Summary:
Before VSS got the contract, MCG had 700 outsourced staff provided by two companies. But it had hired 1,750 outsourced employees, in addition to 2,000 sanitation workers from five private firms. But months later, heads of various departments have failed to provide information on the outsourced staff linked to their respective departments.Till date, departmental heads have shared details of only 700 employees. Also, the service agreement between MCG and the firm did not bear the signature of any MCG official. Sources said the firm did not deposit the mandatory security amount, a month’s salary for outsourced employees, after winning the contract, which also did not bear signatures of MCG officials..
