My Part- Suggestions/Initiatives

• Revise Mission Statement: “To become India’s most admired company by doing its best to sustain a healthy and prosperous environment and to improve the quality of life of the people of the area in which it operates”

• Increase CSR budget to 4% of Net Profits from the current 0.5%• Top- down Approach:

– Partner with CSR units of other companies and work out a common action plan

– Ensure that all suppliers to BHEL follow environmental, occupational, health & safety norms

• Incentivize CSR for Employees: Implement ‘Special Payout Plan’ based on weekend-hours devoted by employees on BHEL’s CSR projects. Special Awards to be given to employees who are most active in the CSR field.


My Part- Suggestions/Initiatives• Initiate Bottom- up Approach to CSR:

1. Source information about specific needs in an area from

employees and residents around BHEL plants

2. Let the employees and other stakeholders

formulate a plan of action (Co-plan)

3. Form volunteer groups and provide resources to get the

plan executed

4. Monitor, control and assess the work

5. Plan to accommodate 2-3 such projects for each BHEL unit


My Part- Suggestions/Initiatives

• The temporary medical camps at few places to be transformed into permanent medical centers

• Set up a Teacher training institute at Tiruchirappalli in South and Bhopal in the North

• Focus on forming Self Help Groups and not just philanthropy for community development

• Develop a scale to measure CSR impact of BHEL based on:– Measuring health, safety and opportunities for workers including workplace

injury and illness rates, greenhouse gas emissions, total energy use.– impact of company's operations on the environment and communities

• Initiate regular audits and release of Annual CSR Report quantifying the impact of each year’s CSR activities as an initiative towards CSR communication
