Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
Invented for life. It’s not just the Bosch slogan, it’s a commitment. A pledge that our actions in the present and the future are socially sustainable and impactful. Since the company’s inception, and true to the vision of its founder – Robert Bosch, the Group has constantly been engaged in activities that create a sustainable impact. Through the development of sophisticated technologies and solutions, which are directed towards improvement of life, conservation of resources and the environment, and upliftment of the less privileged, Bosch has worked ceaselessly towards creating a multiplier effect. Drawing from the approach of its parent company in Germany, over the past 60 years Bosch in India has created a space for itself in the society not just as a technology and innovation pioneer, but also as a company that ‘cares.’ The company has always been committed to the progress and nurturing of its associates and society at large. To that end, the introduction of several associate and community welfare programs at Bosch India, underline the company’s commitment to create sustainable impact. By choosing to focus its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities on principle areas such as health & hygiene, vocational training and community development, Bosch in India is reinforcing its commitment towards creating a sustainable impact. Interrelated, these focus areas reinforce each other in practice. For some years, the need had been felt to take the company’s social engagement program to the next level. To realize this vision, a steering committee has been formed, comprising of six senior Bosch executives from business divisions, plant and corporate functions, who strongly believe in the cause. These steps intend to take the company’s social engagement initiatives to a higher level of performance that enable integrated and sustainable social impact. The committee will also help create self-sustaining scalable programs that have a multiplier effect, while it also facilitates in the execution of Bosch Limited’s long-term societal engagement and creating national storylines.
