Last week, IT major, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) issued a final notice to remote-working employees and asked them to resume work from the office starting in March.

The company also cautioned that there may be consequences if they do not comply. The NG Subramaniam Chief Operating Officer explained that remote working cannot help an organisation build a great culture.

Recently, talking to TOI, NG Subramaniam, the Chief Operating Officer said, “We are very clear that we have to get our original culture back. Around 40,000 employees joined us online and quit online without any offline interaction during the pandemic, and that kind of situation cannot be helpful to an organization.”

“We are not in a business where employees use TCS as a launch pad. Remote working cannot help an organization build a great culture”, NG Subramaniam added.

“We are exercising patience but have taken a principled stand that employees have to get back to offices. We have sent employees the final communication on this, and if they do not, there will be consequences to face,” he said.

Moreover, currently the company’s 65% of employees work from office 3-5 days a week.

Recently, CEO and MD K Krithivasan told to Money Control during the WEF conference 2024 “Our return to office policy worked well. Almost 65 percent of the associates are working from the office at least for three to five days. And we are improving the numbers.”

“We are sending positive incentives for them to come back to office on all five days. I’m sure we’ll get there most of the employees working from office in the next couple of quarters,” he added.

Earlier, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) ended the hybrid work policy and asked its employees to work from the office 5 days a week from October 1, 2023 onwards. Until October 1, employees were attending the office for three days a week.

TCS headcount dropped by 5,680 employees workforce stood at 603,305 as of December 31 with attrition at 13.3% for the last twelve months. The company’s workforce stood at 608,985 as of September 30, reported a dip of 6333 employees from the last quarter.
