A playful coronavirus prank proved costly for an Infosys techie. The software engineer identified Mujeeb Mohammed on his Facebook wrote, “Let”s join hands, go out and sneeze with open mouth in public. Spread the virus. Spread the word to end the word.” No sooner, the post went viral and drew flak from all quarters.
The tech giant which caught wind of the post terminated the employee and said, “The social media post by the employee is against Infosys” code of conduct and its commitment to responsible social sharing. Infosys has a zero tolerance policy towards such acts and has accordingly, terminated the services of the employee”.
