Employee and Labour Welfare at the Tata Group Companies

Abstract
Employees are the foundation for the superstructure of a corporate organisation. Without them, the organisation would not be able to achieve its identified and highlighted goals and objectives. While the employees are expected to do much for the organisation for the remuneration they receive, the organisation also needs to appreciate their honest and committed services. Employee and Labour welfare needs to be undertaken by corporate organisations for genuine altruism and not for profit-making and goodwill building alone. In this paper, the author has used the study of a Group which has attempted this in corporate India for more than a century. The Tata Group and its major companies have been studied to describe their employee and labour welfare initiatives. The descriptive research design, with the now popular and evolving anecdotal style of narration, has been used by the author. Triangulation of data has been done through personal interviews with top executives of the Group and its major companies, responses to an Executive Perception Survey on Employees, and published information available in the public domain.
