Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report
Inclusion Forum established
The purpose of the Inclusion Forum is to provide governance and oversight on inclusion efforts and enhance brand
visibility. It was launched in May 2024 with representation across business lines and demographic filters, sponsored
by the MD and CEO. It played an instrumental role in initiating and sustaining key initiatives such as reverse mentoring,
promoting allyship through the People Resource Group (PRG) and understanding digital accessibility of Crisil’s ecosystem.
Many of the members participated in industry forums globally.

Initiatives for accessibility
We have undertaken a comprehensive plan to ensure universal access to Crisil’s ecosystem - both digital and physical. An
audit, as per compliance requirements, has been initiated at select locations and reports have been analysed for closing
gaps. All our offices are provided with security and safety systems to ensure safety of people in Crisil. Digital platforms
at Crisil have been vetted for web accessibility standards and aim to be compliant as per Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines (WCAG). Employees have been trained on accessible content creation. Sensitisation for disability inclusion
was gamified through experiential learning booths at our offices. It evoked great response from employees.
