Proposal for Cadre Review in respect of Group B (Non Gazetted) & Group ‘C’ Cadre in operative side of Postal Department
1. JUSTIFICATION FOR CADRE REVIEW
1.1
In the first Chapter of the Annual report 2007-08 of the Department of
Post under the Caption of 'Overview', it was mentioned that the Cadre
Review was conducted in 2007 with the prime aim of restructuring the
Cadre to meet the challenges to the Department, and especially to cater
the marketing and business development.
1.2
Whereas the similar to the cadre review exercised at JAG/SAG level has
not been extended to the grass root level employees who are actually
carrying out the policy and programme of the Postal organisation despite
there is ample justification after the modernisation of postal services
and introduction of various new projects and products. Not even a
single post of System Administrators for maintenance of hardware and
software has so far been created despite the posts of Systems Manager/
Systems Administrators/ Project officers etc. are in existence by
converting the Postal Assistant posts by keeping those posts vacant.
Many Postal Assistant posts were now christened as Marketing Executives
without any monetary benefits and also keeping the Postal Assistants
posts vacant which are being managed by the rest of the staff without
any monetary compensation.
1.3
As per the report cited above in para supra, there is a dire need to
transform the human resources abundantly available in the Department to a
multi dimensional one to meet the challenges and also to improve the
services in the competition era for which the officials should be
motivated by offering good packages and promotional opportunities.
1.4 The
Cadre restructuring exercises have been done by the various departments
in large scale. In many departments like Railways, Audit &
Accounts, the cadre restructurings were exercised in Group C cadres many
times and the ratio of promotional avenues between the feeder and
promotional cadres are being maintained under the ratio of 20:80.
1.5 The
Staff of the Postal Accounts in our department have also been blessed
with this beneficial scheme of eighty percent upgradation of posts
during Sep 87 based on the cadre restructuring to Postal Accounts staff
exercised after the implementation of the Fourth Pay Commission's
recommendations.
1.6 So
far, in respect of Postal department, the Postal Board has not
exercised any cadre restructuring to the Clerical (Group C) cadres but
has resorted to other schemes like TBOP, BCR on matching Savings. The
conception of TBOP/BCR was to ensure that an employee does not stagnate
in the maximum of the pay scale of the Cadre and promote to next grade
(Selection grade) in two spells (i.e) one first after 16 years and
second after 26years of service. The agreement for TBOP and BCR were
signed by providing matching savings for the schemes to the extent of
20% in supervisory and 6% in operative Posts and withdrawal of special
pay and so on.
1.7 Prior
to introduction of TBOP, in May 1974, by an agreement in the JCM
Departmental Council, 20% of the posts in the operative grade were
placed in the next higher grade of LSG. This was withdrawn at the time
of introduction of TBOP, as the LSG promotions were granted on the
length of service of individuals and not by the existence of posts under
the TBOP scheme.
1.8 The
Department has issued various clarifications on TBOP/BCR and in almost
all the clarifications the TBOP and BCR promotions were equated with LSG
& HSG II. HSG I promotions were accorded during the years in
between 1995 to 1998 based on the BCR Gradation list. Suddenly in 1999,
the TBOP & BCRs were termed as financial upgradations and they were
denied the equal status with LSG & HSG II. Thus the benefits arrived
after the TBOP/BCR in the years 1983/1991 were freezed and those
promotions were lost its identity and sanctity. Finally while adopting
MACP Promotions the erstwhile TBOP & BCR Schemes were scrapped and
now not in existence. Thus all the three exercises similar to cadre
review in different forms were withdrawn and virtually, it appears that
there is no cadre review for Group C cadre has been exercised so far.
1.9 The
Sixth Pay Commission did not recommend any separate pay scales for LSG
& HSG II and resultantly the Pay Bands applicable to TBOP & BCR
are thus being applied to LSG & HSG II promotions. After equating
the TBOP & BCR with the similar Pay Band to LSG & HSG II, the
contention of the Department that they are financial upgradation is
having no relevance. Thus there is ample justification for exercising
cadre restructuring for the supervisory cadres in the department.
1.10 Meanwhile,
the Sixth CPC in its recommendations under para 3.3.17 maintained that
it has refrained from conducting cadre review of individual services and
left the job to the respective departments. Thus we propose the
following proposal for cadre review for consideration.
1.11 Since
we are aware that despite ample functional justification for
upgradation of grade pay to the extent of Rs.2800/- to Postal
Assistants, there is no chance of considering to grant higher pay scale
to Postal Assistants under the proposed cadre restructuring, we are
restraining ourselves only to the increase the number of supervisory
posts in existence in respect of hierarchical cadre to the Postal
assistants and formation of new cadres pertaining to technical posts.
1.12 It
is pertinent to mention that in many departments, the percentage wise
cadre restructuring of posts were considered and the functional
justification has not been insisted. For example, Railways in the case
of Ticket Checking staff who are in 1900 GP Entry level pay, have been
provided with the promotional cadre like Senior Ticket Examiner; Head
Ticket Examiner; and Chief Ticket Inspector. In the case of Railway
Commercial clerks, who are in 2000 GP at Entry level pay, have
promotional cadres like Senior commercial Clerks; Head Commercial
Clerks; and Chief Commercial Clerks under the cadre restructuring doing
the similar duty with different nomenclatures.
1.13 Under
the Cadre Restructuring exercised in Railways 14% of officials are
retained in Entry level pay scale of both these cadres; 16% officials in
next pay scale level of 2400 GP; 46% to next level of 4200 GP; and
remaining 24% in 4600 GP in the case of Ticket Checking Staff. Out of
these staff most of them work as operative staff and the senior most
staff only are working as Supervisors in second and third level and only
the fourth level are fully real supervisory staff. According to Railway
formula these higher cadre restructured posts were not based on
functional justification. It is the bare fact that on functional
justification basis many could not have obtained this much percentage of
higher level posts.
