Shyam Metalics & Energy Ltd.

Our place is over in Pandoli, right opposite the Mhadupura Gate. It’s a big industrial area, so it’s never really quiet around here. At Shyam Metalics & Energy Ltd., there is always the sound of metal moving or engines running somewhere in the background. We have been at this location for a while, and the dust from the road outside usually finds its way into the office no matter how many times we sweep. It is a heavy kind of work. We spend a lot of time looking at gauges and making sure the machinery is doing what it is supposed to. It’s not the kind of job where you wear a suit. Most of us are in boots and work clothes that have seen better days. When the sun hits the metal in the yard, it gets incredibly hot, so we take our breaks in the shade of the main building. There is a lot of coordination involved in getting things moved in and out of the gate, and sometimes the traffic on the main road makes things a bit slow. We just deal with it. It’s a practical business. We don't have fancy decorations on the walls, just calendars and safety signs that have been there for years. We show up, do the shifts, and make sure the energy and metal parts are handled right. It’s honest, hard work that keeps us going through the week.
