Praj GenX, a subsidiary of Praj Industries, has employed 50 women welders in its manufacturing facility in Mangaluru’s Special Economic Zone.
To promote gender inclusivity in a male-dominated field, Praj GenX collaborated with Fronius welding institute and NITTE University to train young women in welding.
The women welders, known as the 'Rani Chennamma Batch', are provided with a safe and comfortable work environment, advanced personal protective equipment, and women-led security operations.
Praj GenX plans to expand its training initiatives to other high-skill areas and is committed to fostering diversity and inclusion in the manufacturing industry.
