Central govt employees unhappy about delay in implementation of pay hike

2017-11-01T20:56:00.000+05:30

New Delhi: Central government employees unions expressed unhappiness over the Modi government’s inordinate delay in pay hike.

The unions leaders sought the FM Arun Jaitley’s intervention in the pay hike issue.

It seems that a strong sense of resentment is growing among 4.8 million central government employees and 5.5 million pensioners over minimum pay hike beyond the 7th Pay Commission recommendations.

Several media reports say Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had promised on June 30, 2016 to raise minimum pay of the central government employees, but the government has failed to implement pay hike till date.

Expressing dissatisfaction over the National Anomaly Committee (NAC), which has been formed to look into the pay irregularities arising out of the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendations, the unions leaders sought the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s intervention in the issue.

Central government employees unions, have pointed out that even one year passed after the formation of the NAC still NAC could not conclude pay hike report.

The NAC is making all efforts to meet last month, which was postponed.

“Even after four months of implementation of the revised allowances, we are still awaiting a nod from the government for getting pay hike,” a leader of employees unions said.

However, media reports say, NAC is going to suggest minimum pay Rs 21,000 from Rs 18,000 with fitment factor 3.00 from the existing 2.57 but unions are demanding for hiking minimum pay Rs 18,000 to Rs 26,000 and they are pressurizing to raise fitment factor 3.68 times from 2.57 times.

The economic experts are worried about the GST and note ban’s effect on exchequer. If such a situation is not chaos, then how is government going to hike minimum pay Rs 21,000?

However, the issue of hike in minimum pay for central government employees beyond the pay commission recommendations is likely to be taken up by the Union Cabinet in January after the completion of Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh assemblies’ poll process, according to media reports.

If fitment formula is tinkered with 3.00, the salary and pension in general for all segments of employees will go up.

The Union Cabinet on June 29, 2016 had approved recommendations of the 7th Pay commission and gave nod minimum pay from Rs 7,000 to Rs 18,000 per month as well as fitment factor of pay fixation uniformly was approved 2.57 times of basic pay of sixth pay commission for all central government employees.

7th Pay Commission: Minimum pay hike confirmed, salary may go up to Rs 21,000 from Rs 18,000; here are details

2017-10-31T21:00:00.001+05:30

7th Pay Commission Minimum Pay Hike: Reportedly, Narendra Modi government has finally given a green signal for the hike in minimum pay and fitment factor of the Central government employees. This is a big news for Central government employees.

It seems now the good news of hike in minimum pay of Central government employees is not too far. Reportedly, Narendra Modi government has finally given a green signal for the hike in minimum pay and fitment factor of the Central government employees. This is a big news for Central government employees. Now, National Anomaly Committee (NAC) and Department of Expenditure will take a final call on the matter. NAC has got the nod from the government to increase minimum salary and fitment factor, according to a report in Jansatta. Now, it is being expected that the minimum salary will go up to Rs 21,000 from Rs 18,000.
NAC was formed to look into various pay related anomalies arising out of the implementation of the Seventh Central Pay Commission’s recommendations. The 22-member panel is being headed by Secretary, Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) and has members of both the official and staff side.
“It has been decided to set up the anomaly committee of the National Council (Joint Consultative Machinery) consisting of representatives of the official side and the staff side to settle any anomalies arising out of the implementation of the Pay Commission’s recommendations,” an order issued by the DoPT said.
Earlier, on June 28, in a bonanza to 48 lakh central government employees, the Union Cabinet had approved recommendations of 7th Central Pay Commission with 34 modifications.

2017-10-21T12:21:00.000+05:30

NEW DELHI: The Railway Board has empowered Divisional Railway Managers (DRM) to re-engage retired rail personnel for appropriate posts in the sector.

In a letter dated October 16, the board gave the power to the DRMs to employ pensioners at their discretion.

"While re-engagement of such staff, medical fitness of the appropriate category should be obtained from the designated authorities as per existing practices," it said.

The Northern Railways has already released a notification inviting retired railway employees to apply for 4,500 vacant positions in various departments.

The board's letter also said suitability or competence of the staff should be adjudged before the re-engagement and their safety record as well as other operational requirements adequately addressed.

The offer for re-engagement, the board said, stands till September 14, 2018, and they have to be discharged once selected candidates join from the Railway Recruitment Board.

