Community Initiative:
As a socially responsible employer, the Kalyani Group has a strong sense of community responsibility, and encourages its businesses to enhance their relationships with the communities in which they operate.
Bharat Forge Ltd., sponsors community centres for 250 families in and around Pune. Of these, 80 employee families are involved in income-generating activities such as hand-glove stitching, stitching uniforms and making of incense sticks. After vocational training these members then use financial assistance from self help groups (SHGs) to start their own small businesses. BFL is involved in developing micro credit savings groups within these families. The company continues to remain engaged with the members for any assistance that newly formed ventures may need. In addition, BFL also conducts awareness activities vocational training, personality camps and socio-cultural activities for these families, which are greatly appreciated by them.
The staff at Bharat Forge America, also engage themselves in community services in the local Lansing community.
