Infosys CEO Salil Parekh has said that some clients have been demanding that their projects be handled from the office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"'Some'<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Company policy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is despite the company offering flexibility in terms of remote work options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it has ended work from home for employees in its US and Canada offices, mandating a five-day office workweek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the company\u2019s recent annual general meeting (AGM), a shareholder brought up the future of remote work at Infosys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Client demand<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since certain clients require employees to work from the office, there are teams and employees working on-site within the campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have a flexible approach for employees. We are making sure that the employees have the ability to work from home or work hybrid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In some cases where clients are requiring it. We have employees and teams that are working within the campus,” Parekh was quoted <\/a>as saying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broader vision<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parekh then spoke <\/a>of the importance of social capital and the need for people to connect with each other to facilitate new initiatives and training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“On a long term basis, we see a mix <\/a>of where people will work, where there will be a need for increased social capital to connect with people to work with teams to do a new work,” Parekh said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CFO Nilanjan Roy shared Parekh\u2019s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said, \u201cWe encourage people to come to work a few days and we believe that increases our social capital. I think a big portion of this depends upon our client requirements and if clients insist, then employees come in to work.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

US and Canada offices<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has ended work from home for employees in its US and Canada offices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They have been asked to work from office five days a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If they want to work remotely, they will have to take special permission or risk disciplinary action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This work policy, however, is not applicable to the company\u2019s India offices.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three-phase plan<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year, Infosys implemented a three-phase plan in India to transition from remote work to office work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the first phase, employees were allowed to come to office twice a week as they wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the second phase, employees had the option to either relocate to a different branch or request a transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the third phase, Infosys developed a hybrid-work policy based on feedback from previous stages.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
