Fitness trackers, desk yoga: India Inc stretches forward

Not to be left behind, companies such as HDFC Ergo, SAP, TransUnion, Bajaj Electricals, and Tata Motors have announced yoga challenges, rolled out "desk yoga" modules, and activated employee wellness trackers. They are hosting in-house yoga sessions in the runup to the 10th anniversary of the United Nations-recognised event when most plan to turn their offices into yoga hotspots.

That ties in with the year-long events and activities conducted at firms such as JP Morgan, Godrej & Boyce, and Bank of Baroda to sustain and improve the health of employees—be it physical, mental, or, as in the case of Tata Power, even financial. The electric utility and electricity generation company is holding weeklong virtual yoga sessions culminating in an onsite yoga event on June 21. This is in addition to monthly yoga training and mental health-counselling sessions, complemented by seminars held by financial experts to reduce employees' "financial stress".
