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.

The festival season is coming. It is during the festival season, ie. October – November, that Bonus is paid to the workers/employees. For the last four years, Bonus has been denied to BSNL employees. Despite strong demand by the unions, management took a stoic silence.

This situation can not continue. BSNL Employees Union and other unions have demanded that Bonus should be paid this year. While employees/workers in all other establishments are paid bonus, why not in BSNL. The plea of the management that ‘there is no profit, hence no bonus’ is not acceptable.

A joint committee of management and staff has been appointed to discuss the issue. The Joint Committee should urgently meet and decide for the paymeent of Bonus or PLI before the festival starts.

BSNL employees have been deprived of the Bonus for the last few years, on the plea by the management that since the company is in loss, employees are not eligible for Bonus. This is untenable.
The recognised union, BSNLEU, has pointed out that the present Bonus (PLI) Formula, which states that workers are not eligible for Bonus if the company is in loss, is an arbitrary decision with out consulting or discussing with the union/s.

BSNLEU and United Forum has already issued strike notice which includes the Bonus Demand also. BSNL Management should discuss and take a favourable decision. Bonus should be paid to the BSNL employees with out further delay. The Holidays season is already starting.
