The employees union of Maruti Udyog Limited (MUL) has threatened to cut down production by 53 per cent to base levels if the MUL management fails to implement the ''promised incentive scheme'' for achieving higher productivity levels.
Stating that revision of incentives has been due for around one and a half years, the Maruti Udyog Employees Union (MUEU) alleged that the company management was resorting to pressure tactics in the form of suspension of union leaders instead of resolving the issue.
The union will also contemplate going on strike and bringing in outside unions if talks with the management head for a collision, MUEU General Secretary Mathew Abraham told UNI in New Delhi on Wednesday.
''Under the memorandum of understanding between MUL and government of India in 1986, the government had agreed to share 65 per cent of the additional gain of productivity with the employees.”
Mr Abraham further alleged that the pension scheme and promotion policies are not being implemented. Further, the scheme of rewarding jobs to employees' children is also not being implemented. ''We want these issues also to be settled.''
