PANAJI: Pre-primary helpers working under the Government of Goa have announced a one-day protest to press for better service conditions, fair remuneration and retirement benefits.
Through a protest appeal, the helpers have put forward six key demands, calling for the government to address what they describe as long-pending concerns affecting their employment and financial security.
Their demands include a fair and timely revision of salaries, restoration of the 30-day service period and an increase in the retirement age to 65 years.
The helpers have also sought retirement benefits of ₹7 lakh for all members, along with Provident Fund and gratuity benefits. A 3% annual salary increment for all staff is another key demand.
Under the campaign slogan ‘Stand Together for Fairness and Respect’, the employees have called for unity and dignity for educators, highlighting the need for improved recognition and benefits for pre-primary helpers.
The protest campaign is being organised by Pre-Primary Helpers, Government of Goa, under the banner of ‘Unity, Justice, Fair Rights and Dignity for Educators’.