Air India employees unions to meet on divestment

2017-10-20T13:47:00.000+05:30

New Delhi: Air India unions are likely to meet next week in the national capital to discuss their strategy amid the government going ahead with the disinvestment process.

People familiar with the matter say efforts are on to bring all staff unions of Air India including those of the pilots and engineers on one platform and work out a strategy to deal with the situation arising out of the government’s decision to offload its stake in the flag carrier.

Air India, which has over 20,000 employees on its roll, has as many as six recognised unions, representing ground and commercial staff, pilots, cabin crew and engineers, among others, besides, several unrecognised unions.

To revive the loss-making state-run carrier, which also has a debt burden of over Rs 50,000 crore, the government has decided to go for its strategic disinvestment and the modalities are being worked out by a Group of Ministers headed by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) had on June 28 given in-principle nod for strategic divestment of Air India and five of its subsidiaries. The government has already invited applications for engaging up to two advisers, a legal adviser and asset valuer for the strategic disinvestment of Air India and its subsidiaries/ joint venture.

The finance ministry, which has been pumping small doses of money every year into Air India, seems reluctant to spend more. The airline had landed up in this situation because of the loans it had taken to add some 111 aircraft to its ageing and depleted fleet.

Earlier this month, Tata conglomerate showed interest in bidding for Air India as the group needs to increase the sizes of its aviation business.

According to media reports, some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo, owned by InterGlobe Aviation, ground handling company Bird Group and Turkey’s Celebi Aviation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air India’s various businesses.

As many as 17,721 parcels were handled by western region in October

With consumers making more online purchases during the festival season, the Postal Department saw a jump in the e-commerce packets it handled in the western region this year.

An official with the department in Coimbatore said that Amazon continued to have the largest volume with more than 5,000 parcels.

7th Pay Commission: ‘Black Diwali’ For Central Govt Employees

2017-10-19T12:06:00.001+05:30

The Sen Times

New Delhi: Salaries and allowances of central government employees have seen hikes in 2016 and 2017 respectively but raising the minimum pay has remained static ever since the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendations was approved one and a half years ago.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had promised to hike minimum pay for the central government employees day after the cabinet approval of the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendations, June 30, 2016.

“The minimum pay of central government employees Rs 18,000 was made on recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission. But government will consider hiking it after discussions with all stakeholders,” Finance minister Arun Jaitley had earlier said in a meeting with the central government employees’ unions leaders on June 30, 2016.

This announcement had thrilled the central government employees for getting more hike in pay but it’s almost now like rubbing salt into the wounds of millions of central government employees.

The cabinet had given nod overall 23.55 percent increase in salaries, allowances and pension in June, 2016 but shockingly, minimum pay Rs 18, 000 of the central government employees have been unchanged.

The central government employees unions have been demanding minimum pay Rs 26,000 and asked to raising fitment factor 3.68 times from 2.57 times. However, the government has never refused to budge, pretext financial crunch etc but has not accepted till date.

Unwilling to tolerate the government insensitivity any longer, the central government employees unions have now decided to observe Dharna today.

“After a full month’s work, we get just Rs 18,900 including dearness allowance as pay. so we can’t even feed our children properly through that. So how can we celebrate Diwali? It’s only politicians and bureaucrats who can celebrate the festival,” said one of the low paid central government employees.

So far, the plight of central government employees has failed to move the government. However, the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has done little to support the employees’ demand to form National Anomaly Committee (NAC) headed by Secretary, Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) in September, 2016 to look into pay anomalies arising out of the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendations.

“The NAC meeting is likely to be held in this month. And the government has asked the NAC to go ahead for hike in minimum pay Rs 21,000 from Rs 18,000 from the existing 2.57 to fitment factor 3.00,” a top official of the finance ministry told The Sen Times on condition of anonymity.

“The Union Cabinet will take up the proposal for hike in pay with fitment factor 3.00 in January,” the official assured.

“If the 2.57 fitment formula is tinkered with, then salary and pension in general for all segments of employees will go up,” the official confirmed.

The government is still dithering over whether to hike pay of its employees, hence, Diwali this time will be a dark one for the central government employees.

7th Pay Commission update: Rajasthan govt implements recommendations

2017-10-19T11:21:00.000+05:30

Giving a Diwali bonanza to over 12 lakh state employees, Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje on Tuesday announced to implement the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission. The state government employees will get the revised salary from the month of October. Rajasthan Chief Minister Raje in a statement said that she had promised to implement the pay commission's recommendation in the 2017-18 budget and was happy to implement it from October. She further said that a panel had been authorised to examine cases of salary discrepancies, allowances and arrears. "The state government considers its employees the backbone of governance and was sensitive towards their welfare," the statement said.

