Employees at e-commerce marketplace Meesho will get the third consecutive annual "Reset and Recharge" break from November 11 to 19, which the firm says is a nine-day hiatus to unplug from work, immerse in festivities, and prioritise mental well-being.
The ‘Reset and Recharge’ break is an integral component of the firm’s comprehensive wellness programme MeeCARE.
“Over the past couple of years, we have been impressed by the intangible yet profoundly positive influence that the Reset and Recharge break has exerted on our employees' mental well-being. Notably, after their return to work from the break, we have observed a palpable sense of joy and renewed vigor in our team. This, perhaps, is one of the factors that helps Meeshoites bring their utmost potential to the workplace,” Ashish Kumar Singh, Chief Human Resources Officer, Meesho said.
Earlier in 2021, the company had also announced its gender neutral parental leave policy and that was revamped recently. This includes financial aid, an extended 30-week leave for the primary caregiver, surpassing the industry's standard of 26 weeks, extra leave provisions for unforeseen circumstances and health issues, assurances of equitable performance evaluations, and reintegration process into the workforce.
Separately, during its flagship Mega Blockbuster Sale from October 6 to 15, the e-commerce platform saw 1.2 billion customer visits in top categories like home and kitchen, fashion, beauty and personal care, etc. These categories garnered as many as 72 orders per second, Meesho said.
