About 2,500 employees of Reliance Industries working at its plants here, will go on strike on Friday demanding a hike in Rs 33,000 bonus offered.
All three labour unions affiliated with AITUC, INTUC and BMS have given notice to the management of the company and labour commissioner in this regard.
Before merger of government-owned IPCL with Reliance in April 2007, they were employees of the government-owned IPCL.
Union leaders said RIL's bonus offer of Rs 33,000 was not acceptable to them. Last year it was Rs 40,000.
They also questioned the wisdom of RIL management on fixing different amounts of bonus for employees working in plants located in different parts of the country.
Union leaders said RIL's profit is more than Rs 11,000 cr.
