NITES files complaint against Infosys over delayed joining of 2k freshers

Pune-based IT employee union Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) on Tuesday stated that it has filed a written complaint with the Ministry of Labour and Employment against IT major Infosys, alleging that the firm has delayed the onboarding of around 2,000 fresh engineering graduates for more than two years.

According to NITES, these freshers, selected for system engineer and digital specialist engineer roles, were issued offer letters as early as April 2022 but have since faced continuous delays in the onboarding process, which included unpaid pre-training programmes and unexpected additional assessments.
