As part of its diversity and inclusion focus, the programme offers a 50 per cent training fee concession for women candidates, widening access to skilled industrial roles. To date, the Material Handling Equipment business has trained and certified over 3,500 operators nationwide and plans to upskill an additional 500 operators by FY26.
Commenting on the initiative, Anil Lingayat, Business Head, Material Handling Equipment business, Godrej Enterprises Group, said the centre creates a structured pipeline of job-ready, safety-trained operators to support sustained growth in manufacturing and logistics.
