RAILWAYS LIKELY TO GRANT 78 DAYS WAGES AS BONUS FOR THE YEAR 2012-13

Railways likely to declare 78-day bonus

Despite financial constraint, Railways is likely to announce 78-day wages as bonus, same as last year, for its employees for 2012-13.

"The proposal for declaring 78-day productivity-linked bonus for railway employees is being finalised with railway unions and it will go to the Cabinet for a final decision," a senior Railway Ministry official said.

Productivity-linked bonus is paid to railway employees each year before the Dussehra festival.
