Welfare measures for Employees in Tata Steel Ltd.
 Tata Steel Limited is a multi-location organization operating across the globe with more than
60,000 employees. They were trend setters in Employee welfare measures and had introduced
schemes like 8 hour working day, Leave with pay, Workers Provident Fund which was later
adopted by International Labour Organization and the same was implemented through a statute
across the country. Human beings are central and essential for the success of any organization.
Tata Steel has achieved a preeminent position in Indian industry primarily through maintaining
good relationships with its employees and other stakeholders. Our Company has always believed
that its values and the standards it sets are the foundation of its very existence.
 Tata Steel began its operations in 1911 with an 8-hour working day when most workers in the rest
of the world were working 10 to 12 hours per day. The Company has an unprecedented history of
good industrial relations and labour welfare. This is thanks to management’s concern for the
workers coupled with the proactive yet reasonable attitude and demands of the workers’ union
which was founded in 1920. As a result of this proactive partnership, Tata Steel has many firsts in
labour welfare standards worldwide and many of these have later been incorporated as laws by the
country of India.
 Housing: In places where Tata Steel has its manufacturing and mining facilities like Jamshedpur,
West Bokaro etc, Tata Steel has developed colonies to provide housing to their employees. Houses
of various types are constructed and employees depending on their profile are allotted
accommodation. The house allotment process is transparent based on points depending on their
level and years of service. Those not provided with house are given House Rent Allowance.
 Utilities: Power and Water to the colonies are provided by the Company. Earlier, this was being
done by the Company Town Administration. This has later been made into separate Utilities
providing Company called JUSCO (Jamshedpur Utilities and Services (Company) which
specializes in township administration. While in certain locations the employees are charged for
theses utilities in other hardship locations, they are provided at nominal cost to the employees
