After being hit by flooding rainfall, the city of Bangalore – which houses local offices of tech giants such as Google, Wipro, Cisco, SAP, and Infosys – turned into a watery disaster zone, underlining the rising risk of extreme climate.
“It’s not just a flood in my basement parking. It’s also a serious impact on the resources, the human personnel, their ability to work, an impact on their families. And it takes a toll on their mental health as well,” explained Parul Jain, VP at Everest Group and leader of the firm’s workforce and locations strategy practice.
