"There have been several demands about the work culture, seamless functioning of offices and several recommendations about employee welfare that have been pending. The union has been demanding a restructuring of the hierarchy for the RTO workforce owing to computerisation and changes in the system, which have made many posts redundant. There is a need to reorganise the system. The protests have been started to press for all such demands," Surendra Sartape, general secretary of the RTO Employees' Union, said.
He added that the implementation of the new system has also been stalled for the past few years owing to technical issues.
Sartape informed that owing to the protest and strike by RTO employees, the government will incur a loss of Rs 50 crore.
Presently, the state of Maharashtra has 54 functioning RTOs spread across different cities.
