Coal India workers bag big bucks as Reddy dishes out rewards

Union Minister G Kishan Reddy declared performance bonuses for coal sector employees on Friday. Workers from Coal India Limited and Singareni Collieries will receive Rs 1,03,000 each. The announcement covers 2.09 lakh CIL employees and 3,800 Singareni workers. These rewards recognize exceptional contributions to India's coal production efforts.

The ministry enhanced employee benefits through multiple welfare initiatives. Insurance coverage expanded to Rs 1 crore without employee premium payments. Non-permanent staff gained insurance protection for the first time. Ex-gratia compensation increased from Rs 15 lakh to Rs 25 lakh for affected families.

Management introduced uniform dress codes across all coal companies. The policy applies from top executives to frontline workers. This measure promotes equality within the coal workforce. Minister Reddy praised Prime Minister Modi's leadership in worker welfare policies.
