5 | FOREWORD

The world is moving. And it is clearly getting faster by the day. Ongoing climate change, increasing urbanization, globalization, and digitalization will all permanently influence and change the ways in which we live and work.

These are changes that we want to play an active part in shaping. Our “Mobility for tomorrow” strategy was put in place in order to allow us to achieve this goal. Based on the four megatrends listed above, Schaeffler is focusing on four areas across divisions and regional borders: “Eco-Friendly Drives”, “Urban Mobility”, “Interurban Mobility”, and “Energy Chain”. As a globally active automotive and industrial supplier, we provide our customers with products, system solutions, and services that help to make our world cleaner, safer and smarter.

Within the Schaeffler Group too, however, sustainable management along the entire value-added chain and social responsibility are integral parts of the corporate culture that we practice. We place great emphasis on combining economic success with acting responsibly towards our customers, the environ-ment, and our employees. We provide a safe working environment for our employees in addition to active health protection measures and services. This has its key points firmly anchored in our corporate code of conduct.

Group-wide governance guarantees that our guidelines and high standards in the fields of environmental protection, health protection, and occupational safety apply at every Schaeffler location around the world. Every one of the Schaeffler Group’s manufacturing locations works with environmental management sys-tems according to EMAS or ISO 14001. We are always working to further develop these, and we prioritize Europe’s stringent EMAS standard as the basis wherever possible. We do not differentiate between our plants in Germany and those in other countries in Europe, the USA, or Asia; after all, we believe there is only one environment – one that is global and worth protecting. When it comes to fulfilling high environ-mental and social standards, we also actively involve our suppliers.

As a global family-owned company, we are joined by four central values – sustainable, innovative, excellent, and passionate – and these are the expression of our responsibility towards the environment and our customers and employees, as well as towards future generations. Our aim is to keep continuously developing Schaeffler by not losing sight of our vision, which makes a future worth living possible.

Divisions

Automotive The Schaeffler Group has divided its business activities into the two divisions Automotive and Industrial. As a partner to the automotive sector, the Schaeffler Group leads the field when it comes to developing and manufacturing groundbreaking components and systems for engines, trans-missions, and chassis, for both vehicles with drive trains based on the internal combustion engine and hybrid and electric vehicles. The Automotive division business is organized into the business divisions (BD) Engine Systems, Transmission Systems, Chassis Systems, and Automotive Aftermarket.

The Automotive division’s main products include clutch systems, transmission components, torsion dampers, valve train systems, camshaft phasing units, electric drives, and bearing solutions in transmissions and chassis. The Schaeffler Group’s precision products and systems are key to helping make engines use less fuel and comply with incre-asingly strict emission requirements. At the same time, they also extend engine and transmission life

and increase driving comfort and dynamics. Its comprehensive technical expertise for the entire drive train is what sets apart Schaeffler Automotive, one of the leading automotive suppliers worldwide. As future consumption and emissions targets can only be fully met by electrifying the drive train, the Schaeffler Group offers solutions for the entire range of electrification types – from hybrid through to fully electric drive systems.

A comprehensive Aftermarket portfolio rounds out the business of the Automotive division. The product range covers applications in clutch and release systems, engine and transmission applications, and chassis applications. In addition, Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket offers a com-prehensive variety of services such as practice-oriented training courses, advice provided by the Schaeffler repair hotline or the group’s online garage portal, as well as the development of specialized tools.


The bearings and related products manufactured by the Industrial division are used, for example, in wind turbines.

Industrial The Industrial division is primarily managed based on regions due to its wide customer and business structure. On this basis, the Europe, Americas, Greater China, and Asia/Pacific regions operate as profit centers responsible for the Industrial business in their respective markets. Within the regions, the Industrial business is grouped into eight sectors: (1) wind, (2) raw materials, (3) aerospace, (4) rail, (5) offroad, (6) two wheelers, (7) power transmission, and (8) industrial auto-mation. Sales to distributors (Industrial Distribu-tion) round out the Industrial division’s regional business.

