  9. INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC India has been traditionally vulnerable to natural disasters on account of its unique geo-climatic conditions. Floods, droughts, cyclones, earthquakes and landslides have been recurrent phenomenon. • About 60% of the landmass is prone to earthquakes of various intensities; • over 40 million hectares is prone to floods; • about 8% of the total area is prone to cyclones and • 68% of the area is susceptible to drought. In the decade 1990-2000, an average of about 4344 people lost their lives and about 30 million people were affected by disasters every year.

  10. The involvement and association of the corporate sector with national risk reduction and risk management initiatives and with dissemination of appropriate and practical structural and non-structural disaster prevention and mitigation measures necessary for their safe and disaster-free functioning has been accorded priority as part of a strategy. For long, the corporate sector had been viewed as a separate entity and the existence of corporate sector is today intimately intertwined with the safety and well-being of the society.

  11. ROLE OF CORPORATE SECTOR • Awareness generation • Disaster preparedness • Mitigation planning through sensitization In India, the contribution of the corporate sector has been notable especially in the aftermath of the devastating super-cyclone in Orissa in 1999 and the Bhuj Earthquake (Gujarat) in 2001.

  12. The industrial and corporate organizations like CII, FICCI, the PHD Chambers of Commerce and Industry and other industry and area-specific manufacturers and traders associations have been in the forefront of providing much-needed succor to the affected populace for ameliorating their suffering.

  13. CONTRIBUTION OF CII The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), with a direct membership base of nearly five thousand industrial and corporate houses & an indirect associate membership of around fifty thousand companies from 283 national and regional sectoral associations, was the first industry organization to constitute a Disaster Management Committee in May 2001 as part of its corporate set-up to advise and assist its member industries in initiating disaster risk reduction steps to insulate industrial establishments, infrastructure and processes from the vagaries and damaging potential of natural and man-made (industrial/technological) disasters.

  14. Apart form addressing natural disasters, CII has established an Environment Management Division (EMD) involved in research and propagation of environmentally sound industrial processes • Ankleshwar Environment Preservation Society • Partnership with Govt. initiatives and development organisations like the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)

  15. CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY : The corporates always look for ways and means to enhance the brand value of their company and their products. By integrating CSR into its business strategy as a core value, the corporates not only make a significant contribution to a better society but are also recognized for doing so. This has obvious benefits for the company. In fact, enormous rewards are there both for the business/industrial community as well as the society.

  16. Managing risk more efficiently • Minimizing the negative impact of its activities on the environment and its resources; • Accountability to all stakeholders through dialogue and transparency • Good governance structure and upholding the highest standards and ethics while conducting business.

  17. Contribution of INDIA INC to Tsunami Disaster Relief : • The CII has set up “Tsunami Relief Fund” and has activated helpline offices in Delhi, Chennai and Hyderabad. It has also set up an Outreach Inc. office in Virginia, USA to mobilize resources. • The Confederation is in touch with the Central and State (Provincial) Governments and is collecting feedback on the extent of damage and the immediate requirements of the affected people. • Other activities : • Provision of drinking water to affected people in Andman & Nicobar islands.

  18. Light trucks, generators, pumps and other industrial equipment has also been sent. • CII has also deputed volunteers to manage distribution of relief materials through its warehouses.

  19. CONCLUSION: Disaster Management being an all-encompassing and multi-disciplinary activity spanning across all sectors of development, a coordinated action in conjunction with all stakeholders including the corporate sector is a sine qua non for overcoming the vulnerabilities and minimizing the risks. The objective of disaster management initiatives is to consciously move towards strengthening the national capabilities in accordance with the status acquired by India as a self-sufficient and self respecting nation well-positioned to mount an effective and substantive disaster response and to take care of the concerns vis-à-vis disaster management across different sectors.
