TCS layoff row: Karnataka Labour Department calls conciliation meeting
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is facing heat after letting go of about 12,200 employees—mostly mid and senior-level staff—as part of a global layoff.
On July 30, the Karnataka State IT/ITeS Employees Union (KITU) filed a complaint, saying TCS didn't get required approvals and allegedly pressured people to resign.
Now, the state's Labour Department has called for a conciliation meeting on August 6 to sort things out.