The Industrial division’s product spectrum includes rolling and plain bearings, linear technology, main-tenance products, monitoring systems, and direct drive technology. The Industrial division offers a broad portfolio of bearing solutions, ranging from high-speed and high-precision bearings with small diameters to large-size bearings over three meters in diameter.

Environmental Protection Worldwide

At all manufacturing locations Since the mid-1990s, Schaeffler has been deve-loping an environmental management system of which it has every reason to be proud today: Virtually all of the company’s manufacturing locations are certified according to ISO 14001 and the even more stringent EMAS regulations. New locations generally follow suit within three years.

Leading role in the application of EMAS The total number of EMAS-registered manu-facturing locations, particularly outside the European Union, means that Schaeffler is playing a significant leading role. Schaeffler was the first organization to apply EMAS outside the EU, thus laying the foundation for the registration of locations in third countries that subsequently became possible with EMAS III (also referred to as “EMAS Global”).

Numerous awards Schaeffler’s commitment here has already garnered special awards on numerous occasions, including the Bavarian Environmental Medal, the “Ökoglobe”, and the Ford Motor Company’s “Recognition of Achievement, Environmental Leadership”, which it has also won three times in a row. Schaeffler won the EMAS Award for Germany and Europe in 2005 and, in 2015, also received an honorary award during the European EMAS Awards ceremony.

Sharing experiences Schaeffler shares its experience and expertise in this field with interested groups in numerous different ways – for example, it is a member of the Environmental Verification Committee, leads the EMAS Review working group, creates various EMAS reference documents, carries out research studies, receives visits from universities and expert groups, holds regional meetings with EMAS clubs, and takes part in numerous conferences and workshops relating to EMAS and environmental management.

13 | GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Standards on Environmental Protection and Occupational SafetyISO 14001 ISO 14001 is an international, private standard for environmental management systems. It was published in 1996. Similar to the quality standard ISO 9001, also ISO 14001 is built on the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle for the continuous improvement of systems. That cycle was developed by William Deming in the 1930s years. Like all ISO standards the current ISO 14001 chapters follow the so called high level structure. Important contents are amongst others the preparation of an environ-mental policy, the assessment of environmental impacts, the definition of responsibilities and the preparation of an environmental program, docu-ment control and conducting audits. Many bigger companies, especially from the automotive sector, require that their suppliers are certified according to this standard by an accredited certifier. Because of this it is wide spread.

EMAS EMAS stands for environmental management and audit scheme. The basis of the system is a Euro-pean regulation, which was published in 1993. However the participation is voluntary. EMAS requires a system according to ISO 14001 and additionally compliance with environmental law and the preparation of a comprehensive environ-mental statement. Both has to be checked and confirmed by a licensed or accredited environ-mental verifier. EMAS is the superior and more ambitious of both systems. It is focusing on perfor-mance, transparency and credibility and is mainly implemented within the European Union.

OHSAS 18001 OHSAS 18001 is based on a British standard for occupational health and safety management systems. It exists since 1999 and has much in common with ISO 14001 or ISO 9001. One main element is the preparation of risk assessments. Since 2016 a draft of an ISO 45001 is available, that will replace OHSAS 18001 within the next years.

ISO 50001 ISO 50001 is a relatively young standard for energy management systems. The structure and contents is similar to those of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. Especially because of tax incentives the number of ISO 50001 certifications has increased significantly in many countries during the last years.

Schaeffler Environmental, Health and Safety Policy

Environmental protection, occupational health, and occupational safety (EHS) are part of our management principles. We help ensure the continuity and success of our company by creating and sustaining a work environment that is safe, healthy, and conducive to performance and by actively protecting the environment. The following principles apply to all areas of our company. We are committed to taking responsibility for our employees, society, and future generations.

