calamities, supporting rising stars in sports, protecting the environment, and unleashing ambitions through education.

Labour practice and human rights

We strive for a conducive work environment that empowers our team members to do their best and achieve great success. Our policies and benefits encompass learning and development, fair and non-biased performance management, healthcare, wellness, retirement, and parental leaves to ensure a high quality of life for our employees. Striking the right balance between hiring the right people, discovering talent internally, and implementing a holistic Talent Management System, we are able to groom leaders of the future, retain promising employees, and give them access to global growth opportunities. Our zero-tolerance policy ensures that there is no room for human rights violations or discrimination and helps prevent instances of child labour or forced labour across the value chain.

Diversity and inclusion

We are committed to changing the perception of the logistics and supply chain industry as being a male-dominated one with lower women workforce. Women bring unique life experiences that can enrich the professional ecosystem, and we are proud that at ECU Worldwide, our wholly-owned global subsidiary, women comprise over 50% of our team members. Through our group-wide RESTART Back to Work program, we are also making it easier for women who have taken a break from their careers to return to work. We believe in the power of an inclusive workplace environment that celebrates and respects the unique perspectives, backgrounds, and abilities of our employees across the globe. Additionally, our Board Diversity policy serves as a guiding framework to bring in a diverse mixture of skills, industry knowledge, experience, age, tenure, gender, and diversity of thought.
