Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) has become an integral part of the operational strategy of many organizations, particularly in resource-rich states like Odisha, where industrial and mining activities often impact local communities. Odisha Mining Corporation (OMC), a state owned public sector undertaking (PSU) has been actively involved in undertaking various CSR initiatives with the aim of promoting inclusive growth and sustainable development in Odisha. This article provides a comprehensive overview of CSR activities carried out by OMC, focusing on key sectors such as education, healthcare, livelihood promotion, infrastructure development, environmental protection, and empowerment of marginalized communities. Special attention is given to OMC’s efforts in supporting tribal welfare, skill development programs providing scholarship, creating safe drinking water system, improving rural health care facilities, and promoting environmental sustainability through afforestation and conservation initiatives. The study highlights how OMC’s CSR interventions have contributed towards improving the socio-economic conditions of people residing in mining affected and backward regions of Odisha, reflecting the corporation’s commitment towards responsible mining and community development.
