Aditya Birla Group Will Offer UL EHS Sustainability Courses to 120,000 Employees across 40 Countries


UL EHS Sustainability, the industry’s leading provider of workplace health and safety solutions, today announced an extensive course licensing partnership with Aditya Birla Group, the third largest conglomerate in India. The Aditya Birla Group, a conglomerate the size of a Fortune 500 company with global holdings in non-ferrous metal manufacturing, cement, telecommunications, textiles, and finance, will use UL’s training library to help ensure that its 120,000 employees worldwide maintain safe workplace practices.

UL’s research has shown that multinational companies often struggle with maintaining a consistent quality of safety training across international worksites. By having access not only to the English language version but to the hundreds of translated courses available through UL EHS Sustainability, the Aditya Birla Group will be able to assign relevant training to a variety of sites and businesses while ensuring the quality of content and language.     

“The Aditya Birla Group has a long-standing reputation as a top company for leadership," said Mark Ward, general manager and vice president of UL EHS Sustainability. “One mark of world-class leadership is an understanding that your human assets are your most important key in a robust bottom line. Keeping workers healthy, safe, and on-the-job in every country helps companies grow and prosper. We are delighted to partner with the Aditya Birla Group on this important initiative.”

“UL’s commitment to increasing safety awareness in India is further solidified with the important partnership with Aditya Birla,” said Bill Conran, UL EHS Sustainability vice president for global strategy and business development. “From preventing unintentional injury in children with UL’s Safety Smart to heightening worker awareness of hazards in the workplace with modern, applicable, training courseware, our mission of 'working for a safer world' is further realized, today.”
