This is good right to retire 50+ age employees ? They are not the most productive ones.

So what how much money will bsnl save from this ?
 
Money saved was written as 7000 crores (only) if 70k to 80k employees opt for VRS.
 
that saved in terms of salary per year not including money paid for VRS.

What I meant to ask is how much money they get paid as salary vs opt for VRS
 
Yep, I am interested in that well.

So say someone has been working with BSNL for 20 years now, what is the lump sum payout that he or she would get on opting for VRS?
 
As is known, the biggest chunk of the bailout package is the nearly Rs 30,000-crore voluntary retirement scheme (VRS) through which the government plans to trim the company’s huge workforce of nearly 1.65 lakh, which eats up 77% of its revenues.

I am not good with salary maths.

vrs is for 50+ age employees so lets say average age of those who opt for vrs is 55 and bsnl save 5x7000 cr = 35000 cr. Thats not a huge saving from 30000cr allotted for vrs. And if all 70-80k don't opt for vrs.

This is very crude calculation and I feel its wrong. I will update after some research.
 

According to reports, employees above the age of 53.5 years will get 125% of their salary, which they could have earned in the balance period of their service. Employees in the age bracket of 50 to 53.5 years opting for VRS will get benefit in the range of 80 to 100% of the remuneration to be paid in the balance period of their service. For employees over 55 years of age opting for VRS, the pension will be computed only when they attain 60 years of age (the current retirement age).


how these news sites are getting away with copy pasted content.
 
So BSNL will pay people to retire instead of paying them to work. Some how I think in the short and medium term this is a very bad plan. Will leave them severely short staffed.
