Guidelines
Important Notice

Whilst we endeavor to provide you with a comprehensive view on the measures, we are taking
to contain the spread of the pandemic, this guideline is prepared in view of the general safety
of all our employees. It is the responsibility of each one of us to be aware of our own personal
situation and take suitable precautions accordingly. It is also our responsibility to stay
updated on the current state of affairs in your neighborhood before you return to work in view
of the restrictions, rules and regulations imposed by the concerned local authorities.

In case of any doubt, please consult with your HR manager.

This handbook provides minimum safety and precautions that an employee must take.
Wipro fully respects your choice if you would like to take more precautions to protect
yourselves during this pandemic. However, note that despite our best efforts to implement the
precautionary measures at workplace, it may not necessarily protect you from this pandemic.
