An Extraordinary Gazette notification stipulating Rs. 1350 as the daily wage and Rs.350 as the productivity-based incentive for the tea and rubber plantation workers was issued by the Wages Board last night.
According to the Gazette notification which was issued under the Wages Board Ordinance, the total daily wage is declared as Rs 1700.
The gazette notification also said that any objections to the proposal will be received by the chairman of the Board by 12.00 noon on August 28 as well.
Meanwhile, at least three plantation Trade Unions refused to sign the proposal saying it violated workers' rights and claimed it was only beneficial for companies. (Northeastern Monitor/ August 14/2024)
