CSR

Corporate Social Responsibility

Building components responsibly: for the people on our lines, the community around our plant and the industry we have served since 1983.

Our commitment

What is good for our people is good for our business.

At Shaheen Automotive, responsibility starts on our own shop floor. For more than four decades we have grown alongside Pakistan's automotive industry, and we believe a manufacturer is only as strong as the people who run its lines, the community around its plant and the environment it operates in.

Our approach to corporate social responsibility is practical: keep every operator safe, keep building their skills, manage our environmental impact, and keep high-value component manufacturing here in Pakistan.

Workplace health & safety

Safety comes first on every line. Our press shop is a designated hard hat and safety glasses area, and operators are equipped with the protective gear their station requires before a single stroke is run.

  • Hard hats, safety glasses, gloves and high-visibility vests on press lines
  • Marked PPE zones and safety signage across the shop floor
  • Guarded and cordoned-off equipment during setup and maintenance

Training & skills development

Ongoing training is part of our mission. Our team takes part in supplier development programmes run by our OEM customers, bringing modern manufacturing and management practice back to the shop floor.

  • Factory management training with Pak Suzuki Motor Co. (2017)
  • Value analysis & value engineering training with Pak Suzuki (2015)
  • On-the-job skill building across stamping, welding and pipe bending

Environmental responsibility

We work to reduce the environmental footprint of our operations, guided by an ISO 14001 environmental management system alongside our ISO 9001 quality system.

  • ISO 14001 environmental management framework
  • Material yield improvement activities, recognised by Pak Suzuki in 2013
  • Organised storage and housekeeping across the plant

Supporting local industry

Every part we make is a part that does not need to be imported. By manufacturing more than 350 components in Karachi, we help localise Pakistan's automotive supply chain and create skilled industrial jobs.

  • Local manufacturing for Pakistan's leading automotive and appliance OEMs
  • Active participant in OEM vendor and supplier conventions since 2000
  • Skilled employment in stamping, welding, machining and assembly
