RIL makes provision for essential services

March 18, 2020 11:43 pm | Updated 11:43 pm IST - MUMBAI

Reliance Industries has initiated a work-from-home protocol for all its employees across the country and overseas in response to the evolving COVID-19 situation. This protocol will be effective till 31 March 2020.

“The company has migrated to an ‘Agile Work From Home’ protocol that encourages all employees to work from home and to utilise all productivity and digital tools at their disposal to maximise productivity,” said a company statement.

However, considering the public requirements in such an unprecedented situation, RIL will continue to provide all essential services to the citizens and will keep open its main retail grocery stores, telecom connectivity services, the hospital and any other essential service required for public or business continuity.

To perform these essential services, RIL hopes to keep staff requirement to the minimum possible, and expects about 10% of its staff to be deployed, on a rotation basis, as feasible, said the statement.
