SKILL DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVE

Tata Hitachi has set up Operator Training Schools in Kharagpur, West Bengal & Dharwad in Karnataka. The schools rest on multiple pillars of skill building, social entrepreneurship and training. It imparts driving and servicing skills for excavators and backhoe loaders to the unemployed youth to enhance their employability as operators for construction equipment both in India and abroad. As a policy, 50 per cent of the seats are reserved for SC and ST candidates. The school has a modern hostel, multiple classrooms supported by electronic visual aids. In addition, the school utilizes Tata Hitachi’s state-of-the art machines and other machines for practical sessions: all in an attempt to impart excellent training. The training program includes theory classes on equipment understanding, practical, hands on training for aggregates. A team of well-trained and experienced personnel from the Company leads the initiative.

The initiative does not end here.
