BSNLEU once again insists for the re-engagement of the retrenched contract workers and to redeploy them in sales and marketing activities

BSNLEU is continuously pressing the Management for the re-engagement of the 30% contract workers, who are retrenched as per the direction of the Corporate Office. The matter has already been discussed with the CMD BSNL and Director (HR), as a result of which the Corporate Office has written to the CGMs, referring the letter written by GS, BSNLEU, and calling for their reviews. Com. P. Abhimanyu, GS, met Shri Manish Kumar, GM (Restg.) today, and discussed this issue. He pointed out that calling for the views of the CGMs on this issue, is a futile exercise, since no CGM will respond. The General Secretary insisted that the Corporate Office should give a direction to the CGMs for the re-engagement of the retrenched contract workers and for redeploying them in sales and marketing activities.
