Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has adopted measures like avoiding travel where possible, and moving people from abroad to India to cut costs, a senior official of the company said here today.
"These are difficult times. One of the things we have increased is the number of video conferences between cities in India... So we are making use of earlier infrastructure to a greater extent than before," TCS Executive Vice-President Kesav Nori told PTI.
"We are avoiding travel, using telephone and telephonic conversations, web casting... All these have increased internally. There is a greater move from people onsite to offshore," he said.
There is also great emphasis on making people more productive, Nori said.
Replying to a query, he said the commitments on campus recruitments made by the company will be honoured.
"All the campus recruitments have been made, (and) they will be honoured. They (the appointments) will be staggered because they (the people) have to join our training facilities. TCS... Is not there to do people out of jobs, but it wants everybody to become more productive," he said.
Nori was speaking on the sidelines of a function where the Computer-Based Functional Literacy was launched at the office of the city's prominent Urdu daily 'Siasat'.
