HCL's big incentive for top performer employees - A brand new Mercedes-Benz
HCL plans to reward top performers with Mercedes-Benz
IT major HCL Technologies is planning to reward top performers with a brand new Mercedes-Benz. According to a report in The Times of India, a proposal in this regard has been moved before the company’s board. Once approved, the top performers could soon drive home a luxurious Mercedes-Benz.
The concept, however, is not new as the company had in 2013 mooted a similar idea. It had then distributed 50 Mercedes Benz cars to top performers. The practice was discontinued later.
Explaining the rationale, Apparao VV, the Chief Human Resources Officer, said that the company pays 15 to 20 per cent extra at the time of hiring a replacement. The company, he said, is actively taking part in skilling the workforce.