Rajasthan is the latest entrant in the league of states that have announced to implement the recommendations made by 7th Pay Commission. States such as Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Haryana, Tripura, Tamil Nadu and Goa have already announced their decisions.

Earlier this month, the Tamil Nadu state Cabinet consented to implement the recommendations of Pay Commission. After the implementation of the decision, salaries for state government employees and teachers will reportedly increase by 20 per cent. This move will benefit more than 10 lakh government employees and pensioners in the state. However, the revised salary will be effective from October 1, 2017, which would mean losing arrears for 21 months which the state government employees were expecting. While accepting the recommendations by the 7th Pay Commission, the Tamil Nadu Cabinet under Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami did not agree to enact the changes from a retrospective date. The government employees in Tamil Nadu were expecting that the pay panel recommendations will be put into effect from January 1, 2016.

Tamil Nadu state government employees' expectations were somewhat justifiable as many state governments and even the central government had approved the pay commission's recommendation from the back date. Recently, the Union cabinet cleared revised pay scales for about 7.58 lakh teachers and academic staff of higher educational institutions following the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission. In a press statement, the central government said that the approved pay scales would be applicable from January 2016.

Post office fined Rs 1 lakh for delay in delivery

2017-10-16T20:13:00.000+05:30

Plea by Punjab Public Service Commission aspirant upheld

Upholding a judgment passed by the Punjab State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) said earlier this month that the post office concerned in Mohali was required to compensate a Punjab Public Service Commission aspirant after his application was not delivered on time.
The NCDRC also upheld the State commission’s order for compensation of ₹1 lakh to the aspirant.

Speed Post Indiapost

Disqualified from exam

The aspirant had alleged that despite sending his application form for the examination on time the post office had failed to deliver it on time to the authorities concerned, which led to his disqualification from the examination.
“The citizen’s charter of India Post has declared the time for speed post within same circle as one or two days. Patiala, where the speed post was to be delivered, is just 70 km from Mohali. He [the complainant] came to know that the speed post was wrongly sent to Delhi,” read the order dated October 6.
In defence, the respondents contested the claim citing relevant sections from the Indian Post Office Act stating that “no officer shall incur any liability by reason of any such loss, misdelivery, delay or damage unless the same was caused fraudulently or by wilful act or default”.
Rejecting the claim, the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum in Mohali had in 2013 directed the post office to compensate the complainant by paying ₹50,000.
“Not delivering the speed post article to its addressee clearly constituted a wilful act of deficiency in service on their part,” the order had read.
The opposite parties contested the claim and appealed to the State commission. However, the State forum not only upheld the order but also increased the compensation amount to ₹1 lakh.

Aspirant traumatised

“The complainant had prepared for the examination and had undergone trauma when his application was received late. In our view, ₹1 lakh will be adequate compensation,” read the State commission’s order.
Upholding the same, the NCDRC said the postal service “cannot take shelter behind Section 6 of the Indian Postal Act to absolve of its responsibility by merely stating that the complainant should have kept track of the article on the postal website. There is a clear cut of deficiency of service on their part.”

IDBI bank employees to go for 2 days strike

2017-10-16T20:07:00.000+05:30

The United Forum of IDBI Officers and Employees is planning a strike on October 24 and 25 to protest the ‘inadequate response’ to the long-pending demand for a wage hike.

The latest offer amounted to a hike of only between 7 per cent and 8 per cent against a demand of 15 per cent due from as far back as November 1, 2012, the Forum said.

MORE PAIN POINTS

The Forum could not accept the proposal for this and other reasons, Ratnakar Wankhade and Vithal Koteswara Rao AV, joint convenors, explained.

Other pain points include introduction of a concept of additional protection allowance and withdrawal of certain pay slip components from the date of settlement.

When combined, these would have a deleterious effect on the gross emoluments and superannuation benefits. So the Forum had no other option but to reject the proposal.

Similarly, the bank’s response to all other crucial issues raised by the Forum forming part of the strike notice has been apathetic and evasive.

Individually, the officers and employees' associations have adopted utmost restraint and used all persuasive efforts at their command to avoid a confrontation.

“But, owing to the lack of a reciprocal approach from the bank, we have been pushed to an inevitable situation of intensifying the agitation and declaring a fresh plan of action culminating in the two-day nation-wide strike,” they stated.

