Trouble seem to be unending for Infosys with Pune-based IT workers union NITES preparing to start a protest along with trainees who were laid off recently by Infosys if the government does not take appropriate action.
Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) in a statement on Wednesday said ...we will continue to stand with these employees until they receive the fairness and dignity they deserve. Today we are politely requesting the authorities for justice but if the government will not take appropriate measures then NITES along with all the employees will not hesitate to start a massive protest outside Infosys campus.
Infosys said that every trainee joins with full understanding that performance evaluations are key part of their progress and asserted that all eligible trainees (over 98 per cent) have received their relieving letter upon separation along with outplacement services severance pay counselling among other measures.

NITES emphasised it is imperative that immediate action is taken to address this injustice and added those responsible must be held accountable for their actions.
Infosys meanwhile countered the allegations saying every trainee joins with the clear understanding that performance evaluations are an integral part of their development and progress.
Each trainee that joins Infosys fills an Apprenticeship Registration Form accepting their apprenticeship with Infosys where the training cost is borne entirely by Infosys. Our testing processes are articulated in the evaluation policy document and also communicated proactively to all trainees Infosys said in a statement.
