In a controversial move, Yes Madam, a tech startup based in India, has sparked outrage after a leaked email indicated that they conducted a stress survey among employees and subsequently fired those who admitted to feeling stressed. The email, circulated by the company’s HR department, prompted significant backlash on social media platforms. According to reports, the survey was designed to assess employee well-being, but the decision to terminate those who expressed stress led to allegations of insensitivity and unprofessionalism. One employee, wishing to remain anonymous, shared that they felt targeted and demoralized after receiving the termination notice shortly following their admission of feeling overwhelmed. Critics argue that this approach not only breaches trust but also creates a culture of fear within the workplace. HR experts are weighing in on the implications of such actions, suggesting that employee well-being should be a priority rather than a reason for dismissal. The incident raises larger questions about corporate responsibility and the treatment of mental health in the workplace. As the situation evolves, many are calling for accountability from Yes Madam and advocating for a more supportive approach to mental health issues in corporate environments.
