TCS says U.S. green card program suspension will not impact workforce strategy

Tata Consultancy Services stated that the suspension of the U.S. Permanent Labor Certification Program will not affect its workforce strategy or customer engagements.

The U.S. suspended several IT firms from the PERM program on Thursday, though TCS noted its applications were in single digits over the past two years.

TCS reaffirmed its plan to hire 15,000 additional workers in the U.S. over the next five years to augment its local workforce.
