Wage Negotiating Committee meeting to be held on 05-03-2024..

In the backdrop of the notice issued by BSNLEU for one day strike on 16.02.2024, Dr. Kalayan Sagar Nippani, Director (HR) BSNL, invited BSNLEU for talks. In the meeting held between the  Director (HR) and BSNLEU on 07.02.2024, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, bitterly complained that the negative attitude being adopted by the BSNL Management, on the issue of Wage Revision, was one of the main reasons behind the strike. In the last National Council meeting, the Staff Side pointed out that the negative attitude of the Management in trying to cut down the Non-executive pay scales already mutually agreed between the Unions and the Management. In that meeting, the Shri Arvind Vadnerkar, the then Director (HR) assured that the views of the Unions would be referred to the Management Side of the Wage Negotiating Committee. However, the Wage Negotiating Committee was never convened thereafter. This complaint was also raised by the GS, BSNLEU, in the meeting held with the Director (HR) on 07.02.2024. Based on this, the Director (HR) assured that the Wage Negotiating Committee meeting would be held. The Management has now issued notification for holding the Wage Negotiating Committee meeting on 05.03.2024. Members of BSNLEU are participating in this meeting.
