Transcending cultural and ethnic barriers, our vast and varied workforce of over 14,912 skilled professionals, speaks only one language - that of attaining common goals. At all our projects, this team spirit among workers has contributed to precise co-ordination, motivation and enthusiasm. The dynamic synergy of this global resource has been the primary catalyst in the Group’s emergence as a premier engineering, procurement and construction player in the world.
We are a people-driven enterprise. Our innovative and diverse workforce has the will to take on challenges and see them through. Be it the scorching desert sun, the fierce monsoons or temperatures ranging from -50° celsius to +50° Celsius, our people have braved it all and brought accolades to the Company.
With diverse projects spread all over the world, our engineers have generated multi-disciplinary skills and a wide range of experience in project management and execution. The company integrates and trains local workforce with managers from India. In Kazakhstan, the Indian workforce learnt the local language on the job, hence bringing in a feeling of camaraderie with their fellow Kazakh workers. While the workforce comprised 85 per cent Kazakhs and 15 per cent Indians, both shared a strong bonding and even enjoy Indian meals together. Along with Kazakhs and Indians, Americans, British and Turkish manpower were also employed at the site. In the Baku Tbilisi Ceyhan (BTC), Georgia and South Caucasian pipeline, 70 per cent of workforce were Georgian nationals and the rest of the skilled manpower were Azeri, American, Bolivian, British, German, Indonesian, Indian, Italian, Kiwi and Turkish. In BTC Turkey, there were 2450 personnel from 10 countries.
Our Pipeline project in Oman had a unique environment, diverse people and varied landscapes. According to the company practice, Omanis were hired as Community Relations Officers. Also Omani drivers, unskilled, semi-skilled and skilled workers were hired to carry out activities on the pipeline such as stringing, welding etc. Business opportunities were provided in the form of sub contracts to local Area contractors. Local community women were hired as ‘Ladies Patrol’. At Doha Urban Pipeline Relocation Project, we had a British project manager, with Russian pipeline engineers, Georgian supervisors (who were earlier working with us on the BTC pipeline in Georgia), an Egyptian safety officer, Nepalese, Bangladeshi and Pakistani workers.
Our management team is well-qualified and experienced in the industry and has been instrumental in the growth of our operations. And our Board carries members who bring significant international business experience.
We are dedicated to the development of the expertise and know-how of our employees. Our personnel policies are aimed towards recruiting talented employees, and encouraging the development of their skills.
