Welcome to the Godrej One project, an ongoing oral history made by and about the people who work at the Godrej Industries group. This long-running initiative will tell stories of inclusion and allyship from a wide range of our colleagues. Through this, we hope to create a new history of acceptance, change and belonging at our century-old workplace.
If you work at the Godrej Industries group and would like to be featured, or know someone whose story would make a great addition to this project, please let us know by writing to us at godrejdeilab@godrejinds.com.

"These formative experiences, steeped in care and equality, serve as the compass guiding me through my professional life across academia, development, and corporate spheres."

"So I didn't want to give up honestly. I had to chop off my hair, which was waist-length. I had to once again present as male just to survive, unwilling to surrender or seek an easier path. I didn't want to compromise, but for a couple of years, I lived as a man solely to secure employment and sustenance."

Deputy General Manager - Systems, Godrej Agrovet
"The company prioritises its employees' health and well-being above all, recognising its positive impact on productivity."

"People are already inclusive of their own kind; they just need to extend that behaviour to people of all backgrounds."
