2. Flexibility: We empower to our associates to balance their professional and personal needs as they manage work – life integration.
3. Sensitive to & Inclusive of Special Needs: Life’s unpredictability may need additional support. We commit to accommodate special needs of our associates, as they tide over moments that matter or require reasonable accommodation.
