The Story in Brief
Accenture has asked its employees to postpone unused vacation days in a final push for fourth-quarter revenue, NDTV Profit reports citing people with knowledge of the matter. Staff can carry over any unused leave into the next fiscal year starting September 1.
The move is aimed at maximising workforce availability during the last weeks of the quarter. The company has not commented publicly on the directive.

Some may see Accenture's request as standard corporate hustle for quarterly targets. But for ordinary Indian workers, it reflects a deeper anxiety around job security and work-life balance in global IT services. The real test is whether employees will be compensated or just pressured. Will unused leaves actually be honoured next year? That answer lies in how many staff come forward with complaints after September.
