AIGETOA Served Notice for Organisational Call for settlement:

AIGETOA served Notice for Organisational Call in view of Complete Breach of Trust, Non redressal of burning HR issues including Standard Pay Scale E2-E3 & Pay Loss Issues, Non issuance of Promotion in AGM/CAO Equivalent Grades despite the verdict of Hon’ble Supreme Court, Non notification of SDE/AO Equivalent Grades RR, No headway on Revision in MS RR, Non Settlement of SDE Reversal Issue, Pending Superannuation Benefit (SAB) Quantum and amount, Scrapping of MT RR/DR DGM RR and replacement with Fast Track Promotional Methodology and resolving of our legitimate issues.

Earlier, an emergency meeting of Central Governing Body, Circle Secretaries and Circle Presidents of AIGETOA held on 09.07.2022 to deliberate and decide course of action on continued negligence by management in resolving outstanding legitimate HR issues pertains to the BSNL Executives and felt that management is totally non committal and no progress has been made on several important issues. It is observed that the association has always honoured the appeal of management and withdrawn call on previous occasions on the assurances and agreement reached, which were even released through above minutes but it is very unfortunate that management has gone back from its own promises resulting in the persistence of almost all issues.

About 13000 executives recruited/promoted by BSNL from 2009 to 2020 are suffering with severe losses in their total emoluments due to non approval of Standard Scale of E2-E3 Scale, which is a residual of 2nd PRC in BSNL. It is important to note that one hand about 30K BSNL Executives (whose last pay revision made on 01.01.2007) are struggling with Pay Issues and denying all legitimate dues on the name of financial crunch and other side senior managers are enjoying all Pay & Perks of 7th Pay Revision w.e.f. 01.01.2016 in same BSNL– It’s an Extreme Injustice as Equal Treatment Not Extended.

one side management is sitting on AGM/CAO Promotions of those executives working in preceding grade from 9-18 years despite of DOPT Order, while other side it took just 2-3 hours for the management to declare the results of MT Internal late night and no legal opinion, no consideration from any of the welfare organization etc was ever sought for as being asked in case of AGM/CAO Promotions in BSNL. Similarly, despite written assurance by the Dir(HR) for settlement of SDE Reversal issue, there is no takers in the system and issue is lingering since more than 2 years of its commitment and candidates are suffering enormously due to the fault of BSNL.

Finally after all deliberations, it is concluded that our all efforts to break the stalemate through dialogue is futile and our patience for getting resolution through amicable means has totally gone away as management has failed to keep their own words. Sensing no hope for any amicable resolution, participants of the CHQ-CS-CP Meet has decided to serve Organisational Call Notice for settlement of the long outstanding issues as listed below.