Efficient Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental Protection Management We actively use a global occupational health and safety and environmental management system that is undergoing continuous improvement and provide our employees with a fulfilling and fruitful life until retirement age. We elaborate forward-looking holistic concepts, structures, and processes that we implement in collaboration with our contractual partners. We carry out regular checks across all areas to determine the extent to which these measures have been implemented and to monitor the success of our management system.

Safe, Employee-Friendly Workplaces We are convinced that all occupational accidents and illnesses can be avoided. Motivated em-ployees and managers help us achieve our goal of a zero-accident workplace. When it comes to protection, our employees and contractors have equal priority. When designing work centers and procedures, we take into account the latest trends and developments and place special emphasis on ergonomic design.

Reliable Actions We are committed to observing all legislation and specifications regarding work safety and environ-mental protection. We act in a responsible manner in accordance with our own regulations, which, in many cases, go beyond existing legal requi-rements. We configure, purchase, operate, and maintain machines and facilities in such a way as to minimize potential hazards, risks, and operati-onal disturbances. Our technology is based on the latest state of the art.

Minimum Environmental Impact and Environmentally-Friendly Products Regardless of the activities we are carrying out, we endeavor to minimize environmental impact by taking suitable measures in advance. We consume raw materials and energy sparingly and make every effort to minimize waste, waste water, noise, and other emissions. We manufacture environmentally-friendly products taking into account the entire product lifecycle.

Responsible Employees We hold regular information and training sessions to ensure that our employees and business part-ners have the expertise and knowledge to carry out their work safely in a health-promoting manner and with the minimum of environmental impact in all areas of the company.

Preventive Measures We preserve and promote the physical and psycho-logical health of our employees. We take compre-hensive preventive measures to protect our em-ployees and prevent damage to the environment. Comprehensive and effective emergency measures are in place at all locations to ensure that our employees and visitors are treated properly in the event of injury.

Open Communication We conduct an intensive and trusted dialog with interested parties. We provide information about our work safety and environmental protection measures as well as the impact each of our locations has on the environment.

Chief Executive Officer, Schaeffler AG Klaus Rosenfeld

15 | GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

The company’s intranet provides comprehensive information: contact persons, databases, a waste guide and much more. This information is made available to all employees worldwide.

Company newsletters and notices are also used to inform employees.

Regular Conferences Environmental protection conferences held every year allow participants to exchange information and coordinate goals and actions. These confe-rences last several days and are attended by the environmental protection coordinators from all locations.

Since environmental protection conferences were first introduced, cooperation and coordination (e. g. for planning environmentally relevant facilities) between all locations have improved tremendously.

Global Regulations: Plant Standards and Procedures All actions relevant for the environment, such as the approval of indirect materials or the specification of substances prohibited for use in products and packaging, are regulated globally by special plant standards. In this way, Schaeffler ensures that hazardous materials are used only if there are no other alternatives.

Environmental Communication

The relevant departments are informed in a timely manner about the use of such materials, and the required action is taken. This means that our customers can be sure that products supplied by Schaeffler contain only approved materials.

Safety rules and regulations also apply to con-tractors working in Schaeffler plants. A document detailing all safety-related requirements has been prepared for contractors working on the plant premises. Contractors may not enter the premises to perform their work unless they have agreed in writing to comply with these requirements.

Regular Internal and External Audits The level and progress of the company’s environ-mental protection are also monitored by regular internal audits at all manufacturing sites as well as external audits by an independent environmental verifier. These audits are planned and coordinated at company headquarters and carried out by the Schaeffler auditor pool. The Schaeffler Group’s internal environmental auditors participate in multi-day training courses for auditors on a regular basis.

All locations receive an audit report that includes details of the current status and recommendations for improvement.

Due dates and responsibilities are defined for all relevant measures.

European EMAS Award 2015

Schaeffler receives an honorary award for environmental protection

In May 2015, Schaeffler received an honorary award from the European Commission for its leading role in the application of EMAS during the European EMAS Awards ceremony. Schaeffler had registered its first location in China in accordance with EMAS, and has more manufacturing locations on the register than any other company, particular ly outside of the EU.

