BSNL should implement the VII CPC wages for Casual workers

Casual labour, wages

Casual workers recruited in DOT and working in BSNL are being paid the lowest of the DOT (Govt.) wages. BSNLCCWF had earlier demanded that they should be paid the lowest wages in BSNL. The demand was not accepted by the BSNL Management stating that since they are recruited by DOT, they will be aid the government wages only. Now that the government has implemented the VII CPC recommended pay scales and the lowest wage is Rs.18,000, the same should be paid to the casual workers. It is also demanded that the CDA also should be paid.

The BSNL Management has so far not implemented the same. Instead a committee is appointed to look in to the matter. Management has agreed to pay the CDA, but so far no order is issued.

BSNLCCWF is continuously making efforts get both the above implemented at the earliest.

employees, Kingfisher, Mallya, wages

Kingfisher owner Vijay Mallya left the country not only cheating the PSU Banks, but also cheated his own employees. While he cheated the PSU Banks thousands of crores of rupees by not repaying the loans, he cheated the workers about more than Rs. 300 crores by not paying their due wages.

The more than 3000 workers have not received their salaries for many months. While the workers do not get their salaries, the owners manage with out losing any single paise and escape to safety. Government looks on without taking any action.

Contract workers, wages

The Central Trade Unions have been strongly demanding for the last few years for equal wage and benefits for the contract workers just like regular workers. The NDA government had also moved in that direction. But now due to strong pressure from the employers and corporates, the government seem to be backtracking.

According to a survey about 55%in public sector and 45% in private sector jobs are got done by the contract workers. They are being exploited in wages as well as working conditions.

The Central Trade Unions have opposed the present move of the government and have warned that they will never agree to any such condition.

CL, EPF, TSM, wages

Com.V.A.N.Namboodiri, President, BSNLEU and BSNLCCWF met Shri R.K.Goyal, GM (Estt.) and discussed about the need to increase the wages of TSM and Casual Labour engaged in BSNL. It was demanded that the minimum of the pay of BSNL ie. Rs. 7,760 should be given instead of the present Rs. 6,600, which is based on the DOT scale. It was also pointed out by the union that even Rs. 6,600 was not the pay to be given as per the government pay, it should be Rs. 7,000 ( Rs. 5,200 pay and Rs. 1,800 Grade pay). The necessary orders and instructions were also furnished. But the management did not commit anything, instead justified the decision already taken.
The Union also demanded that the EPF contribution for the Casual labour should be from the date of employment. The GM (Estt.) assured that a decision will be taken within a few weeks and orders issued in this matter.
