Regarding cadre restructuring proposal of JA/SA cadre presently existing in P.A.Os

BPAOEA/PA wing / Cadre /restructure /JA/2014/1                                           Dated: 7-1-2014

To

             The DDG (PAF)

            Department of Post

            Dak Bhawan, New Delhi-1

Sub: Regarding cadre restructuring proposal of JA/SA cadre presently existing in P.A.Os

Ref: Minutes of meeting dated 1-8-2013 & Charter of Demands of BPEF .

Respected Sir,

            Kindly recall discussion and have reference of   decisions taken in the formal meeting with BPAOEA over the issue mentioned in the subject.

            On behalf of the Association I am directed to put forwarded following proposals for consideration of Department for enhancement of working efficiency in PAOs and provide a better way   career advancement of employees.

            It is also pertinent to mention here that intentions of cadre review as mentioned in DOP&T guide the No. 35034/9/2010/Estt. (D) Dated 10-2-2011 (Copy attached).

 “Cadre structure needs to be reviewed periodically to harmonize the functional needs of the organization and career progression of employees.”

Accordingly we propose following views for consideration for restructuring of JA/SA cadre.

(1)  On account of Department of Post switching over to accrual based Accounting system from cash based Accounting system; it certainly needs better management of Account perspectives handled by efficient and knowledgeable employees.

(2)  Historically on 05-05-1979, JA’s of PAO were granted special pay of Rs. 35% to the tune of 10% of post to attend work of more complex important nature. Due to some sort of problem in implementing above provision, NFSG in pay scale of 425-700 was granted to these senior Accountants.

In 4^th CPC the NFSG has been withdrawn and the entire cadre of Junior Accountant has been bifurcated into 80:20 from 1-4-87 calling 80% of JA’s as SA and 20% of JA’s retaining their name. The SA post was functional post for JA’s in the pay scale of 1400-2600 with functional contents higher than that of its feeder JA’s placed in revised scale of pay of 1200-2040.

(3)  It is a fact to considered that if 80% of JA’s now SA’s has higher functional contents, then it can be said that practically entire combined cadre (JA&SA) has higher contents of functional needs.

The evidence is contained in the fact that Department could not differentiate the work between JAs & SAs till date.

4.    In the present context, it is to highlight that Department has already sent a proposal to the Nodal Ministry for enhancing the Grade Pay of SAs to 4600 at par with that of Assistants of CSS.

On the basis of above & since there is no functional difference formed yet between JAs & SAs and we have already proposed Grade of 4600 to SAs, the association proposes that

“20% JAs & 80% JAs now SAs may be made equivalent and placed in Grade Pay of 4600 with name Higher Grade Accountant. The mode of recruitment, required educational qualification & the sanctioned strength as per increasing workload due to various business activities in Department be determined accordingly.”

      Thanking you,

                                                                            Yours Faithfully,

                                                                                                              Sd/-

            Hon’ble Secretary (P)

           Department of Posts

            Dak Bhawan, New Delhi-110 001

Sub: Regarding need of urgent clarifications over Department letter No. 1-

         20/2008-PCC dated 4-11-2013.

Respected Sir,

     It is a well established fact that TBOP/BCR pay scales were  only a financial Up-gradation scales. Therefore, on replacement of pay scales with grade pay on 1-1-06, there was need to define Grade pay for grant of TBOP/BCR after 1-1-06 to 29-08-2008 for every cadre of Postal & RMS wing.

    Relying on these reasons, the Department has issued an order in consultation with Finance Ministry as below:-

(a)  In respect of erstwhile Gr. ‘D’ now MTS , the TBOP/BCR grade pay was made as Rs. 1900 & 2000 respectively vide letter dated 6-9-2010 & 18-07-11 .

(b)  In respect of Postman the TBOP/BCR grade pay was made as Rs. 2400 & 2800 respectively vide letter dated 15-01-2009.

 

        Later on, unfortunately, in consultation with Internal Finance Wing of Deptt. , the PCC (Cell) has issued an order dated 4-11-2013 over looking various ground realities of pay structure thus following objectionable provisions are in force.

(1)  The exhaustive orders dated 6-9-2010 & 18-07-2011 for TBOP/BCR of Gr. ‘D’ cadre & order dated 15-01-2009 for TBOP/BCR of Postman cadre was superseded without having exhaustive explanations replacing the provisions.

(2)  The treatment of merged scales of promotional and feeder cadre and implementation of para ( 5) & para ( 6.2) of Annexure –I of MACPS order  are completely  different for erstwhile Gr. ‘D’ now MTS and Postman cadre.

Despite this fact both cadres are compelled to be dealt with only para 2 (a) of 4-11-2013 having incomplete explanations. The example given there  covers only one of the conditions of Gr. ‘D’ and not Postman.