The award was presented by Kestutis Saduaskas, director of the European Commission’s Green Economy section, during the ceremony in Barcelona, and received on behalf of Schaeffler by Lennart Schleicher, Director of the Environmental Protection and Safety Management System.

Prior to this, Schaeffler had won the national preliminary selection in the “major companies” category.

The European EMAS Award was first announced in 2005 and even at the start was presented to Schaeffler at both the national and European level.

EMAS, which stands for European Eco-Manage-ment and Audit Scheme, is a management system designed to help organizations improve their environmental performance and communicate their results. EMAS is chiefly characterized by its performance, credibility, and transparency, and is considered to be the premier environmental management system.

Environmentally Friendly Products

Environmental pollution and the depletion of resources can largely be attributed to the increased consumption of products. We must change our way of thinking and insist on environmentally friendly products that use fewer resources and minimize the strain on the environment. Our “Integrated Product Policy (IPP)” addresses this idea and aims to promote environmentally friendly products.

Schaeffler – Always One Step Ahead This isn’t a new idea for Schaeffler; we have embraced this idea for many years. We accepted the challenge to design environmentally friend-ly products a long time ago. What is new is the methods and tools used to achieve this goal. How can we utilize previously untapped potential to improve the ecobalance of a product over its entire lifecycle?

New Inroads One way to make environmentally friendly pro-ducts is to increase the efficiency of the material and energy used, thus reducing environmental impacts. We continuously evaluate and design all material and energy flows, from the time they enter the company to the time they leave as products or residual materials.

Comprehensive Data Management The company’s own environmental data coordi-nator handles inputs and outputs of material and energy flows for all processes and products at the respective plant. Material flow analyses help further integrate environmental management into the company’s corporate units, such as Logistics, Manufacturing and Financial Controlling. Existing processes and technologies are questioned tho-roughly, and additional opportunities for improving processes are recognized and put into practice.

Information Networks Environmental impacts occur even when resources are extracted. To make products even more environmentally friendly, Schaeffler stays in close contact with its suppliers and customers. A shared network is used to record and analyze environmen-tal information along the entire product chain. The insights gained allow new solutions to be recognized for environmentally friendly products and sustainable development.

Recycling We try to ensure that manufactured components are recycled at the end of a vehicle’s service life. This is why LuK and INA are founding members of the Partslife recycling system.

Our manufacturing process In LuK India the Products manufactured cover as-semblies, driven plates and Clutch Release System. Clutch is a mechanism which enables the rotary motion of one shaft to be transmitted, when desi-red, to a second shaft, the axis of which is coinci-dent of the first shaft. To manufacture these parts, we utilize various processes, raw materials and natural resources. All of these have an impact on the environment. To minimize these impacts, steps are taken to conserve natural resources and to ope-rate in an environmentally friendly and responsible manner. Typical processes used in our manufactu-ring operations are machining operations (turning, drilling balancing), Stamping, heat treatment and assembly. Primary raw materials used include steel, forgings, castings, oil and preservatives.

Machine shop In the machine shop the raw materials in the form of Castings and forgings like Pressure plate, Cover, Hub, Lever etc are machined through the various machining processes like Turning, Milling, Slit-ting, Drilling, counter boring, hobbing, broaching and Balancing with the help of resources such as Electricity, Emulsions, Lubrication oils, Hydraulic oils and processing oils etc. The finished or ma-chined parts from the machine shop are preserved and stored in a metal bins and transferred to the assembly shop.

From 2013 the Machine shop is divided into two as per the MOVE concept;

1. Casting machining includes only dry cutting which is located in the new plant along with the assembly shop for direct feeding.

2. Forging machining which includes wet cutting is located in the old plant to feed the parts for heat treatment and then sent to assembly.

Press shop In the press shop the raw materials in the form of sheet metals are converted into the semi-finished parts such as Covers, segments, straps, Retainer plate and carrier plate through the operations like Blanking, piercing, Drawing and Lancing with the help of resources such as Electricity, Lubrication oils, Hydraulic oils etc. The semi-finished parts are preserved and stored in a metal bin then they will be transferred to the assembly.

