On June 22, Schaeffler India joined the global community to celebrate climate action day by coming together to plan initiatives that will help reduce our impact on the environment. To ensure that our employees were well-equipped to take part in these actions, a 90-minute workshop was conducted for all Schaeffler India employees to raise awareness of the sensitivity around climate change and connect with the global Schaeffler Group family.

Launched in CY22, GPS–India 2022 was an overwhelming success, with a record response rate of 86% and over 2,400 responses. The survey was fully anonymous and compliant with General Data Protection Regulations, allowing employees to share their feedback in confidential detail. This demonstrated high levels of engagement and commitment to Schaeffler India’s future. The next global pulse survey is planned for the first quarter of 2023.
Schaeffler India fosters an innovative atmosphere by providing our employees with the opportunity to bring their ideas to life through our ‘idea factory’ platform. This platform encourages our staff to suggest creative solutions for improving processes or enhancing products. These ideas are then assessed in detail, and when approved, they are implemented within the Company. The originators of the ideas are also rewarded for their contributions

Creating an inclusive workforce is essential to promoting a culture of innovation and empowerment. We recognise the need to create a fair and equitable workplace for all employees, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, or disability. To ensure this, we make a concerted effort to build a diverse and inclusive workforce. Various initiatives are in place such as targets for increasing the percentage of female employees in leadership positions to 8% by CY25 and actively recruiting and promoting more women into senior leadership roles. These efforts help us create an environment of inclusion and respect for all employees, allowing us to reach our full potential.
We actively address gender biases by implementing various initiatives. For example, we significantly increased our female workforce on the shop floor to 40% at our Talegaon plant.
We are extending the initiative from our Talegaon plant to the Savli plant in Gujarat . To this end, we are running sensitisation programmes for our workforce to raise awareness of gender roles and are actively engaging with female employees on the shop floor.

Being on the cutting edge of mobility and motion requires us to invest in our people and train our engineers. We are building technical and behavioural competencies in all fields, including advanced manufacturing technologies and soft skill development. We offer learning opportunities through a consolidated platform called The Schaeffler Academy. This will help us ensure a healthy exchange of expertise and build a community of learners
