Casual and contract workers in many circles/divisions of BSNL are on agitation for implementation of minimum wage, social security measures like EPF, Insurance etc. Although the BSNL corporate office has issued clear instructions, the workers are not getting the full wages. EPF, Insurance premium are not deducted, identity cards are not given etc.

In Assam, FIR has been registered against contract workers for going on struggle by filing false cases by the contractor-management conspiracy. Many contract workers denied employment after Corporate office is insisting to pay minum wage.

Leaders of the BSNLEU at Circle and SSA levels should give all support and help to the just struggle of these workers who are being exploited and are denied even what is provided as per rules and laws of this country.
