Tata Steel takes leap to boost gender diversity

03 Apr 2019 Evaluate

Tata Steel has opened up two shifts at its Jamshedpur steel plant shopfloor for women employees between 6:00 am and 10:00 pm. Starting April 1, 2019, Tata Steel has deployed 52 female employees at its Coke Plant and Electrical Repair Shopfloor in Shifts A & B between 6:00 am and 10:00 pm through the week.

This is also the first major step taken by Tata Steel towards its plans to have women constitute 10% of its workforce on the shopfloor by 2025 and to create more avenues for women to grow in the technical/ manufacturing domain.  The new initiative to include women in the shopfloor follows the 2017 guidelines prescribed by the Government of Jharkhand that allows women to work in some shifts, provided adequate safety measures are put in place by employers.

Tata Steel, the flagship company of the Tata group is the first integrated steel plant in Asia and is now the world’s second most geographically diversified steel producer and a Fortune 500 company.
