8,600 APSRTC Workers Demand Timely Wages Amid Salary Delays
Outsourced workers of APSRTC are facing financial distress due to delayed salaries, urging for transparency in PF and ESI deposits.
Outsourced workers of the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) are sounding the alarm as nearly 8,600 employees report severe financial difficulties owing to persistent salary delays. Union leaders are calling for immediate action, demanding timely wages and transparency regarding Provident Fund (PF) and Employees' State Insurance (ESI) deposits.
The workers are not only looking for their salaries to be paid on time but also for a statewide online monitoring system to ensure accountability and prevent future lapses. This situation raises pressing questions about the government's commitment to the welfare of its workers and the management of essential services. What measures are being taken to address these grievances, and who is responsible for the oversight?
As reported by The Hindu, these employees are now holding the APSRTC accountable for what they describe as a systemic failure that threatens their financial stability and livelihood. The time for action is now, and the workers demand answers from those in power.
