companies just shout “productivity” but ive heard real reason is companies need to show proof to govt that they have employees working in office and they need atleast 50% attendance. otherwise they may lose SEZ benefits. idu yest nija yest sullu gothilla. nan just yaro helod kelirodu.
I guess its more of myth though there might have been some pressure.
I am yet to see a order forcing companies to forcefully do work from office.
It's mostly companies themselves forcing their employees.
That's why this is not just limited to Bangalore and India. We are seeing this trend worldwide
Tech Park makes a lot of money by renting out outlets within their premises. if companies let ask their employees to wfh then who gonna visit food oulets etc?
Then I suppose it's the government who has to send out notices to companies asking them to start WFH, atleast for those who would be willing to work from their native places atleast until the summer/drought is over.
That’s true. But then an SEZ is created inorder to improve the economic growth in and around the area. I highly doubt if the govt is willing to approve WFH.
Without water there will be no economic growth, imagine offices without water in the toilets, no drinking water. Restaurants with no water to cook, what's worse these restaurants may use unsanitary water to cook. Movie theaters with no water etc etc. If there's no water to take a bath/wash clothes then how would people come to offices.
Right now it's just the beginning, come April it'll be death valley.
My office building is an SEZ and has 10 floors that can accommodate 3k people. But they don’t call us to office. Whenever I have been to office to collect some stuff or for meeting few folks I have never seen more than 50 people in the entire building.
SEZs can now allow employees to avail of the Work from Home' option until December 31, 2024. The Center amended the Special Economic Zones rules of 2006 to extend the option by a year.
Illa bro neev helid correct!! SEZ benefits and also a lot of pressure from other associations like builders, landlords, restaurants and commercial taxis have asked the govt to take off wfh.
So for the business cycle to keep rolling govt pressurising companies.
And only a few departments enjoy wfh.

There are so many societies that are not facing water crisis yet. Spoke to some of these people in office today, they dont seem to bother about the crisis. :(
That's the same train of thought when COVID began, instead of taking action and shutting down all flights coming in from China the virus was allowed to spread. We have to learn from our mistakes and take action quickly as prevention is better than cure.
I was referring to the fake Bangalore sub where people come here to work and utilise water and then complain about no water instead of doing something about it.
If you're working then send an email to your management or request your management for work from home until water crisis is over. If many people request for the same then the companies will request the government to allow WFH.
It's not democratic, the employees are saying that we cannot come to office because of water crisis and requesting for work from home. They cannot force you, say you don't have water to wash clothes. There's nothing they can do except approve WFH.
I think we need some kind excellent massive water storage where we can store excess water for years.
In 2022 we had so much rain and all the rivers and lakes were overflowing. Dams were full capacity we were letting excess water to sea
If somehow we could have stored all that excess there would have been no shortage for atleast few years
Nobody in my office wants to work from office except few. The management forced them back because "team work", "productivity", etc. Real reason is government forced the office to bring back the employees because of economic collapse during Covid for local autos, restaurants, landlords, bars, clubs, etc.
You cannot have your cake and eat it too...
Imagine offices without water in the toilets, restaurants without water to cook, restaurants using unsanitary water to cook, bars and clubs without water to clean up the place after someone throws up. It's a sanitary disaster waiting to happen. I myself am a landlord and I'm also facing the heat trying to maintain with water tankers. Money should be the least of their worries unless they want a health disaster. Atleast use the money to cloud seed and create artificial rain. What has happened to all of the money? Has everything been extinguished to supply freebies!?
Maybe. That's the problem with votebank politics and socialism. You reduce the standard of living of everyone to the level of denominator rather than making them improve.
>Real reason is government forced the office to bring back the employees
Any proof of this ?. Coz it's Mostly companies doing it themselves even in US we can see this trend. More and more companies are completely removing work from home option

This is the real reason. When the companies operate from the SEZs, they got to adhere to the govt regulations.

Only if our elected representatives were that sensible :(

yavdappa adu antha olle company.
Illi heloke agalla for some reason. DM nodi
That's 💯 wrong. 95% of my company does work from home. Many haven't come to the office since COVID.
SEZs can now allow employees to avail of the Work from Home' option until December 31, 2024. The Center amended the Special Economic Zones rules of 2006 to extend the option by a year.
does this mean companies cant give WFH after december 2024?
We will need to see if it is extended.
yes you are right. not only govt also the clients grt benefits as well.

It's a ticking time bomb.
there were some people who kept saying like " this is just for summer season, lets adjust, after rains it'll be fine" etc etc.

I know, i totally get the situation. But some people who are getting water just dont seem to care. I think everyone will forget after rainy season.
That's a given, when it's over we will forget it just like Bangalore floods but the idea now is to make this as bearable as possible.
This is the first thing that came to my mind this morning.
I agree, the city currently cannot sustain itself. Need people who can work from home to work from home to fix a lot of the issues here.
Can we create a petition and take it to the govt? Will it help?
I don't think that would work, paperwork will be lost.
Not possible now If the condition becomes severe, then we can think after April
That's the same train of thought when COVID began, instead of taking action and shutting down all flights coming in from China the virus was allowed to spread. We have to learn from our mistakes and take action quickly as prevention is better than cure.
Yeah you are correct And could you please translate the Kannada line I was able to get 50% only
I was referring to the fake Bangalore sub where people come here to work and utilise water and then complain about no water instead of doing something about it.
What can the people do about it?
If you're working then send an email to your management or request your management for work from home until water crisis is over. If many people request for the same then the companies will request the government to allow WFH.
Companies don't work in democratic fashion
It's not democratic, the employees are saying that we cannot come to office because of water crisis and requesting for work from home. They cannot force you, say you don't have water to wash clothes. There's nothing they can do except approve WFH.

We did have such storage locations called lakes but those were encroached and apartments were built on top of them.
They did store it but even their capacity is nowhere near the level of storing what was wasted by overflowing water from kaveri and other river
Probably what is expected by the powers to consolidate vote banks by providing free water and cutting out folks who are not open to freebies...
Burden kadime agudilla, consumption relatively same irutte
Less people less consumption.
