Tata Steel’s sustainability mission
“In a free enterprise, the community is not just another stakeholder, but is, in fact, the very purpose of its existence.”
It is these words of Jamsetji Tata, Founder of Tata Steel that have shaped the Company’s culture of social responsibility. At Tata Steel, the benefits of wealth creation extend beyond the business, flowing into the communities in which the Company operates.
Tata Steel’s approach to business has evolved from the concept that the wealth created must be continuously returned to society.
