Raising the minimum pay is no real benefit to the present employees who are supposed to be drawing pay more than the minimum. It may be beneficial to new recruits and there is a freeze on fresh appointments due to downsizing the establishment. Benefit accrues to the present employees only if the fitment factor or multiplication factor as demanded by staff associations i.e.,3.74 is accepted. So the proposed strike from 11-7 2016 is inevitable to achieve the demands.
