Meeting with the Director (HR).






Meeting with the Director (HR).

BSNLEU met Shri Arvind Vadnerkar, Director (HR), yesterday and discussed the following issues. Com.Animesh Mitra, President, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS and Com.Swapan Chakraborty, Dy.GS, participated in this discussion. The details of the discussion are given below:-
Announcement of results of the JTO LICE, held on 26.05.2019.
The results of the JTO LICE, held on 26.05.2019, has not been announced so far, despite the repeated attempts made by BSNLEU, to get it done expeditiously. Hence, the matter was once again discussed with the Director (HR), yesterday. It is learnt that, the file has already been sent by the Recruitment Branch, for necessary approval. The Union demanded that the results should be declared without further delay. The Director (HR) assured to look into it and to do the needful speedily.

Implementation of DoP&T orders in the validation of caste certificates of 857 ST officials of Maharashtra circle.
BSNLEU is continuously demanding implementation of the DoP&T orders in the matter of validation of caste certificates of 857 ST officials of Maharashtra circle. Despite our efforts, the Maharashtra circle administration is not implementing the orders. In yesterday’s meeting, BSNLEU demanded that, BSNL Management should take up the issue of validation of the caste certificates of 857 ST officials, only with the District Magistrates / District Collectors, etc., as per the DoP&T orders. This demand is being raised by BSNLEU because, our officials will be harassed by the state government officials, if the validation matter is taken up with lower level officials. After detailed discussion, the Director (HR) agreed that the validation matter will be taken up with the District Magistrates / District Collectors, etc.  

Transferring the Non-Executives out of the SSAs.
Recently, the Restructuring Branch of the Corporate Office has issued a letter to the CGMs, wherein it is stated that the Non-Executives could be transferred out of the SSA. BSNLEU has already strongly objected to this, by writing to the Management. In yesterday’s meeting, this issue was discussed in detail. The Director (HR) replied that the entire organisational structure may undergo a change, after the implementation of VRS. He assured that the views of the Recognised Unions will certainly be taken into account, when the matter is reviewed.  

Delay in remitting the LIC premium amount – BSNLEU demands the CMD BSNL should write to the Chairman of LIC.  
BSNLEU has already written to the CMD BSNL, demanding that he should write to the Chairman of LIC, requesting to condone the delay in remitting premium amount of the LIC policies, already deducted from the salaries of the employees. BSNLEU informed the Director (HR) that, on it’s part BSNLEU will also make attempts through AIIEA. The Director (HR) accepted the proposal and assured that the needful would be done.

Taking back the retrenched contract workers and payment of their wage arrears.
BSNLEU, together with the AUAB and BSNL CCWF, has been demanding that the retrenched contract workers should be taken back for duty and that their wage arrears should be paid immediately. The issue was once again discussed with the Director (HR) yesterday. The Union pointed out that extreme shortage of staff will arise after the implementation of VRS and to cope with that situation, the contract workers who are already retrenched, should be taken back. The Union also demanded that the 10 month wage arrears of the contract workers should be paid expeditiously. The Director (HR) replied that these issues would be looked into.

Payment of salary for the month of October.
In yesterday’s meeting, the Union enquired about the payment of October salary to the employees. The Director (HR) replied that there will be delay, but the Management is taking efforts on this issue.
