Infosys fired an employee over outrageous post on coronavirus

India’s tech giant Infosys on Friday has terminated the services of an employee who wrote an “inappropriate post” on social media platform Twitter about the coronavirus pandemic.

Infosys took to micro-blogging site Twitter and noted that it has sacked an employee after he posted a politically incorrect statement on the ongoing coronavirus outbreak. The tech company wrote in a tweet: “Infosys has completed its investigation on the social media post by one of its employees, and we believe that this is not a case of mistaken identity.”

The Bengaluru-based company maintained that it has a “zero-tolerance policy towards such acts and has accordingly, terminated the services of the employee,” as per media reports.
