According to charges made by a whistleblower regarding a hiring controversy, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has suspended six employees and six business associate companies for violating ethical standards. Tata Sons Chairman N Chandrasekaran made the statement.
At the 28th Annual General Meeting, TCS aims to review and strengthen its supplier management procedures to avert future occurrences like the current employment issue and to place an emphasis on staff ethics and integrity.
“The most important thing expected of every employee is ethical conduct and integrity, ahead of any financial performance. So, whenever there is a violation of ethical conduct by any employee, it pains me. All the leaders take it extremely seriously and we will always deal with such incidents with very strong action,” he said.
Six people and six companies have been banned as a result of two complaints submitted in February and March alleging that TCS officials participated in the jobs-for-bribes scheme. Additionally, he added, an outside investigator is looking at the US complaint.
