Meesho, a leading E-commerce firm, has recently introduced its third consecutive annual “Reset and Recharge” break, as part of its ongoing commitment to prioritizing employee well-being. From November 11 to November 19, 2023, all Meesho employees will be granted a well-deserved nine-day respite to unwind, engage in festivities, and focus on their mental health.
The decision to implement this break follows the success of the ‘Meesho Mega Blockbuster Sale,’ a recent highlight for the company. Meesho’s dedication to its workforce’s holistic growth and happiness remains unwavering, demonstrated by its continued investment in employee wellness initiatives such as the Reset and Recharge break, which applies to all 1,300 employees at Meesho.
Ashish Kumar Singh, the chief human resources officer at Meesho, highlighted the positive impact of the Reset and Recharge break on employees’ mental well-being, noting a noticeable surge in enthusiasm and joy upon their return to work. Singh emphasized the role of such initiatives in enabling Meesho employees to perform at their best.
In addition to the Reset and Recharge break, Meesho recently revamped its parental policies to provide comprehensive support for employees navigating the journey into parenthood. These updated policies include extended leave for the primary caregiver, surpassing the industry standard, and provisions for unforeseen circumstances and health issues. Meesho’s equitable performance evaluations and smooth reintegration process further underline the company’s dedication to employee well-being.
Singh emphasized Meesho’s commitment to fostering a thriving company culture that prioritizes work-life balance and employee rejuvenation. The company’s approach allows employees the freedom to unwind in their preferred way, whether it involves spending time with loved ones, pursuing personal hobbies, or embarking on new adventures.
The Reset and Recharge break serves as a fundamental aspect of Meesho’s comprehensive wellness program, known as MeeCARE, which is designed to address employees’ mental, physical, financial, and social well-being. This extensive program encompasses various initiatives, including employee-led communities, sports tournaments like the Meesho Premier League, in-office health camps, mental health counseling, financial well-being sessions, exclusive F&B discounts, and collaborations with non-governmental organizations.
Meesho has consistently pioneered progressive policies, including unlimited wellness leave, a 30-day gender reassignment leave, and pet adoption leave. The introduction of the Reset and Recharge policy further underscores the company’s dedication to creating an empowering and vibrant workplace centered on the values of employee flexibility and empowerment.
