Tuesday, 18 Oct 2011

ET reported that employees unions of Coal India Ltd today withdrew their proposed 3 day strike after the management agreed to give higher bonus, along with INR 1,000 as Diwali gift.

CIL has reached an agreement with workers Unions to pay INR 20,000 bonus to each worker instead of earlier announced INR 17,000, besides INR 1,000 as Diwali gift.

The unions were demanding for a minimum bonus of INR 23,500 per employee.

The unions have decided not to proceed on 72 hour strike as announced earlier. The five workers' unions INTUC, the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC), the Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS) and the Bhartiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS) had threatened to proceed on strike if their demands of bonus and pay revision are not met.
