National Federation of Atomic Energy Employees (NFAEE) and its affiliate unions have threatened to go on a two-day strike on January 8 and 9 against the government's alleged anti-worker policy.

NFAEE, along with its affiliated unions, including Atomic Energy Workers' And Staff Union, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, NFC Industrial Workers Union, JAC Kalpakkam affiliated AITUC and CITU, has called a nationwide strike demanding scrapping of new pension scheme and restoring the old one.

In a statement issued here, NFAEE said the unions have also demanded increase in minimum pay and change in the fitment formula, removal of five per cent ceiling on compassionate appointments and grant appointment, fill up vacant posts and stop disinvestment in Central/ state public service vehicles and strategic sale, among others.
