‘Not Even Bare Minimum’: Employee Slams ‘One-Day’ WFH Policy For Monsoon In Mumbai
A marketing executive, Siddhartha Dayani, criticized companies in Mumbai for implementing a policy of offering only one work-from-home day per month during the monsoon season. He questioned the logic behind assuming that employees would only face inconvenience due to Mumbai rains for a single day.
Resonating Criticism
Dayani’s post on LinkedIn gained attention as he urged companies to do better and not be performative. He highlighted the challenges employees face during heavy rains and the expectations to still show up at the office, even risking health and safety.
Post-COVID-19, many employees prefer remote work options, but companies have called them back to the office, offering limited work-from-home days due to factors like rain.
Bare Minimum or Social Move?
Dayani described the one work-from-home day during monsoon as a mere “social move” to appear caring while not addressing the real issues faced by employees on other days of heavy rain. He emphasized the need for companies to genuinely care for their employees.
Many professionals on LinkedIn resonated with Dayani’s post, expressing agreement and sharing similar experiences of inconvenience during monsoon seasons.
The discussion extended to other regions like Gurugram, where employees face similar challenges due to heavy rains impacting their daily commute and work schedules.
