Global software majors Infosys and Accenture on Wednesday said they would pay for the vaccination of their employees. "We will cover the vaccination cost for our employees and their family as part of our focus on health and wellness," said Infosys chief operating officer U B Pravin Rao in a statement here.

The city-based IT behemoth will partner with healthcare providers to vaccinate its techies under the guidelines of the government and as per the procedures. The Indian arm of the US-based Accenture said it would also pay for vaccinating its employees and their dependents who are part of its medical programme.
