Wage Revision - some facts..

Wage Revision talks have resumed on 05.03.2024. No meeting point has come on pay scales. Next meeting will be on 22.03.2024. At this stage, controversies are being created by mischievous elements regarding pay scales.

Some comrades are under the impression that, the Wage Revision can be settled soon. This is totally wrong. Even if the Wage Revision agreement is signed, it has to get the approval of the Cabinet. Presently, as per the decision of the Cabinet, BSNL is not eligible for Wage Revision. So, Cabinet has to change it's decision. It is not so easy. Notification for Parliament Election is going to be issued within a few days. Nothing will happen till the Election is over. Even after Parliament election, the new government has to take a political decision, for allowing wage revision in BSNL. There are many loss making PSUs like BSNL, whose employees are also demanding wage revision. All these issues are there. BSNLEU is taking the best possible steps for the settlement of wage revision. It has made a strong claim for wage revision by organising one day strike on 16-02-2024. Hence, comrades are requested to have trust on the Union and ignore the controversies and rumours being spread by mischievous elements.
