Women’s Day: This firm announces flexible working hours, baby care units for all female employees

On the occasion of International Women's Day, Saraf Furniture has announced an initiative to empower its women workforce. The campaign ‘Aapse Hi Toh Hum Hain’ is starting this Women’s Day.

As per a company statement, “Keeping in mind the comfort of the pandemic and working, the company has announced to install baby care units for new mothers. Understanding this need of affection and the necessity to work, the company took this decision for its female employees. Also adding, the period leaves they provided for last year will also be extended for the financial year 2022-23.” 

The company says, “Flexible working hours will remove the rigid system of a 9-5 job. The employees will be provided to complete their hours as per their convenience. This will strengthen the autonomous working of the enterprise. In large it will make the employees more energetic and enthusiastic for working. They can wish to switch to 10-6, 11-7 timeframe or can also talk to the HR for completing certain number of hours during the week. This is being done keeping their employees in mind.” 

Commenting on the initiative, Raghunandan Saraf, Founder and CEO- Saraf Furniture Said, “ We came up with this initiative 'Apse Hi Toh Hum Hain' as we feel as a business it is our duty to promote equality at workplace. We must lay emphasis to the skills required for working. As we all are accustomed to the WFH routine during the pandemic, as an organization it is our responsibility to make our employees feel at home. We came up with this initiative to make our female employees more content, satisfied and dedicated towards their roles. These initiatives will help keep their morale boosted which in turn will affect positively in our business operations.”
