‘Wage revision has been due for more than 46 months’
All trade unions of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant(VSP) have served a strike notice on the management of RINL-VSP on Tuesday threatening to go on 24-hour strike on June 29 for the achievement of their demands. In a statement on Tuesday, the trade union leaders noted that the wage revision of the workers of SAIL and RINL have fallen due for more than 46 months and they had waited patiently for the bipartite wage revision talks to commence. Workers, both permanent and contract, had contributed to the economic turnaround when the national economy was down due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they said.More Related News
