Job creation (LA2)
Tata steel always endeavor’s to curtail the
excess workforce but still seeks to create
jobs for the masses. Tata Steel had 42,511
employees on its roll as on 31.03.2004,
which dropped to 39,648 as on 31.03.2005,
and further decreased to 38,182 as on
31.03.2006. Tata Steel is
giving serious consideration to reducing its
labour cost, which is currently 9% of its
turnover. The contract labour reduced to
5,631 in FY 05-06 from 7743 in FY 04-05.
Despite reduction of workforce at Works, due
to increased production, Tata Steel has
created indirect employment in the area of
transportation, which we have not been able
to capture. In addition, due to the
outsourcing of various activities in
operational areas and during implementation
of expansion project, there was an increase
in the employment of contractors and
suppliers.
