Infosys has reportedly launched an internal initiative asking employees to share details about their household electricity consumption while working from home as part of its ongoing environmental sustainability efforts. The move comes amid the IT services company’s hybrid work policy, under which staff typically split their time between home and office.
In an email to employees, Chief Financial Officer Jayesh Sanghrajka highlighted that as hybrid working becomes more entrenched, the company’s environmental impact extends beyond its campuses and into employees’ homes.
The survey asks employees to report information on household electrical appliances, fan and air-conditioner use, lighting wattage and whether they have access to solar power, and also encourages them to share energy-saving ideas implemented at home. According to the company, the exercise will help update its emissions reporting and support targeted energy-efficiency interventions.
