Narayana Murthy Asked Indians to Work 70 Hrs, Now Infosys Seeks Work-Life Balance and Tells Staff No Overtime
- Starting from November 20, 2023, Infosys introduced a mandate for its 323,000 employees to spend a minimum of 10 days per month working onsite at the office.
- This policy and a hybrid work model prompted Infosys to launch an internal campaign urging employees to maintain work-life balance and avoid excessive overtime.
- The campaign involves HR monitoring employees’ working hours, particularly during remote work, and sending individualized emails to those whose average daily hours surpass the typical limit on a regular workweek, advising them to take breaks and disconnect outside office hours.
- This approach contrasts sharply with Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy’s 2023 call for Indians to work 70 hours weekly for national progress, a stance that sparked debate and criticism regarding workplace culture.
- Infosys's new wellness initiative reflects India's shifting corporate culture focused on employee health to prevent burnout and sustain long-term professional performance.
