INDIA NEWS | Thu, 30 Jun 2022, 12:49AM IST Corporate India is sticking to its current work mode strategy with those that have opened offices keeping their doors open for employees despite Covid-19 infections rising across the country once again. Companies such as Panasonic and NTT Data Payment Services continue to have most of their employees coming to offices while others like ITC, Flipkart, Wipro, TCS and Deloitte are following a hybrid work model. "While we have opened up our offices across locations, we continue to operate a hybrid model with employees having the flexibility to work from home up to 2 days in a week, with prior approval," said Amitav Mukherji, head of corporate human resources at ITC Ltd. But in case of any extenuating circumstances, employees can apply to work from home for a longer duration, he added. Flipkart has reopened its corporate office in phases and has adopted a hybrid model beginning March 2022 with different teams of employees working remotely and from office on different days of the week. 92555682"By maintaining a flexible approach, we are able to customise solutions based on employee needs - for example, for certain types of roles and based on talent density, we have opened up additional offices in multiple locations across the country," said Krishna Raghavan, chief people officer at the ecommerce marketplace. "We will continue to remain flexible in our approach and modify our model as needed based on both employee needs and external factors at Flipkart." Companies are not letting their guard down with strict protocols at offices, tracking cases, and organising or reimbursing for boosters for staff. Panasonic India is organising a vaccination drive for booster shots for employees while Deloitte is providing reimbursements for booster dose. "We are continuing to exercise caution at work, be it social distancing or, following regular safety protocols," said Adarsh Mishra, chief HR officer at Panasonic India. "We have also installed Coronaguard filters as an added safety measure, in our office premises. We continue to encourage hybrid meetings to help employees manage their daily schedule smoothly."At Deloitte, employees are coming to office only on the days prescribed by their team's requirements and must book seats on an internal app. "This is our preferred mode of working for now," SV Nathan, partner and chief talent officer at the professional services firm told ET. NTT Data Payment Services, where almost all the employees were operating from office till recent rise in Covid-19 cases, is "currently operating at 50-60% capacity", its CEO Dewang Neralla said. The country's top IT services company TCS is adopting a 25/25 model where no more than 25% of its associates will work from an office at any given point in time, and they need not spend more than 25% of their time in the office. "But an important part of the journey to the 25/25 model is to first bring people back to physical offices and gradually transition into the hybrid work model," a TCS spokesperson told ET in an emailed response. TCS has set up agile work seats worldwide, which allow its employees to work and engage with team members from any TCS office. It has also set up occasional operating zones (OOZ) and hot desks.

INDIA NEWS | Wed, 29 Jun 2022, 11:58PM IST In a deft diplomatic move, India worked with China to block entry of Pakistan to BRICS plus event last Friday. Pakistan, in a surprise move, made attempts to enter the BRICS outreach event for emergng economies that included Algeria, Argentina, Cambodia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Fiji, Indonesia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Senegal, Uzbekistan, Malaysia, and Thailand.However, India moved swiftly to block Islamabad. As the BRICS chair for 2022, China reportedly agreed to India, and prevented the entry of its all-weather ally" to the BRICS outreach event, which was addressed by PM Narendra Modi. New Delhis position was also reportedly backed by Russia, ET has learnt.It may be recalled that the Indian envoy to China met Foreign Minister Wang Yi ahead of the BRICS Summit to discuss a slew of bilateral and international issues.Interestingly, Pakistan doesnt fit into the category of emerging markets unlike other invitees to BRICS meet and its economy is staring at a major crisis like that of Sri Lanka. Pakistan may even default on loan repayments.In a statement, the Pakistani Foreign Office Monday said: We have noted that this year a High-level Dialogue on Global Development was held as a BRICS side event in which a number of developing and emerging economies were invited Regrettably, one member (of BRICS) blocked Pakistans participation."When Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian was asked about the issue by the staterun Associated Press of Pakistan at a regular news briefing on Monday, he replied the decision to hold the high-level dialogue was based on consultation among BRICS countries, but did not elaborate.Islamabad is reportedly upset with Chinas position to block its entry into BRICS. Beijing has been frustrated with how governments in Pakistan have mishandled the countrys economy, slowing down the progress of projects related to China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).There are negotiations going on between Islamabad and the International Monetary Fund to resume the $6 billion bailout package. Pakistan's foreign exchange reserves have depleted to a critical level and the country has less than six weeks of import cover remaining. The reserves are currently below $9 billion, according to Pakistan media reports.

INDIA MARKET | Wed, 29 Jun 2022, 11:49PM IST Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said there's no guarantee'' the central bank can tame runaway inflation without hurting the job market. Speaking Wednesday at a European Central Bank forum in Sintra, Portugal, Powell repeated his hope that the Fed can achieve a so-called soft landing raising interest rates just enough to slow the economy and rein in surging consumer prices without causing a recession and sharply raising the unemployment rate. We believe we can do that. That is our aim,'' he said. But the Russian invasion of Ukraine, he said, had made the job more difficult by disrupting commerce and driving up the price of food, energy and chemicals. It's gotten harder,'' Powell said. The pathways have gotten narrower.'' ECB President Christine Lagarde echoed the major impact" of energy shocks, which are rippling worldwide but felt acutely in Europe because of its reliance on Russian oil and natural gas.
