Abstract
COVID-19 pandemic led Indian
organizations to take strategic action
related to human capital. What
came handy to them to run their
businesses with a handful of workers
after laying off others whom
they wanted otherwise by giving the
excuse of the pandemic is “workf
rom-home ”. The new work arrangement
happened to be unique
to the majority workforce in India
as there has been no federal labor
law in the country that allows empl
oyers t o get work done f rom
home. However, on a deeper analysis,
we cannot dispense with its
long term adverse consequences on
workplace solidarity. It will cripple
this small section of the workforce
as employees would seldom be able
to meet or have regular workplace
meetings, ravaging collectivization,
union coverage and union density.
