The Environment Policy encourages the Company to conserve resources, reduce environmental impact and seeks to enhance the awareness among employees and make business decision aiding sustainability. The division/joint ventures have developed their own policies by taking essence from the Company policy. However, the policy on RSCM has environment protection as one of its criteria applicable to all its vendors, contractors and service providers."
