CIRCULAR DATED 26^TH OCTOBER 2016

REVISION OF MINIMUM PAY AND FITMENT FORMULA

2^ND MEETING OF THE GROUP OF SENIOR OFFICERS WITH JCM (NC) STAFF SIDE

DISAPPOINTING

2^nd Meetings of the Group of Senior Officers (Constituted as per the assurance given by Group of Minister to NJCA) to discuss the grievances arising out of recommendations related to 7^th Central Pay Commission, was held with JCM (NC) staff side on 24.10.2016 at 4 PM. The staff side explained in detail the justification for modification in the minimum pay and fitment formula, which was already explained in the memorandum submitted to Cabinet Secretary on 10^th December 2015 and also in the presentation made before Joint Secretary Implementation Cell and Empowered Committee of Secretaries headed by Cabinet Secretary.

From the response of the Senior Officers, it is not clear whether they are mandated to submit a proposal on increasing the Minimum Pay and Fitment formula to Government, as assured by the Group of Ministers on 30^th June 2016. Eventhough, the time frame of four months is almost over, the urgency and seriousness was lacking on the part of the Group of officers. It seems that that Government is adopting a delaying tactics or to deny the assured increase. Perhaps, they may recommend an increase in minimum pay and fitment formula at a later date, but it is quite uncertain.

Confederation National Secretariat after reviewing these developments has decided to intensify the campaign and agitational programmes demanding the Government to honour its assurance given to NJCA leadership and also to settle the 20 point charter of demands. Make the 7^th November 2016 mass dharna programme a grand success. Ensure maximum participation of employees in the 15^th December 2016 massive Parliament March. Get ready for strike.

Important allowances like Children Education Allowance, Night Duty Allowance, Overtime Allowance, Cash Handling Allowance, Dress Allowance, Nursing Allowance, Patient Care Allowance, Family planning Allowance, Risk Allowance etc. are discussed. The Secretary, Department of Personnel gave a patient hearing and interacted with staff side on certain points. No commitment on any allowance was given.

JCM NATIONAL COUNCIL – STANDING COMMITTEE MEETING

The JCM (NC) Standing Committee meeting under the Chairmanship of Secretary, Department of Personnel was held on 25.10.2016. All agenda items were discussed. Some of the items are – JCM functioning, Compassionate appointments, amendment to the definition of anomaly, Changing MACP conditions, Ex-Servicemen pay fixation, Pay fixation option on promotion after the date of notification of CCS (RP) Rules 2016, GDS bonus enhancement to 7000/-, casual labour regularization and bonus enhancement, filling up of vacancies, upgradation of LDCs to UDCs, one time relaxation of LTC-80 availed by air by purchasing tickets from other than authorized agents, Restoration of Festival Advance, Natural Calamity Advance and Advance of leave salary, grant of entry pay recommended by 6^th CPC to the promotes, reimbursement of actual medical expenditure incurred by the employees in a recognised hospital etc.

It was informed that based on the discussion, each item will be examined further and decision will be taken.

AUTONOMOUS BODIES – EXTENSION OF 7^TH CPC REVISED PAY STRUCTURE AND PENSIONARY BENEFITS

The issue was raised in the JCM Standing Committee meeting held on 25.10.2016 by the staff side. The official side informed that an overall review regarding the performance and financial viability etc. of each Autonomous body is being carried out by the Government. Only after completing the process decision regarding extension of 7^th CPC revised pay structure and pensionary benefits, Bonus etc. will be taken. Extension of the benefits depends upon the policy decision of the Government. Hence the official side has not told any time frame for final decision. It is likely to be delayed.

Confederation has already included the demands of the employees of the autonomous bodies in its 20 point charter of demands. All Unions/Associations/Federation and employees of all autonomous bodies are requested to understand the gravity of the situation and make the 7^th November 2016 mass dharna programme and 15^th December 2016 Parliament March a grand success.

There is no short-cut to get our justified demand accepted by the Government.

This issue was discussed in the JCM Standing Committee meeting as a notified agenda. The official side informed that the file is still under process in the Finance Ministry and a decision is yet to be taken. Once the approval of the Finance Ministry is given the proposal is to be submitted to Cabinet for approval.

All affiliates and C-O-Cs are once again requested to extend full support and solidarity to the proposed Postal Strike on 9^th & 10^th November 2016, demanding bonus calculation ceiling limit enhancement to 7000/- for GDS and immediate payment of revised wages to casual labourers from 01.01.2006.

Why the DA from July 2016 is not announced yet ?

All the Central Government Employees wonder why there is so much delay in announcing the DA from July 2016, the first instalment of Dearness Allowance in 7th CPC.

The silence of the Federations in the Dearness Allowance issue is not understandable. The way the present Government deal with the issues related to central government Employees is unacceptable. But it seems that the Staff Associations lost its vigour to fight with the Government to settle the genuine issues pertaining to Central Government Employees.

Already the fate of the Allowances is not known. To Everyone’s Surprise, the Government is not ready to say anything about Dearness Allowance, as there is none to ask them about why the DA has not been announced. If the Federation know the reason for the delay of announcing the DA from July 2016, they bound to tell the CG Staffs the reason behind the inordinate delay.

Whether it is 3% or 2% whatever it may be , but Dearness Allowance announcement should be made in time. The morale of the employee should not be let down. Because low morale can lead to poor cooperation, low productivity.

Precautions to be taken by the users of DOP Finacle in various scenarios

• In Finacle as we all know that while logging to the Finacle application there is no bio-metric detection of that user hence there might be chances of misuse of the user ids hence we have to strictly follow the below precautions.
• Always send the user id change requests i.e., role change/sol change/delete requests to the respective CPC from the concerned Divisional SPOC only.
• Also send all the user requests to respective CPC preferably before 24 hrs in order to overcome the delay in processing the user requests.
• All the user requests received from all the CPC's will be processed by CEPT User id team in Chennai hence kindly send the requests 24 hrs before.
• I have generally identified the various scenarios in which users of Finacle application should be  extra careful and the detailed description is mentioned below.

• Before sending any user requests in DOP Finacle always check whether inventory cleared or not from that user. Check using HIIA menu if any inventory exists transfer to respective employee of that office or DL-DL.
• If there is any pending inventory then the request will be rejected by CEPT team.

Scenario 1 :- When the Finacle user is going on leave for a certain period what precaution should be taken by that user?

Answer :- When the user is going on leave then immediately send the request to the respective CPC from the Divisional SPOC to make the user temporarily disable so that no one can use your user id in the leave period.

Scenario 2 :- When the Finacle user got retired/suspended/resigned cases what action should be taken by the supervisor of that office?

Answer :- For all the above mentioned cases the supervisor/postmaster/system admin should send the delete request to those user ids who got retired/suspended/resigned from DOP immediately from Divisional SPOC to the respective CPC.  

Scenario 3 :- When the user ordered for deputation to other office what action to be taken by that user ?

Answer :-  When the user ordered for deputation to other office we have to send the SOL change request from Divisional SPOC to the respective CPC preferable prior to 24 hrs. If the user ordered to work in 'C' class office then request for multiple roles after deleting the existing users from that SOL.

Note :-  In 'C' class office there should be only user if there are more than one user immediately send those user ids for delete or sol change request from Divisional SPOC to the respective CPC.
