ISLAMABAD ( MEDIA REPORT )

Mobilink and Warid, amid the merger and integration of both the companies, announced a Voluntary Separation Scheme for all Mobilink and Warid employees.

This VSS will be valid for all direct employees, employees on contract or any other work-force that’s somehow related with both the companies in official capacity.

Under this scheme, employees of both the companies can voluntarily separate themselves from the company while enjoying benefits that are offered with the VSS.

Mobilink said that it decision to offer a voluntary separation scheme is to provide an opportunity to employees to pursue their career ambitions elsewhere if they choose to do so. “This is in line with Mobilink’s vision of being an empowering employer”, said a Mobilink spokesperson.

Mobilink further explained this scheme does not put job security at risk and that employees that opt for this scheme are being compensated with financial benefits which are above and beyond the industry norms.

According to details Mobilink and Warid employees who opt for VSS will be offered:

  • One gross salary x 1.5 x number of years with Mobilink or Warid
  • Free medical insurance for one year
  • Any provident fund

Employees can apply for VSS till November 4th, 2016 after which an evaluation process will start. Mobilink said that the decision to accept or reject any application remains with the management.

Any employee can simply go ahead and login to their company portal to see how much funds they are going get if they choose to opt for VSS.

Warid and Mobilink employees can apply from the portal itself and then wait for a decision that will be made after application period will end.
