Living wages

At O.P. Jindal Global University, we are deeply committed to the principle of living wages, ensuring that every individual employed at the university, irrespective of their direct engagement or third-party contracts, earns a wage that meets or exceeds the living wage standards mandated by national regulations as well as our own fair work commitments. Our set standards guarantee that our staff, faculty and contracted employees can meet essential needs such as housing, nutrition, health care, education and transportation for themselves and their families.  

Moreover, to the base salary, JGU also provided a comprehensive suite of benefits to support worker well-being measures such as paid annual sick leave, maternity and paternity leaves, medical coverage as well as access to subsidized housing for eligible staff. All of our workers have transparent access to pay rates and benefits information, and our contracted employees are assured that their compensation matches or exceeds the statutory minimum and the living wage benchmark. We prioritize dignified working conditions and ample additional support mechanisms, affirming our sincerity to remain committed to decent and dignified work.
