The growth of the energy and power industry in India is happening at an unparalleled rate. The energy and power sector is critical to the development of India, as it includes thermal and hydroelectric generation as well as solar energy parks, wind systems, and Smart grids.

Managing the workforce for such projects does not lend itself to traditional HR methods; therefore, our designed HR Services for Power Industry companies are structured accordingly. Each service is tailored to the specific requirements of the project, including having a strong knowledge of how each type of power generating plant operates, how regulatory bodies have imposed regulations/policies, which skill sets are relevant for various positions within the project, and how to manage multiple locations.

Adler provides complete HR Services for Power & Energy companies throughout India, with a full complement of resources which includes recruitment, compliance management, workforce planning, and payroll, all structured under one unified system.

Understanding the HR Challenges in the Power Industry

The power industry operates distinctly from most sectors. There are HR management challenges that face this industry, which include:

  • Rotating schedule shifts
  • High-risk engineering/technical positions

  • Remote project/plant locations
  • Workforce contracts/projects-based

If there is no formalized HR Management for Power and Energy Operations, overall stability for operational continuity and compliance will be jeopardized.
