Break through in the issue of Wage Revision of the Non-Executives – a great achievement..

Wage Revision of the Non-Executives had almost become a dead issue. However, our continuous efforts has given life to this very important demands.  DoT had already given a clear direction to the BSNL Management, to sign the wage agreement with the Recognised Unions of the Non-Executives and send it for the approval of the DoT. However, BSNL Management had been avoiding this. Now, we have been able to compel the Management to reconstitute the Wage Negotiating Committee and to re-start the Wage Negotiations. In the AUAB meeting held with the Board of Directors yesterday, the AUAB has told the CMD BSNL categorically that, the Wage Agreement should be signed without delay and sent for the approval of the DoT. Issues like conflict (DPE’s direction that Non-Executive pay scale should not be higher than the pay scale of the Executive), etc., should be addressed by the DoT. Regarding the Pay Revision of the Executives, it has to be taken up with the DoT. The AUAB is determined to do this task also.