21 | LOCATION

Heat treatment shop The semi-finished parts from the machine shop, press shop like carrier plate, main plate, dia-phragm and Hub are hardened through Heat treatment & Phosphating processes in different furnaces & operations with the help of resources like Electricity, Methanol, LPG, Processing oils, Hy-draulic Oils, Lubrication Oils, Rust Preventing Oils, Phosphating Chemicals etc. The Hardened parts are then transferred to the assembly shop.

Assembly shop In the assembly shop all the parts from the machine shop, press shop, and heat treatment shop are brought together and assembled through the various assembly operations like, Riveting (Cover, Diaphragm, Facing, Segment Stop Pin etc), Height checking, balancing, load checking, Spin Testing, Printing, inspection and Packing with the help of the resources like Electricity, Hydraulic oil, Preservation oil, Processing Oils etc.. Then the final products are transported to the finished goods stores in a preserved manner.

Environmental Impacts

One of the primary objectives of environmental protection is to prevent adverse effects on the environment and to minimize those effects that cannot be controlled. There are many measures have been implemented to achieve this objective. The environmental effects caused at the location are evaluated on a regular basis. It is also being re-viewed in different forum like environment & safety meeting on regular interval, Management Review meeting, and review after generating the report. A team was formed by nominating person from each zone for taking lead in the area of environment and safety. Each member has to take care of environ-ment and safety aspect of the area. The evaluation of impact is done through risk assessment by adopting SFMEA & EFMEA (Safety & Environmental Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) methodology. LuK India has established effective environmental management system for management of various aspects and Impacts of Environment like water pollution, air pollution, soil pollution, waste ma-nagement, energy conservation etc. In LuK India an environmental policy exist within the organization, fully supported by senior management, and also outlining the policies of the company, not only to the staff but to the public. The policy needs to cla-rify compliance with environmental legislation that may affect the organization and stress a commit-ment to continuous improvement.

Monitoring System at Luk India The performance of management system is being monitored internally by the management in Ma-nagement Review with the top management by the Energy, Environment Health & Safety representa-tive, safety Walks, energy Walks, internal audits, layered Audits, waste water analysis in house as well as through external agency Stack, moni-toring of flue gas emission, monitoring of diesel generator outlet, dust collector samples, Ambient Air analysis, Improvement in workplace environ-ment by the ergonomics coordinator. The aspects identified, which have environmental impact are defined by the statutory bodies are directly taken as significant aspects.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS | 24

Direct Environmental Impacts

Emissions and Dust The main sources of emissions are the flue gases coming out from the Heat Treatment Furnaces for producing child parts and from the Diesel Gene-rators operated during electricity supply failure or non-availability. Regular maintenance and soot burning of the furnaces ensures that these air emissions meet the prescribed norms consistently. The quality of these air emissions is being checked and monitored on monthly basis. As far as dust is concerned, the air borne dust production is very less as the machines are enclosed and having ext-raction system to minimize the fugitive emissions.

Air The main source of emission to the atmospheric air at LuK India is the diesel generator smoke, rotary furnace, roller hearth furnace and seal quench furnace. LuK India strictly follow the manufacturer’s instruction and maintain the values of emission well below the limits.

Water Consumption In LuK India the main source of water is under ground water and the outside water. The water is taken from underground using water pump and transferred to over head tank having capacity of 300.000 Ltrs. From over head tank water is being supplied to plant areas.

The water is mainly used for drinking, canteen (cooking), emulsions, heat treatment washing systems & cooling circuits, and domestic, garde-ning and domestic cleaning purpose. For domestic cleaning purpose we used ground water (bore well water). For gardening and toilet flushing purpose we use sewage treated water (STP). The increase trend from 2013 to 2015 is due to increase in production, this leads to more usage of phosphate, machining operations and then the trend is stable to have more focus of the same.

