Apollo Tyres says its Chennai, Tamil Nadu and Limda, Gujarat manufacturing plants have achieved the British Safety Council 5-star rating after a comprehensive Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) audit. The assessment reviewed governance, workforce engagement, risk control and continuous improvement. The recognition places both Indian facilities among operations benchmarked against best-practice safety management in 2025.
The British Safety Council’s Five Star Occupational Health and Safety Audit is an independent, quantified review of an organisation’s OH&S management system against best practice. A five-star result indicates robust controls and ongoing improvement across leadership, culture, risk management and performance monitoring.
According to Apollo Tyres, auditors assessed leadership commitment, employee engagement, risk identification and mitigation, incident learning and continuous improvement across the Chennai and Limda plants. The company said both sites were rated at the five-star level following the review.
“We are immensely proud of this achievement. It reflects our unwavering commitment to a strong safety culture, where well-being of our people is at the core of everything we do. This recognition reaffirms that we are not only meeting regulatory standards but consistently striving to set new benchmarks in safety and care,” said Rajeev Kumar Sinha, Chief Manufacturing Officer, Apollo Tyres Ltd.
A British Safety Council 5-star rating provides an externally validated signal of mature risk management and operational discipline. For OEM and replacement-market buyers, strong OH&S governance can reduce supply disruption risks, support social responsibility objectives and align with pre-qualification or tender requirements.
