WORK-LIFE BALANCE
Overview   |   Maternity & Paternity Benefits   |   Flexi Hours & Sabbatical  
   
Overview  

In today's competitive age, it is important for employees to build a relationship with their work, but not at the cost of their relationship with family members and friends. Work-life conflict can have negative consequences on both professional and personal responsibilities and can be a source of considerable stress.

 
This year, we introduced several new policies such as flexible work timings, sabbatical leave, part-time work, paternity & maternity leave as well as leave for those adopting a child.
At Dr. Reddy's, we acknowledge the role of individuals beyond their professional lives. Hence, stress on striking a healthy work-life balance that goes beyond just stress management at work. We provide flexibility in work, conduct rejuvenation programmes and provide a host of leave benefits as well as tangible and intangible incentives. This ensures that our employees lead a balanced, stress-free and fulfilling life.  
This balance strengthens employee loyalty, enhances productivity and increases retention.  
In the FY 2009-10, we introduced several new policies such as flexible work timings, sabbatical leave, part-time work, paternity & maternity leave as well as leave for those adopting a child. For the ease of our employees on weekends, we provide them with laptops that enable them to work from home and cut commuting time.  
Employees are provided with free medical checkups as well as medical insurance. They also have access to over 3,500 network hospitals and nursing homes across India .  
Beyond employee healthcare, we also extend medical support to employees' parents. In fact, 65% to 70% of our spend on medical insurance accounts for our employees' parents. Our health checkup facility is also available to the family at discounted rates.
