Bonus, BSNLCCWF

The contract workers engaged in BSNL have not been paid the Bonus for  this year. The plea that there are no funds is not tenable. Bonus is a right of the workers as per Bonus Act and BSNL is liable to pay it.

BSNL Casual and Contract Workers federation has taken up the case with the management. The BSNL Management should look in to the matter urgently and ensure that the same is paid early.

Festival season approaching – Where is the Bonus for BSNL employees?

25 Monday Sep 2017

Bonus, BSNL employees

Bonus is the deferred wage. There was no Bonus for government employees till 1977. Sustained struggles were fought by the Railways and Central government employees for Bonus, including the historic Railway Strike of 1974. It was only after the Janata Government came in to power that Bonus was granted.

The government has announced Bonus for Railway, Postal and other central establishments for 2017, though it is below the demand of the employees. But BSNL employees, who were central government employees earlier, have not been granted the same so far, despite demand from the unions. The Festival season has started and the delay in announcing the same is unjustified.

We demand the BSNL management to announce the Bonus for employees at the earliest.

This minimum bonus is applicable to all those workers getting pay up to 21,000. The order has been issued well in advance of Onam, the major festival of Kerala, so that the workers will get the Bonus in time.

Kerala Government is also trying to strengthen the state PSUs and make them profitable, which have all gone loss making during UDF rule.

BSNL should pay bonus to contract workers

Bonus, Contract workers

After much discussion and persuasion by BSNLEU and BSNLCCWF, orders have been issued for payment of bonus to regular employees and TSM/Casual labours on 07-10-2016. But no order has been issued for Bonus to contract workers engaged in BSNL. Contract workers are eligible for bonus as per labour laws. This has been brought to the notice of the BSNL Management several times.

We demand that BSNL management issue early orders for payment of bonus to the  contract workers also.

Bonus is Deferred Wage – It should be restored to BSNL Employees

2016, Bonus, BSNL, BSNLEU

Bonus has been denied to the BSNL employees for the last 3-4 years on the plea that the company is in loss. Bonus is the right of workers. It is deferred wage and can not be denied on one plea or another. The Central Government employees, P and T employees etc. got Bonus after prolonged struggles starting from the Bonus Convention in 1972 organised by the Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers led by Coms. K.G.Bose, A.S.Rajan, N.J.Iyer, K.Adinarayana and other leaders. The great Railway Strike of 1974 clinched the issue. Though the Congress government continued to deny Bonus despite strong struggles, the favourable decision came after the Janata Government came to power in 1977. Since then, the central government employees are getting Bonus, including telecom employees. After formation of BSNL, on the demand of the BSNL Employees Union for “Bonus for All”, executives also started getting bonus.

BSNL is getting revived after much effort on the part of the workers and the management. Workers have to be motivated for further progress.

BSNL Management should take the correct decision by granting at least the minimum Bonus of Rs. 7,000, which it paid earlier. Further revival, more bonus can be paid. Any decision to fool the workers by throwing down some crumbs will have only strong reaction. We demand the management to be wise and take the correct decision.

Grant Adhoc Bonus to BSNL Employees, Casual Contract Workers

18 Sunday Oct 2015

Bonus, BSNL, PLI, Puja

The Forum of BSNL Unions and Associations have demanded that Adhoc Bonus be paid immediately to the BSNL employees, since the discussion on the PLI (Productivity Linked Incentive) is still not completed. The Navaratri has already started and Vijaya Dashami, Puja  is on 22-23 October 2015. There is no further time to discuss and decide. It is therefore important that Adhoc Bonus be paid immediately.

The Bonus or PLI should be paid to the casual and contract workers also, who are the lowest paid in BSNL.
