MANAGEMENT’S UNILATERAL ACTIONS CONTINUE-
EMERGENCY MEETING OF THE OFFICE BEARERS
In yet another glaring display of
unilateralism, our management is reportedly proceeding with the merger of Some
Zones in the name of restructuring which leads to only artificial solution and
multiplication of higher level executives. In spite of the strong protest by
the majority Officers’ and Employees’ Organizations, our management is
proceeding with the agenda of merger of some Zones bypassing the organizations
and created a serious gap in the confidence levels between the Trade unions
& the management.
Friends, our Federation has shown utmost
restraint and has taken all possible steps but the management does not appear
to be serious and sincere. Our Federation has been forced to wall.
Under these circumstances an emergency
meeting of the selected office bearers of the Federation would be held at our
Federation office, Mumbai on Thursday, the 20th March, 2014 to decide further
course of actions including organizational actions to protect the interest of
the officers.
Please await our further circulars.
WARM GREETINGS
Yours Sincerely,
Sd/-
(S.B. RODE)
GENERAL SECRETARY
