NLC, a Navratna PSU<br />
under Ministry of Coal<br />
is driven by over 17300<br />
dedicated employees and 10000<br />
contract workmen to grow and<br />
develop and thrive in a dynamic<br />
environment, with open plan<br />
working space for everyone. NLC<br />
during 2012-13 has surpassed all<br />
records on production and profits<br />
since inception, thanks to its<br />
dedicated and motivated work<br />
force and company’s innovative<br />
practices.<br />
NLC has been consciously updating<br />
itself with the transformation<br />
and in the forefront in Innovative<br />
Practices primarily to ensure<br />
sustainable growth, high performance<br />
and continued success. In<br />

skill upgradation and knowledge<br />

NLC believes that strategic advantage<br />
to the Organisation<br />
comes only from the core developments<br />
and honing the skills<br />
of the employees working in<br />
it. Training & <strong>Development</strong> is<br />
therefore an inevitable part to<br />
keep pace with the changing scenario<br />
in Technology, thrust on<br />

and better Management of<br />
the Human Resources.<br />
