Innovana Thinklabs announces this initiative for female employees

Jaipur-based software firm, Innovana Thinklabs Limited, has announced a new initiative for its female employees. Innovana Thinklabs has introduced period leave policy, the firm said in a statement.

The leave policy is effective from 8th March 2022, Innovana Thinklabs said.

"In a company where every 1 in 4 employees is a female, Innovana Thinklabs believes that there should not be any shame or stigma attached to taking a day off. Understanding and accepting the fact that females and males are born with varied biological realities, this initiative is focused on overcoming the workplace taboo," the company said.

Commenting on the development, the company’s Chairman and MD, Chandan Garg said in a statement, “We at Innovana Thinklabs aim to celebrate and appreciate all the strong and fearless women out there. Upholding this promise, I would like to introduce a culture that acknowledges equity at work and celebrates womanhood by bringing forward “Period Leave” in Innovana Thinklabs. Under this policy, all the female employees can avail of one leave per month, no questions asked. As a diverse organization, it is really important for all of us to acknowledge and accept the biological differences and ensure that our employees are working with their full potential.”
