Community Involvement in India

Delivering quality and value to our customers has always been Bechtel’s priority, but our commitment also extends to improving the standard of living and quality of life of the communities where we do business. We work with employees and communities to improve the civic, economic, educational, and social environment.

Here are some examples:

Charity giving

An active participation from New Delhi employees yields a substantial amount of material such as clothes, toys, and books for various organizations like GOONJ and MADHOK, which helps marginalized children. We have also adopted a village for helping the handicapped.

Bechtel volunteers go to school: Earthquake safety

Employees of Bechtel in New Delhi are volunteering to work with GeoHazards International (GHI), a California-based non-profit organization, in a pilot project to improve earthquake safety in Gurgaon schools. The project will include creating basic awareness of earthquake safety amongst the staff and students of the selected school, identifying and fixing falling hazards in and around the school buildings, and preparation and testing of an earthquake preparedness plan for the school.
