Initiative RTI

October 07, 2009

As the first initiative to create awareness about the Right to Information Act (RTI) in the State, the Information Commission of Orissa and Tata Steel Rural Development Society have organized a function at Chingudiapal village in Jajpur district, where the Campaign on RTI has been formally launched today. A general health camp has also been organized to mark this occasion.

As part of this campaign, the Company will run,

  • RTI Clinics-cum-Citizen Assistance Centre in Keonjhar and Jajpur district
  • Multimedia campaigns through TV, Radio and SMS
  • Develop reading materials on information, education and communication (IEC) to support citizen's initiative on RTI

Tata Steel has always played a pioneering role in strengthening the people's rights. It is the first Company to introduce Leave with Pay, Workers' Provident Fund Scheme, Workmens' Accident Compensation Scheme, Maternity Benefits, Eight-Hour Working Days, Free Medical Aid, Retirement Gratuity and Profit Sharing Bonus much before they were enforced by law.

The continuous efforts of the Company will certainly come a long way in creating informed citizens force in Orissa.
