Integrated Thinking at Hindustan Zinc

Our value creation process and framework are driven by active consideration of all the resources (six capitals) and relationships (stakeholders). We are cognisant of the importance of understanding their interconnectedness and interdependencies for sustained long-term and inclusive value creation. Such value creation extends beyond the Company’s financial capital and its shareholders, debenture and other security holders, and encompasses a holistic cogitation of all our resources, relationships, material issues and strategic priorities. This integrated thinking approach facilitates us in working continually towards our mission to “Enhance stakeholder value through exploration, innovation, operational excellence, safety and sustainability”. It leads to integrated decision-making and actions for propelling business success, while creating shared value for all stakeholders in a safer and more sustainable environment.
