YesMadam Layoffs: Can an organisation fire you for being stressed?

YesMadam, calling itself the most trusted and transparent home salon platform in India, is trending on social media for a different reason. The organisation has allegedly fired employees under stress after conducting an in-office poll.

The firm sent an email informing scores of employees about the termination, according to a LinkedIn post. The email initially informed employees about the stress survey conducted recently, adding that the company deeply respects their concerns.

But then, things started turning south as YesMadam announced the “difficult decision” to fire employees under significant stress, despite earlier describing itself as a company committed to fostering a healthy and supportive environment.

The layoff decision is effective immediately and impacted employees are going to get further details separately, the email concluded, thanking the team for their contributions. The announcement has taken the internet by storm.

YesMadam seeks to become the one-stop salon and spa for a consumer. The company has more than 1 million customers, at least 3000 beauty professionals and a presence across more than 50 cities in the country.

Netizens are raising serious concerns about the approach YesMadam used to lay off its employees. Some people are calling it a terrible method, and others are describing it as a PR stunt by the company.
