Infosys asks staff to work from office 10 days a month

IT company Infosys has instructed select employees in entry to mid-level positions to work from office for a minimum of ten days a month, as it strengthens its return to office and hybrid work model. The move follows other IT firms including Wipro, Capgemini, and LTIMindtree nudging their employees to work from office on a regular basis. This could mark the end of the work-from-home flexibility that the Indian tech sector had adopted during the pandemic.

LTI Mindtree, one of India's largest IT services companies, has implemented a policy that links employee leave to their return to the office. The policy, called "Rhythm," categorizes employees into three groups based on their work nature and assigns them to work from the office for a certain number of days each week. In case of non-compliance, employees may lose leave days, and continuous violations could result in stricter disciplinary action. Other IT services companies in India have also been implementing similar policies to encourage employees to return to the office.

Infosys employees will now be required to be in the office 3 days a week

Infosys employees will be required to work at the office for at least three days a week, as the company seeks to restore regular office routines.

While exceptions will be made for medical reasons, the company expects employees to resume regular office attendance. Infosys is also reinstating charges for bus services and health club facilities. This directive would revive the attendance system before the pandemic-induced lockdown in early 2020.

Go to the office 4 to 5 times a week if you're young and want to score a promotion, says a corporate leader

PricewaterhouseCoopers UK Chair, Kevin Ellis, advises junior staff to be present in the office four to five days a week for career success. With the rise of AI taking over tasks previously handled by junior staff, face time and office collaboration become crucial. However, balancing remote work has been challenging post-COVID-19. Other corporate leaders, such as JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon and Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, also encourage young employees to be physically present for mentorship opportunities. A US survey indicates that remote workers are less likely to receive promotions and raises. The reception of this advice among Gen Z is uncertain as they remain undecided about remote work.
