&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Wages and salaries raised with effect from January 1; planters asked to clear dues before July-end&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Siliguri: &lt;/em&gt;The state labour department issued a notification on Tuesday for an interim hike of 15 per cent in wages of workers and salaries of staff and sub-staff in tea gardens of north Bengal with retrospective effect from January 1.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the notification issued by state labour commissioner Amarnath Mallick, the daily wage would increase from the existing Rs 202 to Rs 232. The staff and the sub-staff (non-managerial employees) will receive a flat hike of 15 per cent in their existing gross salaries.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;The new rates will be effective from January 1. Tea companies have been requested to clear the arrears (from January) in two instalments by the end of July,&amp;rdquo; said a source in the labour department.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In the past few months, the labour department had held talks between trade union leaders and planters for an interim hike in the wages and the salaries of the workforce. However, the planters&amp;rsquo; associations and unions could not reach a consensus on the rate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Earlier this month, chief minister Mamata Banerjee had announced the hike at a public meeting in Alipurduar district.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Altogether, over three lakh workers and around 10,000 staffers and sub-staffers serve the north Bengal tea sector.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Tea planters said they were worried over the rise in the cost of production following the pay hike. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Wages and salaries raised with effect from January 1; planters asked to clear dues before July-end&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Siliguri: &lt;/em&gt;The state labour department issued a notification on Tuesday for an interim hike of 15 per cent in wages of workers and salaries of staff and sub-staff in tea gardens of north Bengal with retrospective effect from January 1.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the notification issued by state labour commissioner Amarnath Mallick, the daily wage would increase from the existing Rs 202 to Rs 232. The staff and the sub-staff (non-managerial employees) will receive a flat hike of 15 per cent in their existing gross salaries.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;The new rates will be effective from January 1. Tea companies have been requested to clear the arrears (from January) in two instalments by the end of July,&amp;rdquo; said a source in the labour department.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In the past few months, the labour department had held talks between trade union leaders and planters for an interim hike in the wages and the salaries of the workforce. However, the planters&amp;rsquo; associations and unions could not reach a consensus on the rate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Earlier this month, chief minister Mamata Banerjee had announced the hike at a public meeting in Alipurduar district.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Altogether, over three lakh workers and around 10,000 staffers and sub-staffers serve the north Bengal tea sector.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Tea planters said they were worried over the rise in the cost of production following the pay hike. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Tea workers and staff get interim hike of 15% in pay -Avijit Sinha

-The Telegraph Wages and salaries raised with effect from January 1; planters asked to clear dues before July-end Siliguri: The state labour department issued a notification on Tuesday for an interim hike of 15 per cent in wages of workers and salaries of staff and sub-staff in tea gardens of north Bengal with retrospective effect from January 1. According to the notification issued by state labour commissioner Amarnath Mallick, the daily wage would increase from the existing Rs 202 to Rs 232. The staff and the sub-staff (non-managerial employees) will receive a flat hike of 15 per cent in their existing gross salaries. “The new rates will be effective from January 1. Tea companies have been requested to clear the arrears (from January) in two instalments by the end of July,” said a source in the labour department. In the past few months, the labour department had held talks between trade union leaders and planters for an interim hike in the wages and the salaries of the workforce. However, the planters’ associations and unions could not reach a consensus on the rate. Earlier this month, chief minister Mamata Banerjee had announced the hike at a public meeting in Alipurduar district. Altogether, over three lakh workers and around 10,000 staffers and sub-staffers serve the north Bengal tea sector. Tea planters said they were worried over the rise in the cost of production following the pay hike.   Please click here to read more.
