Subject: Stepping up of pay of the senior with reference to the revised pay of juniors
applicability of Notes 7 & 10 below Rule 7 (1) of CCS (RP) Rules, 2008.
Several references have
been received from some of the Factories as well as Br. AOs seeking
clarification for stepping up of pay to the senior Fireman at par with their
juniors appointed on or after 1.1.2006 in terms of Ministry of Defence I D
No.11(4)/2008/D (Civ-I) dtd 06-05-2011.
The matter was taken up
with the OFB for preparation of common seniority list in
respect of Firemen grade to fulfill one of the conditions stated in the ibid
MOD order.
The OFB after repeated
reminders has intimated that the seniority of the Fireman grade
in OF Organisation is maintained locally at the Factory Level. The Staff Side
has also agreed in the JCM Level-III to continue present system of maintaining seniority of the Fireman grade
at the Factory level as the these employees are not susceptible to transfer
from one Factory to another Factory.
The availability of
element of Direct Recruitment, the other condition stated in the above MOD
order 6.5.2011, has been provided in the SRO-32 of 4.5.2012.
Keeping in the view of
the above, this office is of opinion that the benefit of steeping up may be extended to the senior Firemen in
those factories where a junior Fireman appointed on or after 1.1.2006 is
actually drawing higher pay than his senior provided the senior and the junior
belongs to the same seniority list maintained in the concerned Fy. The benefit will not be
admissible in the grade of Leading Fireman as in that grade the element of
direct recruitment is not available.
P C of A (Fys) has been consulted.
