At the same time, we are also committed to exploring new solutions that can address any eventualities that may arise going forward.”

Additional help being provided includes transport, medication, food, assistance in procuring hospital beds, ambulances, oxygen cylinders, and homecare. To date the Virtusa team been extremely successful in its efforts to provide assistance where requested.

These facilities are supported by Virtusa staff and medical experts from renowned hospitals in the region. In addition, an active database of Convalescent Plasma Virtusan donors is being maintained.

In addition, Virtusa is leveraging its employee welfare fund to help with medical exigencies as well as Virtual Connect initiatives for mental and physical well-being that are being offered to any team member in need. All of this while keeping delivery and customer centricity intact.
