Impact Stories

The impact we create. The excellence we inspire.

Read a few of our stories as we partner in the building Safety Culture of different organisations as a Safety, ESG and Sustainability Consultant Company and an Advisory Firm.

The internationally reputed company is a major construction, mining and power solutions provider with more than 25 locations in India. Their major challenge was working with multiple standards and legal requirements of different stakeholders.


We started with the development of an inhouse standard and guideline which was implemented across the locations.

We customized our scored assessment protocol ‘Protosafe’ as per their requirements and developed a three year plan. The safety performance scorecard provided the required guidelines to the management for improvement. Our recommendations facilitated the actions.
A definite positive trend of improvements observed in the subsequent years.

The word Ergonomic has been derived from two Greek words, ‘ergon’ meaning work, and ‘nomoi’ meaning natural laws. When combined, they create a word meaning the science of work and a person’s relationship to that work.

Ergonomics is primarily the science of fitting the work to the user instead of forcing the user to fit in the work. It is defined as the study of how people work in their environment.
