TML in India drives all its initiatives on sustainability under the guidance of the Board committee on Safety, Health and Sustainability (SHS). All its operations are uniformly guided by the Tata Code of Conduct, which encompasses the principles of Reduce, Recycle, Recover and Refurbish. The Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) Councils at the business level, supported by the SHE Apex Committee at the plant level, are responsible for reviewing the performance every month. All TML plants are responsible for the implementation of energy, environment, and occupational health and safety management programmes.
JLR’s Destination Zero mission for zero emissions, zero accidents and zero congestion is built on the solid foundations of a longstanding commitment to the environment and society. Today’s industrial revolution is driven by waste reduction, decarbonisation, improving air quality, increasing automation and advancing technology. JLR plans to use resources responsibly to help build a better society and a cleaner environment – and in doing so, drive sustainable, profitable growth.
The automobile industry is energy intensive and the associated GHG emissions make it extremely important for our Group companies to chart out a long-term plan for minimising emissions and combatting climate change.
Energy conservation measures have been undertaken across the seven manufacturing plants of TML. They comprise process improvements, instrument replacements, and installation of energy efficient equipment, among others.
