Grievance Mechanism

Ampyr has a robust grievance mechanism to record and resolve complaints both internally and externally. Stakeholders receive periodic training on the process, and public disclosures ensure awareness through project boards, newspaper ads, and more. Grievances, whether oral or written, are recorded by a designated coordinator at each site, reviewed, investigated, and resolved per the project’s ESMS. Data is monitored to track grievances by gender and identify patterns, systemic issues, and community feedback. Click here to read our full ESG policy for India.
