Safety & Health

At Mundra UMPP, Safety has been adopted as a core value rather than a simple priority. Mundra Thermal Plant is committed to ensuring zero harm to its employees, contractors and the communities in which it operates. This is integral to the Company's business processes and it is focusing on continual improvement in the areas of health and safety across its operations. Some of the safety initiatives are listed below:

Safety and security best practices were created keeping in mind the demands of all levels of workforce and were incorporated from the start of the construction phase of the project. This has been further supplemented through proper implementation of focused safety initiatives.
Employees start their day by taking the Safety Pledge.
"No Supervision, No work" policy.
"Khushboo Suraksha ki" programmes through AAKAR (NGO) which conducts group discussions, safety skits, screening of safety feature films etc.
Safety Intervention Audit Team (SIAT) comprising of 10 members from different line functions led by a senior Mundra Thermal Plant manager who conducts area-wise audits daily.
