Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) recognises that true signs of progress are made visible only through CARING—whether its ensuring safety, saving water, reducing wastage or enabling communities—A to Z of an all-encompassing, thoughtful approach to sustainable growth.

CARING A(g) to Z(n) represents the 'holistic' nature of sustainability at HZL, with a word play of ‘A to Z’ that demonstrates Ag (chemical symbol of silver) and Zn (chemical symbol of zinc), which along with lead (chemical symbol is Pb) are our key offerings. The report covers the sustainable growth journey of India’s only and the world’s leading zinc-lead-silver producer during FY 2019.

The impact of HZL’s sustainability initiatives reflect in how we approach growth, how we reduce environmental impact, how we foster community development and how we invest in the progress of our people. The report gradually unfolds each of these aspects through C(Cautious at Work)-A(Augmentin Growth)-R(Responsible Partnerships)-
I(Inclusive Progress)- N(Nurturing the Planet)-G(Growing Together).
