Hindustan Zinc Secures Jobs For 5,950 Rural Youth Through Zinc Kaushal Kendra

Hindustan Zinc (NSE: HINDZINC), celebrated International Youth Day by highlighting the landmark achievement of securing jobs for over 5,950 rural youth through flagship CSR programme, Zinc Kaushal Kendra. Notably the programme has provided skill development training for over 7,100 rural youth since its inception in 2019.  Aligned with the theme ‘From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development’, the programme has been instrumental in empowering youth in the company’s operational areas through skill development and entrepreneurship.

Zinc Kaushal Kendra is committed to addressing the pressing issue of youth unemployment by providing market-relevant skills training. The programme focuses on holistic development, enabling young individuals to secure sustainable livelihoods. By forging strong partnerships with industry and educational institutions, the initiative offers intensive short-term courses in the domains of hospitality, micro finance services, business correspondence, sales & customer relationship management and self-entrepreneurship that bridges the gap between academia and the workplace.

The programme has demonstrated remarkable success in transforming lives with a focus on new-age skill development through its Solar PV lab, preparing youth for future demands. The initiative has organised over 100 exposure visits, benefiting more than 1,600 students with hands-on training. It also offers coaching for government exams at Agucha, Kayad and Zawar locations, helping over 250 students pursue public service careers.
Beyond skill development, Hindustan Zinc’s CSR initiatives have impacted 1.9 million people across 3,685 villages. Programmes like Samadhan, Zinc Football Academy, and Zinc Kaushal have skilled 1,30,000 individuals. Additionally, about 1.4 million women and children have been empowered through programmes focused on education, health, water, sanitation, microenterprises and cultural promotion.
