TCS New Bench Policy: A new rule limits the bench period to 35 days per year. Here is what it means
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has rolled out a new associate deployment policy that mandates a minimum of 225 billed business days annually for each employee, effectively limiting bench time to a maximum of 35 business days per year. The policy, effective June 12, aims to reduce idle time and ensure better workforce utilisation in line with the company's organisational and individual performance goals. TCS New Bench Policy to Impact Compensation and Career Growth "At any given point in time, associates must be allocated for a minimum period of 225 business days in the last 12 months," a company document reviewed by TOI stated. "Long periods of remaining unallocated shall adversely impact associate compensation, career growth, avenues of overseas deployment in future, and continuity of employment with the organisation," it added. The updated policy was outlined by Chandrasekaran Ramkumar, global head of TCS's Resource Management Group (RMG), which handles talent deployment across the company. The RMG is responsible for ensuring that associates are continuously engaged in client projects. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Are Watching Tariffs - Few Are Watching What Nvidia Just Launched Seeking Alpha Read Now Undo Responsibility lies with associates during unallocated periods According to the document, associates not assigned to any project must take the initiative to find work. "In the event an associate is unallocated, it is the primary responsibility of the associate to proactively engage with the Unit / Regional RMG for seeking allocation and take initiative towards pursuing suitable opportunities provided by the organisation." Unallocated resources are defined as those who are released to RMG, available for new assignments, and currently reporting to RMG. Live Events Upskilling mandatory for those on bench While on the bench, associates are expected to dedicate 4 to 6 hours daily for learning through internal platforms such as iEvolve, Fresco Play, and VLS, along with external platforms like LinkedIn. They must complete all required training, attend recommended in-person sessions, and regularly update their skills. Associates are also expected to use TCS's Gen AI interview coach, address interview feedback, and complete training programmes with full attendance. Work-from-office becomes the default mode To enable faster project deployment, TCS has made physical office presence compulsory. Work-from-home or flexible work arrangements are not generally permitted. "However, associates may request short-term flexible work options for personal emergencies in exceptional circumstances, subject to organisational policies and prior approval from the RMG." Multiple short-term project assignments discouraged TCS has also cautioned against frequent short-term allocations across various projects. The policy notes that such patterns may trigger HR investigations and lead to disciplinary action. An email sent to TCS seeking comments on the new policy did not receive a response till the time of going to press.