They recalled that after the deferred one-day strike action on May 23, many rounds of discussions were held with the bank.

PARLIAMENTARY PANEL VIEW

As responsible trade unions, constituents of the Forum did not rush with a major escalation of action, keeping in view the larger interest of the bank in terms of infusion of capital by the Centre and concomitant signing of an MoU on a turnaround plan.

“We had no reason to disbelieve the assurance from the head of the institution that he would personally intervene and resolve the issue amicably before July. But this has proved to be futile.”

The Parliamentary Committee on Petitions, Lok Sabha, which deliberated on the wage revision during their study visit to Goa on August 21, is learnt to be convinced of the rationale and legitimacy of the demand for wage hike of 15 per cent.

“The committee, to our information, was unanimous in exhorting the representatives of the bank and the Centre to accede to the demand.”

Earlier, the Forum was informed that the bank has made provision in the balance sheet towards impending wage revision with a 12.5 per cent load hike.

Meanwhile, C.H. Venkatachalam, General Secretary, All India Bank Employees' Association, and S Nagarajan, General Secretary, All India Bank Officers' Association, have extended their support to the strike call given by peers at IDBI Bank.

New Pension Scheme (NPS) for railway employees not workable - AIRF

2017-10-16T19:57:00.002+05:30

The Government of India, in its different departments, has recruited over 5 lakh employees since 2004, including one lakh employees in the Indian Railways. The new officials and employees, recruited under the new pension scheme are not finding the new scheme workable.

The market-linked pension scheme would have 10 per cent contributory fund by Government and 10 per cent by the employees. In this, Government knows the money is being used, but the employee does not have any information regarding the use of its funds, said AIRF General Secretary, Shivagopal Mishra while addressing the press conference on Tuesday at the West Central Railway Employees’ Union (WCREU) office. He is in city to attend the Youth Zonal Conference of WCREU.

He added that the new pension scheme has various lapses. First, it is market-linked and has limited provisions for withdrawal. Its provision is against employee’s benefits
that is benefits provisions would end if the service is not complete. On this issue, when the AIRF gave a notice of strike to the Government, the present Government constituted a committee to review the demands of AIRF. “We are demanding guarantee pension scheme for the employees that is 50 per cent of last salary. On death or permanent disability of the employee, the compensation should be given as per old scheme. On this, the Government has shown some positive response, while also, the committee constituted has given recommendations in this direction, asking the Government to accept this demand,” he said.

He further said that, every year, around 400 to 500 employees die on duty. In these incidents, a number of linemen and trackmen lose their lives. We are demanding that like the Indian Army has been exempted from the new scheme, the Indian Railways employees and officials should be exempted from the new pension scheme provisions.

Commenting on the outsourcing trending in Railways, Mishra strongly criticized the ongoing outsourcing and said that outsourcing of important works in Railways would not be tolerated. We are demand the Government to fill all 1.25 lakh vacancies in safety and security departments, as without manpower of Railways, proper instrumentation and equipment, the security of Railways is not possible, he added.

After recent incidents, the Government has ordered to fill all vacancies in Railways and now, following pressure, now again the decision is being reviewed. He lastly added that if Railways does not have any option for privatisation of every work, the AIRF would have no other option left, but to go on strike. He said, Railways is the lifeline of country’s economy. If we go on strike, it would add fuel to the ongoing impact of recession in the country.

Employees do not waste a single Paisa ! Air India Chief

2017-10-16T17:41:00.002+05:30

Cost consciousness is one of the core areas that can improve the financial of Air India and employees must ensure that not even a single 'paisa' is wasted for a better future, airline chief Rajiv Bansal has said. Bansal, who took over the charge of the top position in the disinvestment-bound airline in late August, in a message to the employees, has also urged them to be economical and adopt thrifty work practises without compromising with safety and quality.

"Cost consciousness is another core area to improve the financial health of the company. While we strive to make improvements in our services, be it in-flight catering or entertainment, aircraft cabin ambiance, lounges and offices, we must ensure that not even a single 'paisa' is wasted," Bansal said.

The Government-run Air India has a little over 21,000 employees on its payroll.

"We ought to shun all avoidable and wasteful expenditure and adopt thrifty work practises without compromising with safety and quality," the Air India Chairman and Managing Director said in the message.

