The World Business Council for Sustainable Development defines CSR as “�the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and society at large.�
We, at Godfrey Phillips India not only recognize the importance of being a responsible corporate citizen but our identity as a cigarette manufacturing Company and our success in it imposes even a greater responsibility upon us to take it further. Being cognizant of this fact, we strive to be active and committed participants in enhancing the community we work, live and do business in.
Besides strong internal responsible marketing policies that govern all our actions, we have undertaken several initiatives like Godfrey Phillips Bravery Awards, Blood Donation Drive, Women Empowerment projects,
Godfrey Phillips WHITE, various GAP (Good Agricultural Practices) and support programs for tobacco farmers, environmental management besides many philanthropic and charitable gestures which is a part of the Company culture.
The second initiative � Women Empowerment Project is aimed at making women economically self-sufficient and independent by providing them with vocational skills and training. This drive will help promote gender equality and redress power imbalances. Reputed NGO’s like Charities Aids Foundation, Navjyoti, Vidya and others have joined hands with Godfrey Phillips India in this endeavour.
