Savitri Jindal Reinforces Employment-Led Growth at Jindal Stainless Hisar
Chairperson Emeritus of OP Jindal Group, Smt Savitri Jindal, participated in the Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana (PM-VBRY) programme at Jindal Stainless’ Hisar facility, underscoring the importance of employment generation and workforce development in India’s growth journey.
The programme highlighted the growing role of industry in supporting the government’s vision of a developed India through job creation, social security, and economic inclusion. Addressing the national event, Prime Minister Narendra Modi noted that nearly 70 lakh jobs have been created under the initiative so far, while around 70 lakh first-time employees have been brought into the formal workforce.
The programme has also facilitated the direct transfer of more than ₹2,400 crore to beneficiaries, strengthening financial support mechanisms and encouraging greater workforce participation. These measures are aimed at expanding formal employment opportunities while enhancing social security coverage for young workers entering the job market.
At Jindal Stainless’ Hisar unit, the session served as a reminder of the critical role manufacturing companies play in driving employment and economic growth. As one of India’s leading stainless steel producers, Jindal Stainless contributes to job creation across production, engineering, logistics, maintenance, and allied industries, supporting both regional development and national manufacturing ambitions.
The event also highlighted the increasing connection between industrial expansion and workforce empowerment. As India’s stainless steel sector continues to grow across infrastructure, transportation, construction, and sustainability-focused applications, the demand for skilled talent is expected to rise significantly. Employment-focused initiatives such as PM-VBRY help create a stronger talent pipeline while ensuring workers gain access to formal employment benefits.
Industry experts believe that workforce development remains essential for maintaining India’s manufacturing competitiveness. Bringing more employees into the organized sector not only improves livelihoods but also strengthens productivity, skill development, and long-term industrial growth.
The participation of Smt Savitri Jindal in the programme reflects the industry’s commitment to supporting national development goals through employment generation and inclusive growth. As India advances toward its Viksit Bharat vision, collaborations between government initiatives and manufacturing leaders are expected to play a crucial role in creating sustainable opportunities for millions of workers across the country.
Reinforcing Rozgar se Viksit Bharat, the programme showcased how employment remains at the heart of India’s economic transformation.
