Demand to Take Action Against Contractor, Company

The New Panther Kamgar Sena demanded action against those contractors and companies for not giving bonuses to the contractual workers along with the permanent employees. A memorandum of demand was submitted to the deputy commissioner (labour), Chandrakant Raut.

According to the memorandum, the contractors and companies hire contractual workers for working in the establishments. However, the Diwali bonus is given only to the permanent employees and not to them. The contractual workers work similarly to the permanent employees. During Diwali, they do not receive the bonus, and hence they cannot celebrate the festival. Therefore, they should receive the bonus like the permanent employees. Strict action should be taken against those contractors and companies who do not give bonuses to the contractual workers, demanded Kamgar Sena president Anil Jamdhade and others through the memorandum.

They had requested to receive their salaries and bonuses in advance for celebrating the Diwali festival. Accordingly, they were given the salary of one month and the same amount as a bonus in a function organized at the Grampanchayat.

The employees were given salaries, bonuses, uniforms, and sweets. Sarpanch Vaishali Raut, Deputy Sarpanch Reshma Akhtar, former Sarpanch Shaikh Akhtar, Akram Patel, KV Gaikwad, Kakaji Bhole, and others were present.
