Moreover, the company in partnership with local universities has also created courses for its different manufacturing plants to upskill its workforce. The company revealed that its employees had invested over 3,40,000 hours in specialised training and development.
Moreover, Tata Motors is working on strengthening its workforce and it has also worked on a full-time ‘Apprenticeship Programme’. This program focuses on upskilling its employees.
Additionally, Tata Motors is currently also hiring for various roles. The company has shared the information on LinkedIn.
