Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Limited (PTCL) President, Junaid Iqbal Khan on Thursday said the regularisation of 4,400 daily-wage workers will improve the operational efficiency of the organisation.
Speaking in a PTV programme, he said regularisation of daily-wage workers in the PTCL would boost employees' morale and bring positive impact on the organisation.
The PTCL chief said that in first phase 4,400 employees would be adjusted on vacant posts out of 7,193 employees, working in the corporation since 1992, adding the remaining daily-wage workers would be adjusted in the second phase.
In response to a question he said, the adjustment of 4,400 employees would cost Rs 189 million which was 0.2 percent of annual income of the organisation.
Junaid Iqbal said those workers would get the fringe benefits of medical, gratuity and annual leaves, adding the employees who had left the organisation would not be considered for regularisation.
Responding to a question he said that in future the PTCL would enrol employees in the organisation in accordance with the market-based term and conditions.
When asked people are still facing problems in getting telephone connections, the PTCL chief said problems would be overcome in next nine months as organisation was working to expend its network capacity.
In response to a question he said the PTCL had plan to introduce new billing system like other foreign countries in which user would be asked to select package of their own choice.
