Larsen & Toubro Limited, Ecc Division

We’re currently based out of the staff housing at the RPL Site in Jamnagar. It’s part of the Moty Cavadi area. Even though some of the mail says Ahmedabad, we are definitely on the ground here in Jamnagar. Living and working in staff housing means the work never really stops. You’re always around the people you work with. The ECC Division here is basically embedded right where the action is. It’s a dusty, industrial environment, but that’s where we need to be. The office space is simple—just a converted room in the housing complex where we keep the site records and the duty rosters. It’s not glamorous. There’s sand that gets into everything no matter how much you clean. We spend our evenings talking about the day’s progress and our mornings planning the next shift. It’s a very communal way to work. There isn’t any corporate polish here. We wear our work boots inside and the chairs are a bit worn out. But it works for us. We’re here to see the project through, and being right on-site at Moty Cavadi makes that easier. It’s a long way from a typical city office, but it feels more honest this way. We deal with the heat and the wind and just keep pushing forward with the daily grind of the construction site. It is just life in the housing camp.
