We recognize that safe and sustainable transportation contributes to the overall experience of our clients and the impact of their journey to our country. Our company therefore endeavors to encourage our clients to consider the most sustainable transport available for their travel route. We encourage our suppliers to work with us and to improve continuously with respect to the policy.
Wherever possible, all staff will pursue the following goals and adhere to the specified principles when purchasing products, materials, and services.
This policy will be part of the Sustainability Policy. The policy applies to the transportation activities conducted by our company and our suppliers.
This policy is effective immediately after approval by the Chief Executive Office and circulation to staff. The policy will be formally reviewed every 2 years to ensure its relevancy. The Managing Director or an officer delegated with such authority must approve any deviations to this policy.
Our sustainable transportation policy has the following core principles:
Considering comfort, efficiency, and pricing our company gives preference to mass transportation/public transportation over private/single transportation. At the same time, we prefer the safest and most comfortable option (e.g. tourist bus companies over local bus companies).
All vehicles should comply with the rules and regulations imposed by the Government of India. Vehicles are regularly and properly maintained and drivers are well taken care of under good labor conditions (minimum wage, reasonable working times, proper breaks, etc.).
The transportation supplier places a high priority on sustainable practices, aiming at minimizing its effect on the surrounding environment and society.
The following considerations should be made in the operation of each of these specific transportation services:
Public buses
Own Vehicles
Vehicles from Third Party
Drivers
Flights
