The NC-JCM and other employee unions are actively advocating for significant pay increases. The main suggestions are to revive the Old Pension Scheme (OPS), set a new fitment factor multiplier, and increase the minimum basic wage to ₹69,000.

The final recommendations are anticipated to be completed and implemented between late 2026 and 2027; however, the changed compensation structure is anticipated to be introduced retroactively from January 1, 2026.
