HUMAN CAPITAL
We are a people-first organisation and we make every effort to provide our employees with an open, inclusive and dynamic work environment which is conducive to their career growth. We continuously invest in talent development and capacity-building programmes that drive employee engagement and improved performance.
Learning and development is a key differentiator for the Company. As workplaces and businesses evolve, it becomes imperative for companies to develop employee skills and capabilities to respond to emerging trends and opportunities. We have a wide range of learning and development approaches to develop our people. These include on-the-job learning; mentoring and coaching; classroom training workshops; peer circles; and digital/ mobile learning.
Deepak Group has a comprehensive Rewards & Recognitions (R&R) framework in place which is designed to enhance employee morale and engagement by recognising and rewarding individuals, teams and managers who rise above and beyond expectations from their roles, contribute beyond their job description and continually deliver excellence. The framework applies to all personnel, directly employed with Deepak Group and are on-rolls, across locations and functions.
These exemplary awards underpin our organisational values viz. Integrity, Empathy (ownership/responsiveness), Collaboration/Teamwork, Agility and Innovativeness as well as our inclusive work culture and employee development capabilities. The awards were presented by the Chairman in a ceremony organised for the Group and are listed as under:
Diversity and inclusion is of utmost importance to us. We are an equal opportunity employer when it comes to attracting, retaining and developing new talent. It enables us to foster a respectful and inclusive workplace for our colleagues, embrace diverse perspectives and drive innovation and engagement with our communities. We also provided certification training to the Prevention of Sexual Harassment Committee (POSH) Committee during the year to promote a safe and healthy work environment for female employees.
We have identified 5 pillars along with the top management to promote D&I across the Deepak Group which include:
In an effort to encourage employees to transit from fossil fuel-based vehicles to Electric Vehicles and thereby contribute to reducing the Company’s carbon footprint, we have commenced an innovative programme.
We provide a subsidy to employees upon purchasing electric vehicles (two-wheelers or four-wheelers).
We believe that motivated employees are key to the success of the organisation. Regular employee engagement programmes are conducted to ensure strong bonding between the employees and the Company. Understanding engagement status and initiating need-based actions to enhance engagement continues to be our prime focus.
In FY 2022-23, we launched the Group-wide employee engagement survey ‘Project Aikyam’ in partnership with the Great Place to Work Institute.
