Capgemini tweaks its leave policy in India amid coronavirus lockdown
According to a Business Standard Report, firm Capgemini has tweaked its leave policy in India temporarily apart from deferring increments and promotions of senior-level employees by one quarter.
Capgemini India said, We had tweaked leave accumulation only up to Q2 (FY21) end, and only as an interim measure. “Our overall leave policy for the rest of the year remains unchanged and employees can continue to accrue leave according to the policy,” according to BS repot.
“Capgemini has reset all earned leaves of the employees to 15 to compensate for business loss,” the Maharashtra unit of FITE has alleged on Twitter. “On one end, Nasscom is asking for relief for firms, on the other firms are proactively cutting employees’ hard-earned leaves,” it added.
