TAKING STEPS TO SUSTAINABILITY
Our Chairman, Mr. Shashi Kiran Shetty, is a signatory to the World Economic Forum’s statement of support – a pact between the Forum of Supply Chain & Transport CEO community to reduce emissions by aggregating green demand to hasten the achievement of net-zero transition
On digital platforms for some countries, carbon emissions for each transaction of the ocean, rail, or air freight, are displayed, so shippers can take conscious, informed decisions to minimize environmental impact
Process Improvement study conducted to roll out better business behavior practices that encourage and enable the use of software to save soft documents for reading, signing, and keeping for posterity purposes
Work from home policies implemented since the COVID-19 outbreak have been retained at some of our offices, reducing employees’ commute and consequently carbon emissions to that extent
Across warehouses and facilities, sustainable measures like rainwater harvesting, wastewater management, use of solar panels, etc. are integrated during the construction stage
Tie-ups with vendors to recycle materials like paper, printer cartridges, cartons, cardboard boxes, and other items used in daily business
‘Turn Off’ policy – urges team members to turn off electricity- consuming devices during lunchtime and at end of the day to reduce electricity consumption
