Corporate Sustainability

“Informed Giving, Responsible Receiving”

Mastek firmly believes in giving back to society. Our CSR arm, Mastek Foundation, was established in the year 2002, 10 years before the term CSR was coined. Under the umbrella of CSR activities, the Mastek group has contributed significantly to the society with a key focus on the improvement of health, education, social infrastructure, and women empowerment specifically in the rural areas.

We matched donations up to INR 50 lakhs, setting a new high for funds raised through this initiative. The entire amount was donated to Malvi Educational and Charitable Trust and Adhyayan Sanstha, contributing to the education of over 3,400 children in Navsari, Sindudurg, Palghar District, Gujarat, and Mumbai, Maharashtra, thereby making a profound difference in their lives.

How are we responding?

Mastek is on a mission to make a meaningful impact, setting an ambitious goal to reach a million lives with our corporate social responsibility initiatives by FY26.

We’ve channeled a substantial part of our philanthropic efforts into education and healthcare, collaborating closely with the government to maximize our contributions. Our dedication to social betterment has not only earned us heartfelt commendation from government officials but has also distinguished us as the recipient of the ‘Best Company for CSR Activities’ accolade in Gujarat. This recognition fuels our commitment to continue driving positive change within the communities we serve.

Social Value in UK

In the UK, we’re crafting a tapestry of social value, interwoven with initiatives that not only address climate change but also enhance health and well-being. Our Green Code initiative has significantly reduced greenhouse gases, directly benefiting our clients and training over 100 employees, representing an investment of both expertise and financial resources. We’ve channeled our technological capabilities into hardware recycling, directing valuable resources back into the community. On the well-being front, our mental health programs have reached over 2,000 individuals, underlining our commitment to supporting not just physical health, but mental resilience too. And while some projects are still shaping up, our existing contributions to charity and community programs echo our dedication to creating a sustainable, supportive future for all.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging

“Embracing Differences & Fostering Belonging”

At Mastek, our collective strength is magnified by the diversity of over 5,000 unique individuals we call ‘Mastekeers.’

We are committed to fostering a culture where unity in diversity thrives, equity is non-negotiable, and fairness is the bedrock of the equal opportunities we provide. It’s a place where inclusion isn’t just a buzzword but a practice—where bringing our authentic selves to work isn’t an act of courage, but a welcomed norm. We’re dedicated to cultivating a workspace that doesn’t just accommodate, but celebrates the rich mosaic of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives.

By actively eliminating unconscious biases, we ensure our ecosystem mirrors the diversity of our teams, clients, and the communities we serve. This reflective diversity is essential, enabling us to finely tune our services to the nuanced needs and expectations of those we serve.

How are we responding?

Mastek aims to achieve gender diversity at 40% by FY26.

At Mastek, we celebrate diversity & inclusion across our workforce, in our communities and partnerships. We have launched the ReShine program to offer job opportunities to women who are looking to make a meaningful career comeback post-maternity. We have also launched a Gender Reassignment policy to make the transition smooth for any individual. Mastek encourages every Mastekeer to reach their full potential with all their uniqueness and whole selves.
