Gurugram, 17th September 2026: Carrier India, Carrier India, a part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions, today announced the launch of the Carrier ALLWAYS Community Program, a corporate social responsibility initiative focused on building awareness and preparedness among outdoor workers who are exposed to extreme weather conditions such as heat waves, heavy rainfall, cold waves and poor air quality.
As a pilot, the program is being rolled out in Gurugram, in association with United Way Delhi as the initiative’s implementation partner. The first phase focuses on the city’s active fleet of delivery riders, who spend extended hours outdoors, of whom approximately 5,000 to 6,000 are on the road daily.
At the heart of the pilot is a combination of on-ground awareness and practical support. Carrier is distributing 5,000 protective kits to participating workers, each containing everyday essentials such as a reusable water bottle, electrolyte sachets, wet wipes, sanitizer, and other weather-appropriate protective items designed to support hydration, hygiene, comfort, and well-being during long hours outdoors.
The program aims to help workers recognize early signs of heat stress and other weather-related health risks, understand preventive measures, and adopt safer practices during periods of extreme heat, heavy rainfall, cold waves, and poor air quality.
“Those who keep our cities moving spend their working days exposed to the elements, and protecting people from the impact of extreme weather is at the heart of what we do,” said Sundaresan Narayanan, Managing Director, Climate Solutions India. “Through the ALLWAYS Community Program, Carrier India is combining awareness with simple, practical support to help frontline workers stay safe. It is a natural extension of our purpose – enhancing the lives we live and the world we share.”
Carrier India intends to explore expanding the program to include other outdoor service communities, and to extend its reach across seasons and geographies.
The ALLWAYS Community Program reflects Carrier India’s broader focus on climate resilience, community welfare and healthier environments, and its ongoing efforts to create meaningful, real-world impact in the communities where it operates.
