ExxonMobil Lubricants has launched Mechanic Unnati – a market-focused program aimed at the development of commercial vehicle mechanics in India.
The program is scheduled to run between October 1 and December 31, 2016, on a pan-national basis.
Mechanic Unnati is structured as a rewards and incentive program to recognise every mechanic’s individual contribution. The top 50 mechanics chosen according to the program’s guiding parameters will receive training on new generation engine technologies, and their workshops could be upgraded to become Mobil Service Centres.
Mechanic Unnati’s philosophy is aligned with the Government of India’s Skilling India and the Automotive Mission Plan 2016, which highlights that availability of trained manpower will be a key factor in the growth of the Indian automotive sector – one of the largest and fastest growing in the world.
Deepankar Banerjee, the newly-appointed chief executive officer of ExxonMobil’s lubricants business in India, said at the program’s launch, “ExxonMobil sees many opportunities for the development of expertise and people in the automotive sector. We are excited to bring our product technology leadership and expertise to support this growth. We believe in synergies through world-class partnerships with leading original equipment manufacturers and component builders, and also in developing local human capital. The Mechanic Unnati program is also a reaffirmation of our commitment to our end-customers and consumers.”
For a while now, Mobil has run a successful campaign called Udaan, aimed at educating and creating awareness on safety, lubrication fundamentals and inventory management by providing training to Mobil retailers, mechanics and Mobil 1 car care outlet personnel across India.
In 2015, the revamped Udaan program had four brand new training buses inducted into the fleet, with one bus earmarked for each region for enhanced coverage in all markets.
