CIRCULAR

Employees & Staff working in various States of “India”: Covid – 19

An order No 40-3/2020-DM-I(A) of Government of India, Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) dated

1st May 2020 specifies extension of lockdown in India for a further period of two weeks, i.e. until
May 17, 2020 with effect from May 4, 2020. The guidelines allow some relaxation for private offices
to resume operations with State specific preventive protocols to follow. In line with the above MHA
order, various commercial establishments of L&T registered under the Shops and Establishments
Act in India will commence graded resumption of work from office within the allowed capacity
concomitant with the concerned classified Zone, with effect from May 4, 2020. Offices within
the precincts of a Factory will be covered by the orders of the State and the Competent authority.

The above MHA order has classified various areas of India into three zones, viz, Red (Hotspot),
Green and Orange zones, besides the containment areas falling within the Red and Orange Zones.
The criteria for deciding the list of employees within the allowed capacity depending on the
classification who will resume work from office will be decided by the concerned IC Head and IC HR
Head. They will be informing the committee formed for each office area in advance. The resumption
will be on strict adherence to the guidelines stated in the above MHA order for such zones (attached
with this circular as Annexure 1) and with full compliance to the earlier Company communication -
SoP for Work Resumption dated April 26, 2020 circulated within the Company ( attached with this
circular as Annexure 2). Strict adherence to the guidelines /protocols/permissions of the competent
authority of the Central Government, State Government and various District Authority orders as
applicable should also be ensured.

The following, as illustrated below, should continue to work from home until May 17, 2020.
Employees with co-morbidities; Employees with respiratory problems such as Bronchitis/
Emphysema/ Asthma/ chronic respiratory ailment/ chronic immuno-suppressed conditions (those
being treated for Cancer, COPD, chronic renal failure) and Pregnant employees. The lists should be
prioritized with employees who can use private modes of transport including Company provided
transport, where available.

All such employees who will resume work from office with effect from May 4, 2020 will mandatorily
make a self - declaration form as provided in the above stated SoP, to the concerned HR one day
prior to resumption of work. The concerned HR Heads will ensure that such form is made digitally
available where possible or through other mechanism as appropriate for employees to fill and
submit prior to resumption.

Graded build-up of work in Manufacturing Units covered by the Factories Act 1948 and Project Sites
governed by rules framed by the appropriate government under The Building and other Construction
Workers‘ (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1996 will be in line with orders
of the MHA/Central and State Government rules. Manpower planning for work build up in such units
will be approved by the IC Head concerned ensuring full compliance. An advisory for communicating
with construction workers sensitizing them to the protocol announced by the MHA for travel, safety
and hygiene, is being separately released.

Notwithstanding the above, for business continuity, those services which have already been
categorized as essential or are specifically exempted by the relevant Central/State/District
notifications, shall continue to function. Special permissions may be taken for ensuring that very
critical operations such as dewatering in Metro projects continue to be exempted and permitted to
work, even in zones where there are restrictions on all normal activity.

The listed companies should commence resumption of office with effect from May 4, 2020, in
consultation with their respective Business Heads/CEO & MD and draw for compliance as
appropriate from the guidelines as stated herein above.

Consequently, those employees who are not a part of the resumption of work from office shall
continue to work from home (WFH) during the Lockdown period in order to ensure that there is
minimum disruption to business. This means taking additional responsibility by each one of us to
provide all support to our colleagues attending offices, Factories and Sites, in this time when
business has to catch up and ensuring that we work from home with discipline and dedication, in the
true spirit of L&Tites. It is important in times like this to keep Clients informed and assure them about
measures taken and the status in the best interest of all.

The intent of this communication is to emphasize the need for responsible leadership at all levels,
balancing the eagerness of an opportunity to commence graded resumption of work with the
diligence that is essential of implementing the health protocols, for preventing the spread of this
deadly virus besides ensuring compliance.

The above arrangement will be reviewed on or before May 17, 2020 as per Government directives.
