May 2 (UPI) -- Infosys Ltd., India's iconic outsourcing firm, said Tuesday it will train and hire 10,000 workers in the United States.
The announcement follows an executive order from President Donald Trump calling for a review of the H-1B visa program, which allows U.S. employers to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations for extendable three-year periods. The specialized worker visa has been a benefit to Infosys, half of whose sales come from U.S. companies. Wall Street analysts have warned that any restrictions in the visa program, in favor of Trump's "Buy American, Hire American" order, could harm India's outsourcing sector, CNBC said Tuesday.
