I had thought that BSNL being a PSU and run by committed management,
there will be not much exploitation of the casual and contract workers
engaged in BSNL. I thought that the field management will be able to
control the contractors and ensure minimum wage, EPF etc. to the
contract workers.
But, unfortunately, this has not happened. In most of the circles, the contract workers are being paid very less than the minimum wage, some times even less than one third. Even after bringing these cases to the notice of the SSA management, neither action is taken against the contractor nor the latter is compelled to pay the minimum wages fixed by the labour Department and intimated by the CMD BSNL to the Circles/Districts.
And those leaders of the casual and Contract Workers Federation(BSNLCCWF), who are raising these issues are retrenched from work.
Is the BSNL management is hearing? Will they take any action?
