Work from home: Government announcement..! All companies in this state will have to declare work from home, know the reason

Bharatiya Janata Party’s Bengaluru Central MP PC Mohan asked IT companies to consider allowing their employees to work from home.

Work from home: The continuous rain in Bengaluru, known as the Silicon Valley of India, has not only disrupted the lives of the common people there, but walking on the roads is also no less than a problem. From Sunday to Monday, there has been a rainfall of 105.5 mm in just 24 hours, which is the highest since the year 2011.

In such a situation, PC Mohan, MP from Bengaluru Central of the Bharatiya Janata Party, asked IT companies to consider giving work from home to their employees. Taking the help of his microblogging site X, he has said that all companies including Infosys should compulsorily work from home for two days due to rain.

Work from home due to rain

Looking at the situation in Bengaluru due to rain, IT firm Cognizant also asked to work from home on May 20. This US company has about 40 thousand employees in Bengaluru. On the other hand, Infosys has already adopted a three-day work from home policy. In such a situation, many employees have opted to work from home due to bad weather.

All companies in Bengaluru, including Infosys, must declare two days of work from home due to rains.
