IT firm Wipro is allowing its employees who are in the leadership roles to return to office from today. At present, employees will come to the office twice a week.
In a tweet, Chairman of Wipro, Rishad Premji wrote, “After 18 long months, our leaders @Wipro are coming back to the office starting tomorrow (twice a week). All fully vaccinated, all ready to go – safely and socially distanced! We will watch this closely.”
Premji also shared a video on the COVID-19-related safety protocols, including temperature checks and QR code scans, that have been put in place at the Wipro office.
“Beginning 13 September, fully vaccinated employees in leadership roles will return to work from offices in India, twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays).” “Other employees will continue working remotely until 31 October,” Wipro said in a statement.
In the company’s annual report, Premji has said that the company’s business continuity plans was triggered to quickly enable remote working as the pandemic broke out, and less than three per cent of its global workforce was working from office.
“We have settled well into this new way of working and have continued to make our customers successful. We enjoy their confidence, and I have no doubt that a hybrid model may well be how we work in the future,” he had said.
