VMware India announces enhanced wellbeing program for employees

VMware, an American cloud computing and virtualization technology company, has announced that it will be enhancing its existing well-being benefits program to equip employees to live a more healthy and balanced life.

Under this program, all employees across offices in India will be eligible for an additional wellbeing allowance of Rs. 29,565 as equitable reimbursement. Employees can also choose to apply the well-being amount to help pay to vaccinate themselves and their family members.

This initiative is the latest offering in VMware’s unique wellbeing program portfolio. As the industry moved to a remote work model last year, VMware revisited some of its policies to ensure that teams had help and resources to help cope with the rigors of the new normal.

As the world embraced the new normal, VMware initiated a pandemic leave policy for its employees, a unique initiative where employees are entitled to 5 days of paid leave, to help employees take some time off during this unusual time.

The company, headquartered in Palo Alto, California, VMware also introduced EPIC2 days, declaring four company-wide holidays throughout the year to help employees switch off and spend time with their families.

Additionally, the company has also introduced new coaching, therapy, and work Life Services (ICAS) program that caters to the mental and emotional wellbeing of not just the employees but also their dependents.

Announcing the extended wellbeing program, Ramkumar Narayanan, VP Technology & MD, VMware India said “At VMware, we believe that true innovation is tied in with an environment where employees can bring in their best selves to work. Balance is key to employee happiness and enabling our employees to live healthy and balanced lives has always been an integral part of our work culture.”

“Given the disruption of last year, we understand that our employees might need some additional support and we have revamped our wellbeing benefits program to do just that. Our people are our biggest strength. And we believe it is our responsibility to establish a work culture that is supportive and prioritizes employee health, both physical and mental,” He added.

Ramkumar also said, “At VMware, the focus remains on creating a culture where people are empowered to bring their best selves to work focusing on relevance, impact, and choice.”
