BSNL Plans Of Hiring 10,000 Employees
The state-run telecommunication company Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) is planning to hire nearly 10,000 employees, reports said on Monday.
The telecom company is looking at hiring about 10,000 people for its marketing and sales division in the next two years, which is contrary to the suggestion made by Pitroda panel.
The Pitroda panel recommended BSNL to reduce its excess staff base by 1,00,000 to save cost on wages. The Panel said, "retire or transfer 100,000 employees by schemes like VRS". Besides, BSNL employees opposed the recommendation and threatened to go on strike if implemented.
The panel headed by Sam Pitroda, also suggested 30 per cent disinvestment in the telecom company.
BSNL, which failed to utilise the 2G market, is now intending on acquiring maximum market in providing 3G services.
