1. Introduction:
Ashok Piramal Group will be implementing Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) in the near future. A survey on employee interest
will be undertaken to get an idea of the number of people interested in
volunteering for CSR.
‘Employee volunteering’ in Business/Statutory Organizations is mainly to
encourage and support their employees to carry out voluntary work for the
underprivileged or the society as a whole, which is unpaid and done out of
their own free will to bring a change for the good.
Brief about the CSR programme:
1. Presentation to the employees to give them a feel of the entire CSR
initiative taken by APG.
2. Circulation of survey
3. Analyzing the needs, requirements and expectations of the
employees.
4. Matching the possible CSR activities with employee needs.
5. Implementation of CSR activities in the real sense.
Objective of Survey :
• To get an idea of how many people in the company are aware of the
social issues, concerned of the existing social problems and have a
willingness to make a change by involving themselves in CSR
activities.
• To find out the areas of interests of the employees and then to provide
them an opportunity according to their needs and interests.
We look forward to a positive response on part of the employees by giving
their valuable time to fill this form and submit it.
