“We will be bringing our employees back to the offices in the coming months. We are already starting to encourage our associates to return to their respective offices. Senior management level officers have started working regularly from the offices. Our offices around the world are adhering to all social distancing and COVID-19 protocols that have been implemented around the start of the pandemic, and are extremely safe for employees to work,” TCS said in its work from home location.

’25X25 Model’
It added that the company looks forward to seeing its campuses filled with youthful energy across all of our global offices spread across 46 countries in the coming months. “We are committed to adopting our futuristic and path-breaking 25X25 model.”
The company said this model would require no more than 25 percent of its associates to work from the office at any given time, and that they would not need to spend more than 25 percent of their time in the office. “But, an important part of the journey of the 25/25 model is to first bring people back to physical offices and gradually transition to the hybrid work model.”