As per the provisional numbers announced by the Government in July, the airline's net loss after tax narrowed to Rs 3,643 crore and operating profit rose to Rs 300 crore in the last financial year.

The airline had posted a net loss of Rs 3,836.77 crore and an operating profit of Rs 105 crore in 2015-16 fiscal.

However, the expenditure went up to Rs 25,789 crore in the last financial year, as per the provisional numbers.

In 2015-16, the same was lower at Rs 24,361.33 crore.

The Air India chief also said since his assuming the charge of the airline he has been "focusing upon a few core areas which play a vital role in determining the success of a service company like ours."

Ensuring that AI flights leave on-time and its customers are satisfied is extremely important to generate brand loyalty, he said.

Surviving on a ten-year bailout package amounting to Rs 30,231 crore which began from 2012, the airline is currently in the disinvestment process.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) gave its in-principle nod for the strategic disinvestment of the airline which has a debt burden of more than Rs 50,000 crore in June this year.

Bansal, in his message, also said "whether it is our personal or professional front, we need to tighten our belt and face the challenging financial situation with grit and determination."

The strength of an organisation lies in its disciplined and committed workforce, he said adding, "it is, therefore, essential that we dedicate ourselves to these core values of punctuality, fitness, cleanliness and cost consciousness for a brighter future ahead."

News update on National Anomaly Committee (NAC) meeting and pay hike

2017-10-16T17:32:00.000+05:30

7th Pay Commission : Update on NAC meet and pay hike

The National Anomaly Committee is set to meet to discuss the hike in pay beyond the 7th Pay Commission. The meeting that was scheduled to be held on October 7 was postponed and now the matter is expected to be taken up anytime before the end of this month. The NAC is meeting to decide on the proposal to hike the basic minimum pay for Central Government employees. Although no official date has been given, sources say that the NAC is making all necessary arrangements to meet this month itself.

Latest update on NAC meet

The NAC was formed by the Union Government to look into the pay anomalies arising out of the pay panel's recommendations. Sources say that considering the fact that the government wants to take a final decision on basic minimum pay by January 2018 itself, the NAC is making all efforts to hold the meeting this month itself.

Why was NAC meet postponed

CG employees and pensioners were eagerly waiting for the NAC meet to take place. It was scheduled to be held on October 7. However there were some deliberations and discussions that were pending and hence the meeting was postponed. Moreover the decision to raise the fitment factor from 2.57 to 3 times was being discussed. If the fitment factor is raised to 3 times then the pay would go up from Rs 18,000 to Rs 21,000. However many employees were hoping that the pay is hiked to Rs 26,000.

What is the NAC’s final decision

The NAC basically will tow the line of the government. The government has made it clear that the fitment factor be risen to 3 times and for now it cannot go beyond that. With the government indicating that it has the funds to rise the basic minimum pay, the NAC meeting will vote in majority of what the government wants. While not many would be happy with the pay hike of Rs 21,000, sources in the government say that for now that would be the amount and over the next year or so the pay would vary.

7th Pay Commission: What will teachers earn after pay hike

2017-10-15T22:05:00.001+05:30

With the government approving the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission for teachers, a big pay hike is on the way.

The benefits which will be applicable to the teaching faculty of central, state universities and aided colleges will see an increase in entry pay growth by 22 to 28 per cent.

What will teachers earn:
'The implementation of the pay revision will enhance the teachers' pay in the range of Rs 10,400 and Rs 49,800 as against the extant entry pay due to the implementation of the 6th Pay Commission for the pay of teachers,' a government statement said. Teachers of 119 centrally-funded technical institutions such as IITs, IISc, IIMs, IISERs (Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research) and NITIE (National Institute of Industrial Engineering) are also eligible for revision of pay. Besides Central universities, 329 universities funded by state governments and 12,912 government and private-aided colleges which are affiliated to state public universities are also eligible for salary revision.
The Cabinet's decision on revision of pay scales for teachers will cost the state exchequer nearly Rs 9,800 crore annually. The revised pay scales will be effective from January 1, 2016. For state government funded institutions, the revised pay scales will require adoption by the respective state governments. The Centre, however, will bear the additional burden of the states on account of pay scale revision.

The Centre which approved the hike under the 7th Pay Commission will bear the additional burden of the states on account of revision of pay scales. The measures proposed in the revised pay structure are expected to improve quality of higher education and also attract and retain talent,' Javadekar said. The annual central financial liability on account of this measure would be about Rs 9,800 crore.
