Unjustified reduction of the minimum wages to Casual labourers. - BSNL CCWF has requested the Management for early settlement of the problem.

In the recent past, in response to our memorandum to the CLC on the demand of wages for Casual Labourers based on 7th CPC, the management has replied the CLC that the wages of the Casual Labourers in BSNL are being paid based on 6th CPC. But fact is that, the Casual labours are getting less amount of wages since July, 2019, after introduction of ERP in BSNL. We have pointed out the matter in our last National Council Meeting in the agenda of 7th CPC wages for the Casual Labourers. But actually, the management is making payment of wages to the Casual Labourers based on 4750+CDA. But, it should be Rs.6050+CDA based on 6th CPC Pay Scale. In the meantime, the DOPT has revised this Rs.6050 Pay scale to Rs.7000 for the Casual Labourers and the govt. is making payment of wages to the Casual Labourers in all Central govt. establishments at the rate of Rs.7000+ admissible DA. BSNLCCWF has submitted a memorandum on this subject to Shri S.P. Singh, PGM(Estt.) with a request for early settlement of the problem.
