🏢 Infosys Hybrid Work Policy – March 2025 Update
Infosys has officially transitioned to a structured hybrid work model, effective March 10, 2025. This move reflects a broader industry trend toward balancing flexibility with in-person collaboration.
---
🔹 What the Policy Says
Employees are now required to work from the office for at least 10 days each month. This is a minimum threshold, and certain projects or business units may require more frequent in-office presence depending on operational needs.
This mandate applies specifically to employees at Job Level 5 (JL5) and below. These include roles such as:
- Systems Engineers
- Senior Systems Engineers
- Technology Analysts
- Consultants
- Team Leads
Employees at Job Level 6 and above — such as Project Managers, Senior Managers, Delivery Heads, and Vice Presidents — are currently exempt from this requirement.
---
🛠️ How It’s Being Enforced
Infosys has updated its internal attendance tracking systems to reflect the new policy. The mobile app used for logging work-from-home days will no longer approve WFH requests by default. Instead, it will enforce the 10-day minimum office attendance rule.
If an employee fails to meet the required number of in-office days, the system may automatically deduct from their leave balance as a penalty.
---
🧠 How It Compares to Peers
While Infosys has opted for a quantified hybrid model (10 days/month), other IT firms are taking slightly different approaches:
- TCS has linked variable pay to office attendance, making it a performance-linked incentive.
- Wipro is encouraging office return but with more flexibility and team-level discretion.
- HCLTech is promoting hybrid work but hasn’t enforced strict mandates yet.