Water Protection The Contaminated water is generated due to leakage or spillage of oil / coolant, floor washing activities, from toilet flushing and from canteen fa-cility. To ensure that any such contamination does not spoil the underground water sources or soil, all such wastewater as well as domestic wastewater is diverted through underground sewers to the cen-tralized Sewage treatment plant. It has the capacity to treat jointly maximum 90.000 liter / day for the treatment of industrial as well as domestic effluent.

The Centralize Sewage Treatment Plant is having three stages of treatment:

1. Primary Treatment2. Secondary Treatment3. Tertiary Treatment

In Primary Treatment, Inorganic suspended impu-rities are being removed under the influence of Chemical Coagulation using Alum as coagulant. In secondary treatment the dissolved impurities are being removed in aeration tank by means of active microorganism called biomass present in the aeration tank, which reduces majority of effluent load by bio chemical reaction. In Tertiary treatment,


the effluent is further polished by passing through pressure filters and filtered effluent confirming the disposal is finally discharged to the public sewer. Daily checking and monitoring of treated effluent ensures that the treated effluent meets all the prescribed norms enforced by the local authority for disposal in sewer. In the underground pits of supply system, spillage alarm systems have been installed to alert spillage and leakages if any, which has reduced the frequency as well as quantity of spillage. Moreover, laboratory trials are being carried out for enhancing the life of grinding emulsions, which has reduced the chances of con-tamination due to spillage, while transferring these fluids for treatment before disposal. The Treated water is recycled for toilet flushing and gardening purpose. Underground water is only the source of water and to improve the quantity and quality of underground water resources rainwater harvesting system is implemented in 2010 by digging in 11 place and now 19 rain water harvesting pits are installed. And in 2013 to increase the ground water Grasscretes has been implemented in the plant II. In 2015 we have installed the waterless urinals to save water in urinal flushing’s this will minimize the wastage of water we have created awareness for all employees regarding the water consumption.

Performance Measures taken for water consumption reduction>> To minimize the domestic water consumption we

have installed sewage Treatment plant for the effective utilization of waste water.

>> Drinking water consumption is under target.>> Sewage Treatment plant has been installed in

new plant and Operation Started>> Environmental Awareness program conducted

regarding water resource depletion.>> Periodical maintenance done for all pipe lines

Polythene and Paper Waste Generation in Tonnes

Sludge Disposal in 2011 is more due to Transfer of accumulated sludges from the LuK plant Land Fill to the TNPCB central Hazardous waste storage area at Gummidipoondi.

>> In the year 2012 Total Sludge disposed was 36.1 Tonne

>> In the Year 2014 & 2013 The Sludge disposal slightly increased due to the excess moisture content in the SLUDGE

>> In 2015 the sludge disposal is reduced due to the press filters installed before the sludge dis-posed and actions are in place for the reduction of sludge generation.

Performance Measures taken for hazardous waste monitoring>> Phosphating and ETP chemical sludge properly

packed, Compacted and transported to the Local Government centralized landfill.

>> Compacting device installed to bring down the Moisture Content from the Sludge.

Nonhazardous waste management At LuK India the major nonhazardous waste generation is turning chips, which are sold to scrap recyclers. Other scrap generated are waste papers, wood, polythene cover and Plastics.

Degradable waste, non-degradable waste are segregated and stored in separate bins. The waste is disposed to the authorized agency. Waste gene-ration decreased when compared to 2013, this is due to the new machines procured and increase in production.


Performance Measures taken for non hazardous waste generation Environmental management program(s) are implemented and being monitored:

>> Scrap yard optimization project carried out >> Solid and liquid waste management >> Reduction in packing material consumption by

recyclable packaging methods >> Reduction in paper consumption by providing

awareness and E-Approvals>> Implementation of re-usable packing material

The other performance measures like:

>> Process improvement activity carried out to redu-ce process scrap generation.

