Infosys reopens offices in India

According to a memo released by Infosys, the IT & Consulting company has shared with its employees that they could resume 'work from office'.

In its memo, Infosys said the country's safety situation seems to be improving, with growing vaccination coverage. The company said it had been operating in emergency mode for months but noted that the situation in the country was now improving.

"We have been getting requests from certain accounts to allow their team members to work from Infosys campuses. In addition, some of our employees have also been asking to come back and start working from the office, as a personal preference."

After reporting results last week, Infosys executives told analysts that roughly 99% of its staff was working from home, and the company would make efforts to get "more and more people to come to office" over the next couple of quarters.

Other companies such as Wipro have said they will wait until September to get staff back to work.

Recently, according to a study, many companies are willing to bring at least 30 percent of the employees back to the office. The companies are preparing to implement a hybrid workforce model, wherein some employees will work from home and some will work from the offices.

Even the Telangana government is in talks with industry leaders and is giving confidence to companies about the preparedness of the government to handle any sort of anomaly.
