The Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) has formally requested the Indian government to implement a mandatory work-from-home (WFH) advisory for the IT and IT-enabled services sector. This appeal is in response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent call for reduced fuel consumption and unnecessary travel due to global geopolitical pressures. In a letter dated May 11, 2026, NITES highlighted that the IT sector successfully transitioned to remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, maintaining productivity and business continuity. The union argues that many employees still endure long commutes despite the availability of effective digital alternatives, which contributes to fuel consumption and urban congestion. By adopting WFH practices, the IT sector can play a significant role in supporting national conservation efforts while ensuring uninterrupted economic activity. NITES emphasizes that this initiative should not be viewed merely as a corporate flexibility measure but as a vital national responsibility. The organization remains committed to collaborating with the government to balance economic growth, employee welfare, and environmental sustainability.
