Sir: My father is an employee of Pakistan Steel Mills (PSM), Karachi. All employees of PSM are paid very late, almost on the 20th of every second month. This is a matter of huge inconvenience to the employees. They have to pay their utility bills, schools and tuition fees of their children, etc, at the start of a month. The late payment causes a number of problems, as this is their only source of income. It is my request that the government and the relevant authorities pay attention to this issue.
