Trade Unions at coal India which is the worlds largest miner of coal have called for a 50 percent raise for workers
The move could potentially increase costs of the fuel that contributes to over two-thirds of India’s electricity.
The demand comes due to expectations for rising profits in coming years largely thanks to a reduction in team and plans to increase production.
Coal India revises salaries of non -executive staff ever 5 years which generally leads to a 20 to 25 percent increase.
Although high some believe the unions position could be a bargaining tactic.
