Corporate Sustainability

 

In line with our strategic objective to be a responsible corporate citizen, our constant endeavour is to reduce the impact from our operations to the environment.

N Chandrasekaran "TCS’ vision is to decouple business growth and ecological footprint from its operations to address the environment bottom-line. The green approach is embedded in our internal processes and services offerings...... From green buildings to green IT to a green supply chain, our mantra is to grow sustainably and help our customers achieve sustainable growth through our green solutions and service offerings"

- N Chandrasekaran, CEO & MD, TCS

TCS’ Sustainability Initiatives – The Three Pillars

Sustainable Operations: Being an organization of more than 250,000 employees, our infrastructure, facilities, and associates have a large impact on the society and environment. We aim to run our operations in a socially and environmentally sustainable manner. For instance, a large portion of the infrastructure for our operations in this decade is being built or yet to be built. We aim to build these as “greener infrastructure.” 

Corporate Social Responsibilty: The guiding principle of TCS’ CSR programmes is “Impact through Empowerment.” TCS has a diverse range of global CSR initiatives in the areas of education, health and environment: volunteering, funding and pro bono leveraging of our IT capabilities. 

Solutions for our Customers: With a dedicated eco-sustainability team working across industry verticals, we aim to provide next-generation sustainability services to our customers. We integrate sustainability into their business strategies and unlock environmental efficiencies in their entire value chain.
