Meesho announces new staff wellness programs

03 September 2021, Mumbai:

A platform for online sales Meesho has launched a number of employee wellness initiatives, including a 10-day company-wide break and a ‘Reset & Recharge' policy, to prioritize staff well-being at the firm.

Employees at Meesho have been told to totally disconnect from their job from November 4 to 14 in order to care for their health and general well-being, according to ET Bureau. The decision is in reaction to the pandemic's consequences and a pledge by the firm to prioritize mental wellness in its staff.

According to TNN, the firm stated, "The epidemic emphasized the need to go back to the basics, be understanding and compassionate to one other." “This is also true for businesses. Meesho's main priority has always been its employees and their families' well-being.” The new policy, according to the company, is intended to start a larger dialogue about the need for mental health assistance in the Indian workplace. 

Meesho sells apparel, jewelry, and accessories from a variety of companies in men's, women's, and children's sizes. During the epidemic, the Bengaluru-based company created a grocery section to meet consumer demands while adhering to lockdown rules. In April of this year, the company reported that it had secured $300 million (Rs 2,191 crore) in a fresh round of investment spearheaded by SoftBank Vision Fund, giving it a $2.1 billion value.
