TECHNOLOGY major Infosys will soon mandate employees to work from the office for at least 10 days a month, The Economic Times has reported.
This change, effective from March 10, is aimed at increasing office attendance, which witnessed a significant decline post the Covid-19 pandemic.
The software services firm will implement the new system through a mobile application where employees are required to mark their physical presence at designated office locations.
Work-from-home requests will no longer be automatically approved and depend on the project’s needs.
The company said the new move will foster better collaboration between teams while maintaining flexible working hours for employees.
After the pandemic, Infosys launched the return-to-office programme in November, 2023, which designated specific weeks per quarter for full team presence.
This shift was driven by factors including economic slowdown, concerns about employee moonlighting, and the need to strengthen workplace culture.
Infosys rival Tata Consultancy Services has mandated a five-day office attendance policy and linked variable pay to it, while Wipro employees need to attend three days a week.
