To further enhance this experience, we’ve introduced innovations like process automation, which have streamlined HR operations, resulting in greater efficiency and improved employee satisfaction.
Regular engagement, including townhalls, team events, and open dialogues with leadership, strengthens trust, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose.
By continuously listening to our workforce and adapting to their needs, we maintain a workplace where talent thrives and innovation flourishes.
A holistic approach to employee wellbeing
Employee wellbeing is a cornerstone of retention. Our Thrive360 program focuses on holistic support across six dimensions
Physical wellbeing: To support employee health, we offer on‑site health screenings, including complimentary breast cancer screenings for female employees, alongside diet and nutrition counseling through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) partnership. In FY26, we will expand these offerings by introducing subsidized gym memberships to promote preventive health and wellness.
Mental and emotional wellbeing: We have strengthened our psychological support framework through three strategic enhancements: (1) relaunching EAP services with targeted awareness campaigns, (2) extending coverage to international employees, and (3) most recently including family members in the program. Following these interventions, counseling utilization has risen to 10.45%, reflecting improved engagement with existing services. In FY26, we will introduce a specialized parental support package offering counseling from the third trimester through return-to-work transitions, providing resources for both employees and their managers.
Workplace and culture: We have elevated our employee experience through enhanced benefits (Upgraded medical insurance, term life & accidental coverage, improved car lease policy, flexible leave policy, and corporate partnerships (e.g., VIBGYOR schools). In FY26, we will be expanding hospital network tie-ups for corporate healthcare benefits, implement a structured Recognition Framework to institutionalize appreciation, and launch our Employee Value Proposition (EVP), reinforcing a sense of purpose and pride in the organization.
Financial wellbeing: To empower employees in managing their financial health, we are introducing targeted financial literacy workshops for early-career professionals, equipping them with foundational money management skills. Additionally, we are partnering with leading banks to deliver specialized financial planning workshops, covering investment strategies, tax planning, and retirement preparedness.
Social wellbeing: We have fostered meaningful connections through structured CSR initiatives, including STEM mentoring programs for women, Synquizitive annual science quiz for children, and environmental sustainability projects, alongside our People Pavilion events that enable direct engagement with HR on key priorities (My Future Plan, L&D, Policies, Wellness, and Inclusion). Moving forward, we will sustain these programs while exploring new formats to further enhance community building and transparent dialogue.
Career and personal development: This year, My Future Plan has become deeply integrated as our performance management framework, solidifying its role as a cornerstone of our high-performance culture. Moving beyond traditional evaluations, this forward-looking approach continues to foster meaningful conversations that celebrate achievements while paving the way for future growth and success.
We conducted masterclasses on performance management, total rewards for managers, and goal-setting for all employees, ensuring alignment with organizational objectives and personal development.
The framework places strong emphasis on individual growth journeys, encouraging employees to take ownership of their personal development through clear goals and continuous feedback. By embedding this approach, we’ve created a culture of clarity, accountability, and continuous growth, empowering employees to thrive and contribute to our collective success.
My Future Plan integrates both performance and career conversations, ensuring employees receive clear feedback on their contributions while also discussing long-term growth opportunities.
