Hardy is committed to applying the
high ethical standards necessary to maintain our reputation as an
employer and operator of choice. To deliver this goal, our
investment and operational decisions take appropriate account of
the social, health, safety and environmental impacts that may
arise during our activities.
Based on mutual respect and understanding, the Group strives to
build and maintain enduring relationships with the GOI, local
authorities, partners, suppliers and business associates.
Respecting the rich cultural diversity of the regions in which we
engage in business, the Group strives to minimise our impact on
the environment, taking into consideration the unique requirements
of the region and local working practices to achieve optimum
performance and timely delivery of projects.
Corporate social responsibility is a fundamental part of
implementing the Group’s corporate strategy and has both practical
and ethical dimensions. It includes managing business concerns,
such as risk; enhancing reputation in conjunction with investing
in the community, and creating
a place where people feel good about working.
The Group contributes to community and social development by
carrying out its business activities in such a manner that provide
energy and infrastructure, employment, skills development and
trade to the areas in which the Group operates. The Group will
consider monetary and human resource contributions to local social
programmes which the Company deems contribute or improve the
overall well being of the communities in which we operate.
In 2009 the Company made cash donations to several charities in
India and Nigeria. Hardy has consistently supported a Rotary
International (District 3150) programme focused on increasing
access to fresh water for agriculture and consumption in
underdeveloped areas of southern India. |