(3)  It is not differentiated completely to which cadres para 2 (a) and para 2 (b) will be  applicable.

(4)  Instead of issuing clarifications replacing various provisions of letter dated 6-9-10, 18-7-11 and 15-1-09 , the department is calling recovery particulars from entire Country thus showing its intention  that it is more interested in creating anomalies than to simplify  the matter after 6 years of 6^th CPC .

(5)  Under which provision cases of retired died on or after 1-1-2006 but before 1-9-2008 and conferred TBOP/BCR should not be reopened. Earlier on no such provision has been made in letter dated 6-9-2010, 18-07-11 & 15-01-2009 has been made and huge amount of recoveries were made from pension of Gr. D and Postman employees.

        In view of above we demand clarifications to be issued on following grounds to avoid confusion in units.  

1.    What will be the G.P. as on 1-1-2006 to erstwhile Gr. ‘D’ now MTS earned TBOP up-gradation prior to 1-1-2006.. What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008.  

2.    What will be the G.P. 1-1-2006 to erstwhile Gr. ‘D’ now MTS earned TBOP and BCR up-gradations both prior to 1-1-2006.. What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008.    

3.    What will be the G.P.  of MTS earning  TBOP after 1-1-2006.  What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008.    

4.    What will be the G.P.  of MTS earning  TBOP prior  to  1-1-2006 and BCR before 1-9-08  .  What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008.     

5.     What will be the G.P. as on 1-1-2006 to Postman earned TBOP up-gradation prior to 1-1-2006.. What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008. 

6.     What will be the G.P. 1-1-2006 to Postman earned TBOP and BCR up-gradations both prior to 1-1-2006.. What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008.  

7.    What will be the G.P.  of Postman earning  TBOP after 1-1-2006.  What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008?    

8.    What will be the G.P.  of Postman earning  TBOP prior  to  1-1-2006 and BCR before 1-9-08  .  What will be his MACP entitlement after 1-9-2008.    

            It is pertinent to mention here that Federation always tries to  bring about the facts that covers the interest of entire employees community and it is the  duty of the Department to realize the gravity of the resentment that may grow if  incomplete orders like letter dated 4-11-2013 without clarification may produce huge amount of recovery from the lower category employees of the Department of their no fault.

            It is, therefore, requested that at least above mentioned eight clarifications are issued urgently to sort out coming problem mention above.

            Thanking you,   

                                                                                                            Yours sincerely,

Dear brother,

            I am sure that this Circular will find all of you and your family with best of health and happiness. The Federal Executive meeting of the Federation was held on 16^th & 17^th of December, 2013 in the T-21, Atul Grove Road, New Delhi in presence of Shri B.K.

Conveners were deputed in each Circle as per list enclosed. In view to increase union activities as well as membership, all General Secretaries will tour each & every office of Circles. In February 2014 Rajasthan, Punjab and in March 2014 Bihar Circle were chosen for the purpose. Each Divisional Secretary may be warned to remit the quota as per percentage without fail otherwise stern action will be taken. They should necessarily submit the list of membership submitted in April, and list of membership subscription deducted from salary of July, 2014.

All India Conferences of BRMS-III & IV will be held 8^th & 9^th February, 2014 at New Delhi. In respect of BPEU Class-III conference, hectic activity is going on to convenient  before 20^th February i.e. before National conference of BMS at Jaipur. All BPEF Executive members are invited in the Conference provided they deposit the delegate fees of Rs. 300/- at state BMS office.

            Dharna Programme on 17^th December, 2013 at Dak Bhawan was postponed on written assurance by Department of Posts. It has come to our notice Department is collecting the written comments over the items of Charter of Demands from the different wings of Department.

            As an outcome, a clarification over deduction of membership subscription and handing it over to elected Divisional Secretary of unrecognized union of BPEF on the basis of Deptt. Letter 14-2-2007 has been issued on 26-12-2013. Similarly Postal Accounts wing has demanded a proposal for merging 80:20 schemes in Junior Accounts cadre. The Secretary has assured and informal meeting in the month of February 2014.  

            There is bad news for Postman cadre.  Through RTI information it has been supplied by Department  that revised  Grade Pay  of 2400 for  TBOP and 2800 for  BCR vide letter dated 15-01-2009 has been withdrawn  vide letter 4-11-2013. Thus old TBOP/BCR replacement grade pay 2000 & 2400 will be provided. Thus 3^rd MACP will be reduced to Rs. 2800 from 4200. These revised orders of 4-11-2013 will cause huge recovery from pay of Senior Postman’s. A strong protest to Secretary (P) will be lodge on 6^th January, 2014 and the outcome will be communicated. You are advised to be in touch with Federation office regularly in this matter. All Circle Secretaries / Divisional Secretaries are advised of issue Hand bills each month to members informing various activities BPEF and Unions.
