Headquartered in the UK, Tesco today is ranked as the world's third largest retailer and a market leader in six of the 14 countries it operates in. The Tesco Hindustan Service Centre (HSC) is the global services arm for Tesco worldwide and provides IT, BPO, and backend services. 

BM has just published an article on how Bangalore based parents tremble as their daughters on the Tesco night shift walk unsafe roads “A lot of women employees working for Tesco in Whitefield are finding it unsafe to reach home after the late shift around midnight. The office cabs that are supposed to drop them at their doorstep - often more than an hour’s drive from Whitefield to various parts of the city - actually drop them a kilometre or two from their homes. For those women working the graveyard hours, this means they have to walk home unaccompanied past dark, lonely streets where potential harm lurks just around the corner.”
