Job Security & Safety even in the time of crisis: Promises the Managing Director of S&IB

Over two decades, S&IB has been deeply engaged in community work. The present COVID-19 situation has called all corporate citizens to take an effort in helping the government to fight against this pandemic to save the nation and its people. The Managing Director of S&IB contributed an amount of 5 lakh rupees to the Chief Minister Emergency Relief Fund and an amount of 50,000 rupees to the Ramkrishna Math. Furthermore, the administrative staffs of the company voluntarily contributed their one day’s salary to a relief fund to help those struggling with uncertainty & poverty.

None of my employees will have salary cuts or lay-offs.
