Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has discontinued remote work for the majority of its employees, requiring them to be present in the office on a five-day-a-week basis. This shift poses a novel experience for those who commenced their employment during the pandemic, and TCS is actively supporting their integration into the workplace. Reportedly, as part of this effort, TCS has instructed all employees to adhere to the company’s dress code when working from the office.
According to a report by Moneycontrol, in a recent mail to employees, Milind Lakkad, chief human resource officer at TCS, reminded associates to follow the dress code policy.
“This is key to creating the right impact with stakeholders globally. The dress code policy gives clear guidance on the right attire while carrying out official responsibilities and duties,” the email read.
“A large number of our associates have joined us in the last two years and have been working in a virtual or hybrid mode, and it is our responsibility to ensure they are well integrated – working from the office is key to internalise the TCS values and the TCS way,” it said. Moneycontrol reported citing another report.
Here is the dress code policy that all TCS associates are expected to follow as per the email:
