'9.15 hrs a day is enough': Infosys nudges staff on balance after Murthy's 70-hour workweek remark

Infosys has begun advising employees to stick to a standard 9.15-hour workday, especially while working remotely, to support better work-life balance and health. This comes amid national debate over long working hours following Infosys founder Narayana Murthy's 70-hour workweek remark. HR emails reviewed by The Economic Times highlight health risks linked to overwork and urge employees to take regular breaks. The initiative marks a proactive step by Infosys to address remote work stress and promote well-being.
