Infosys said Layoffs made on performance and disciplinary grounds

Infosys today said it has laid off “a few” people on grounds of non-performance and disciplinary issues but denied reports of 500 jobs being cut by the country’s second largest software services company.

“We would like to clarify that there are no layoffs at Infosys. There have been a few separations that are in response to performance and disciplinary issues, which take place on an ongoing basis and this is no different from previous years,” an Infosys spokesperson said.

She added that the number of 500 people being laid off is “incorrect and the number is far below”.
