For the PATTON Group, success is measured by how well we fulfil our economic, environmental and social responsibility. This “triple-bottom-line” accountability lies at the heart of our group, and includes the interest of all our stakeholders – shareholders, customers, employees, and the community at large. Corporate social responsibility enriches the health of a corporate and it is the duty of every responsible corporate house to proactively serve society and ameliorate the social condition. Businesses and corporate conglomerates don’t exist in isolation. Employees, customers, suppliers and the local community are all affected by the business. Therefore, it is important to comprehend how one’s business impacts the surrounding social ecosystem. We have always followed the motto business beyond profits and are grateful to the almighty for making us fortunate enough to make a difference in people’s lives. Our CSR ventures are a way of living our values as conscious corporate citizens. Every organization is a part of society and one cannot think of running a business venture without the help and support of the community. To repay this support, it is the responsibility of corporate houses to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce, their families, the local community, and society at large. The sense of fulfilment that comes from serving the society to which we belong is incomparable.