>> Material efficiency by reducing allowances in soft machining and is being monitored

Regularly and reviewed:

>> Proper collection, segregation and storage of different types of wastes help in their proper disposal

>> There are separate disposal bunkers for metal-lic waste, maintenance waste, wooden waste, plastic waste, empty barrels and cardboards, grinding dust, effluent treatment, solid waste, used oil, with secondary containment, etc.

Noise The organization is proactively taking appropriate steps to reduce noise level in the working as well as in surrounding environment. External noise levels are low and are being monitored every 3 month. Hence noise to the surroundings is not a significant issue. The company has taken many preventive measures like Sound proofing for new presses procured, frequent tightening of enclosu-res & doors, heavy vibration equipment fastening, smoothen wheel provided to the Tugger etc. to reduce the prevailing noise level in the working environment.

Ambient noise level is slightly increasing since 2011. The increase of noise level above the specifi-cation is due to the addition of machines, pres-ses without the acoustic enclosure and the dust collectors and due to development of industrial area with a number of small units and buildings


near the factory. Public vehicle transportation also increased since the State highway is just near the boundary. The noise level in work zone slightly increased when compared to 2014 but within the specification the increase is due to new machines introduced in shop floor (New presses, CNC Machi-nes and furnaces).

Performance measures initiated for noise level monitoring & reduction >> LuK India monitors the noise level of each zone

and instructions about the usage of Personnel Protective Equipment’s are displayed (auto glow signage displayed in all zones).

>> Acoustic running generator available. >> New presses are procured with Acoustics and the

old press are planned for the same.

Energy Management

Electricity Electricity is the main source of supply. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is used for heating in the furnaces and in the canteen for cooking purpose. An in-house Electrical supply substation distribu-tes the electrical energy. The present maximum connected load available is 6,250 KVA. But the demand required is 2,400 KVA since Government restricting to use full demand of 2,400 KVA we are using only the 1,420 -1,450 KVA and allowed quo-ta is 1,445 KVA from Government. Since we got the total demand from the government we did not use any third party power in 2013. During any failure of main electrical supply, Diesel Generating sets are available to provide electrical power to approx. 80 % of the production facilities. In both the plant Eco friendly 2* 1,500 KVA Generators available as a stand by and 2* Old 750 KVA is available to run during the holidays.

Indirect Environmental Impacts

Products and packaging Packaging has also a significant impact on the en-vironment. As much as possible the wooden crate packaging are avoided and in unavoidable areas, the same is being reused internally.

External transport and logistics Emissions to the atmosphere from transport have an important effect on the environment. To and from transportation of the same material for off-loading activities (such as soft machining) is avoi-ded in many cases by directly unloading the raw material in the vendor’s place. Pollution emission control of the incoming vehicles are ensured by checking the records of the emission test validity.

Suppliers Awareness about various environmental aspects and guidelines regarding good environmental practices are being given to the Suppliers from time to time. Suppliers are also audited for the basic environmental Health and safety activities and requirements. As of now till 2015 50 % of our suppliers are Certified with ISO 14001 and 20 % suppliers are Certified with OHSAS 18001.

Waste Management Companies For the Management of Waste only Authorized or Registered companies are approached for effective disposal of waste using best environmental friend-ly methodology after verification of licenses and disposal / treatment facilities.

Emergency and Risk Management Proactive measures are being taken to reduce emergency and risk, which has resulted into reduction of the significant impact on the environ-ment Health and safety. Training is being given to educate the employee with respect to Emergency Management and Risk Management. Mock drill is being conducted regularly to validate the training given to employees. Moreover, Different medium like posters, power point presentations, case studies, leaf lets, brochures, emails etc. is being used to create awareness among the people with respect to environment management, resource conservation, emergency and risk management.

Design and Development Proactive measures are being taken at the design and development stage to reduce Health hazard, emergency and risk, which has resulted into reduction of the significant impact on the environ-ment as well as significant risk to the people like Eliminating the Asbestos content in the Clutch etc. Moreover, the older machines are being modified/ upgraded considering the occupational safety, health and environmental aspects.
