Singareni to re-employ eligible dismissed employees

The Singareni Collieries Company Ltd (SCCL) has announced plans to re-evaluate the dismissals of employees who were penalised for unauthorized absences between 2023 and 2025. A High-Power Committee has been established to review the cases of these ex-employees, who must be aged 46 years or younger as of April 1, 2026, to be eligible for re-employment.

To qualify, applicants must possess at least 100 muster days in any two of the five years preceding the dismissal period and must meet medical fitness standards for a Category-I post as a General Assistant Trainee (Underground). SCCL management has issued directives for the affected employees to submit their applications through the respective area and mine offices by November 14.

Area General Managers are tasked with reviewing eligible candidates and forwarding their applications to the relevant authorities for further action. For further information, interested parties can contact officials from their respective mines or departments.
