Online food ordering service Zomato has hired psychiatrist Rohit Garg to counsel its employees, a month after one of its delivery boys was captured on camera eating out of the packets he was carrying, causing a furore on social media.
Zomato is “making an attempt to build an environment that encourages professional help,” founder Deepinder Goyal said in an email response to ET, confirming the hiring. “We believe strong mental health plays a significant role in productivity and the overall quality of work-life, across all levels and stakeholders within the organisation.”
Other than the delivery crew, Garg will counsel employees across teams 2-3 times a week.
