Since we first introduced Vedanta Values, they have become a vital part of our culture and an essential underpinning of our growth and success. Every person at Vedanta understands what is important – how we work together as a team and how ‘growth and sustainable development’ are at the centre of what we do. These are universal values, which guide us at Vedanta as we expand into new markets and countries.
We are empowered to drive excellence and innovation; we demonstrate world-class standards of governance, safety, sustainability and social responsibility. Our business was built with a simple mission envisioned by the group’s Chairman, Mr. Anil Agarwal – "To create a leading global natural resource company."
Our Values help us achieve this mission.
We actively foster a culture of transparency in our interactions and encourage an open dialogue which ensures mutual trust and respect.
People are our most important assets; they are at the heart of everything we do. We dedicatedly create an enabling environment to support them in pursuing personal and professional goals.
We encourage innovation that leads to zero harm, zero waste and zero discharge environment and optimal utilization of natural resources, improved efficiencies and recoveries of by-products.
Our primary focus is delivering value of the highest standard. We are constantly looking at ways to reduce costs and increase production in our businesses through benchmarking best practices and employee participation.
We engage ethically and transparently with all our stakeholders, taking accountability of our actions. We maintain highest standards of professionalism and stringently comply with international policies and procedures.
We are committed to our triple bottom line of ‘People, Planet and Prosperity’ to create a sustainable future in a “zero-harm, zero waste and zero discharge” environment for our communities.
We lay consistent emphasis on human rights and respect the principle of free, prior, informed consent, while our engagements with stakeholders give local communities the opportunity to voice their opinions and concerns.
