Link: Pakistan: Protesting PTCL employees getting all privileges

Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) has said that protesting employees are getting all legitimate perks and privileges as per provisions of their contracts. In addition to that, the company had given them a reasonable raise in salaries and was ready to facilitate them further. The PTCL spokesperson through a press release said that these handfuls of 35-40 protesting workers are spreading misleading information. He said that after the privatisation of PTCL the new management provided all the necessary technical training to these NCPG employees to bring them in mainstream. PTCL provided technical training through its internal technical training programme to all its employees and adjusted in different departments. AT the same time PTCL is planning to offer better job opportunities through internal recruitment to all NCPG employees. Major rehabilitation programme is going on and PTCL never wanted to layoff any of its employees. PTCL extended rise of 15% on gross, which is equivalent to 40 % of basic salary to NCPG employees. This raise is more than the agreement terms. In addition, PTCL management is providing all the necessary benefits. “We work together as one team to satisfy customer requirements in telecommunication services and technology in a friendly and efficient manner,” the PTCL spokesman said.
