Balmer Lawrie firmly believes in the principles of Global Compact. The Company reaffirms its commitment to not only pursue the principles but also advance the cause as enunciated in the charter. 

The Company, as hitherto before, pledges to uphold human rights, adhere to the rights and dignity of labour, promote and encourage greater environmental responsibility. It also places a very high premium on promoting ethical values of integrity and transparency in all its business dealings.

The entire Balmer Lawrie fraternity is involved in pursuit of the sustainable development initiatives. The Company’s Leather Chemical Division has been re-certified under the Integrated Management System Certificate (ISO 9001:2000, ISO 14000:2004 and OHSAS 18001:1999) by Certification body of TUV SUD Management Services GMBH, Germany. The Greases and Lubricants Division at Kolkata and Silvassa have been accorded ISO 14001-2004 certification. Work is in progress to certify the Grease plant at Chennai under OSHAS.

All of us in Balmer Lawrie reiterate our commitment to pursue a policy rooted in social and environmental responsibility. We once again reaffirm our resolve to support the principles of Global Compact.
