The FTS Group understands the value that people deliver in the making of a great company. The Group's spirited involvement in community service is inspired by these beliefs
Beyond business
The FTS Group is both a people-driven and people-centric organization. The Group's ethos on social responsibility focuses on not just taking care of its own employees, but enabling and enriching the communities around the areas where its plants are located.
In addition, the Group has been at the forefront in rendering aid and assistance by way of donations as well as relief supplies in times of national calamities, such as the tsunami, earthquakes and floods. FTS has made significant contributions to the Prime Minister and Chief Ministers relief funds in the past several years to alleviate suffering and help rehabilitation.
Employee involvement
The underlying objectives of FTS's activities are to motivate employees to participate in, and contribute to the activities initiated by the Community Relations Centre, to create self-help groups for village women, to further overall development of children and women, and to spread awareness about AIDS and de-addiction.
FTS has outlined seven focus areas where employee involvement can make a difference to the people of the community:
Education
Self-employment
Training
Infrastructure development
Medicine
Health and hygiene
Recreation and welfare
In every quarter, specific tasks have been lined up, and are being conducted with a high success rate, with the involvement of community leaders.
