| ABOUT US |
| We provide our employees and their families with on site housing, a hospital with a qualified doctor, crèches for the very young, two junior schools with qualified teachers and of course a work place environment that brings out the best in each and every individual at every level. In return, our employees have responded with a level of motivation, dedication, loyalty and a passion for excellence that is second to none in the industry. This in turn, has resulted in our people taking ownership, personal responsibility and self accountability for the quality of the products they proudly produce. |
| The Kelagur Mathias Credo: People First! |
As the images below show, the priority at the Kelagur Mathias Plantations is first and foremost a life long investment in people. We are a family community and we have a model plantation that is not only a workplace but a home to all employees. To this end there are: Homes with running water, a hospital with a qualified doctor, a primary school with trained teachers, 3 crèches for the very young, a number of recreation facilities, a place of worship to all religious people.
The employees are given a generous financial package that includes a bonus, gratuity, health insurance, educational loans, loans for emergency situations, scholarships for young adults who would like to pursue further education, and a provident fund plan in which savings are matched up to 12% of their salary.
The Education Trust for our employees is the envy of the industry. The Kelagur Mathias Education Trust has enabled employees' children to become lawyers, doctors, national athletes, accountants and even judges!
We are the major employer in this relatively remote rural Malnad region of India, giving hope and opportunities to thousands of people who would have otherwise have severely limited employment opportunities.