1.14 Even
though, we are of the opinion that the cadre restructuring shall be
exercised at par with railways or at least with the earlier review made
for staff car drivers based on the percentage of posts in basic cadre to
each promotional categories, we are placing below the availability of
functional justification also in case of PA cadre for kind information
and consideration..
2. LSG, HSG II/HSG I
2.1
At the outset, we wish to place on record that the existing
nomenclature for supervisory posts viz. LSG, HSG-II & HSG-I does not
exhibit the nature of status to our world and it requires revision. Let
it be called with the nomenclature of Supervisors, Senior Supervisors
and Chief Supervisors or Executive Manager, Senior Manager, and Chief
Manager. It is most opt to mention that the earlier station masters are
now called as station managers; Engine drivers are now called as Loco
Pilot; Group D is now called as Multi Tasked Staff;
Mechanics sheds are called as care centres. Similarly, the Postal
Assistant shall also be called with decent nomenclature instead of this
present LSG, HSG II & HSG I
2.2
The Supervisors/Postmasters have omnibus task of management, providing
guidance and supervision in all activities including the various
marketing/business activities.
2.3 The scope and functions of Postmasters/Supervisors may broadly be categorised as follows.
(i) They are responsible for drawal/remittance of funds involving huge financial responsibility.
(ii) They have to enforce efficient supervision office and Postal operations.
(iii) They have to enforce the orders strictly in maintaining the office and its day to day functions.
(iv) They have to plan and execute the orders and promote more business and improve the mail functioning.
(v) They have to supervise the subordinates as on administrator and in some cases act as disciplinary authority also.
(vi) They
should possess a through knowledge on all Postal transactions with
updated rulings in order to run the office smoothly with the customer
satisfaction.
(vii) They have to take all efforts for prompt delivery of mails besides averting any public complaints.
(viii) They
have a thorough knowledge about their powers, responsibilities, and
duties and also to acquaint him with all departmental rules and
procedures
Under
the changed scenario, due to complete modernisation and venturing
various business activities, the role and responsibilities of the
supervisors and postmasters become abundant and there is a dire need to
place them in higher pay band of II right from LSG post onwards.
2.4
In nutshell, they should function as a Manager, Public Relation
Officer, Bank Officer, Welfare Officer and also a good Administrator.
Based on the job content, the responsibilities and specialised knowledge
needed for efficient functioning; there is a sound case for upgradation
of all the posts of Postmasters into supervisory cadre. After the
decentralisation of various works at S. O. levels like RD/MIS works and
launching various business activities there is a qualitative change in
the supervisory duties of the Single/Double handed offices which require
a better senior officials to supervise the work. Notwithstanding our
claim to place the LSG in pay band II with grade pay of Rs.4200; HSG II
to Rs.4600 & HSG I to Rs.4800, We are proposing the following for
increase the number of supervisory posts which will cater the need and
also based on the functional justification.
2.5
The Department is having a total number of Postal Assistants to the
extent of 83,696 Posts. We are having 6989 LSG Posts, 1703 HSG II &
1649 HSG I Posts; out of which 2097 post of Postmaster Grade I, 511
posts of Grade II Postmaster & 495 posts of Grade I Postmaster were
carved out while forming a separate cadre of Postmaster. While comparing
the existence of basic cadre Postal Assistants, the present number of
LSG Posts is just only 8.35%. Even the assured 20% operative posts in
LSG during May 74 and implemented is no where in letter & spirit and
we have gone back to the period prior to 1974.
2.6 The staff side therefore requests to consider the following proposals in the case of supervisors.
(i) Considering
the more nature of supervisory works now available in B & C Class
offices, the posts of SPMs of those offices may be upgraded to the
present status of LSG with the revised nomenclature of 'Supervisor' or
Manager. As on date we are having 11395 singled handed post offices and
6719 double handed offices. It will result in creation of new
supervisory posts equivalent to present LSG cadre to be extent of 18114
which will work out to 21.65% LSG Supervisory posts.
(ii) The
SPMs working in present 'A' class and LSG offices & other LSG
supervisory posts may be upgraded to the present status of HSG II and
called them as 'Senior Supervisor or Senior Manager'. This will add to
the present LSG strength of 6989 with addition of 3732 postmaster of
Triple handed post offices with the total strength of 10718 which will
maintain the promotional avenues from LSG to HSG II to the extent ratio
of 2 : 1.
(iii) The
present posts in HSG II & HSG I may be amalgamated and called as
'Chief Supervisor or Chief Manager' with the present HSG I status. The
existing posts of HSG II & HSG I to the extent of 1703 and 1649
posts respectively (i.e.) 3352 posts will maintain the ratio of
promotions from HSG II to HSG I as 3:1
(iv) A
separate identification to the extent of 30% of the HSG I posts may
please be accorded as Non functional posts in Group B status with grade
pay of Rs. 4800/- in Pay Band II.
2.7 If
the above process of elevation of more supervisory posts considering
the requirement of more supervisory posts on functional justification is
carried out, it will provide more supervisory posts and not to have any
disturbances in the pyramidal structure since the total no. of
supervisory posts will work out to 32184 which is 38.45% not exceeding
40% of the basic cadre.
3. POSTMASTER’S CADRE
3.1
The Department has unilaterally introduced Postmaster’s Cadre vide its
No. 4-17/2008-SPB II dt. 22.11.2010 by carving out 2097 LSG posts, 511
HSG II posts and 495 HSG I posts out of 5695 LSG posts, 1077 HSG II
& 1176 HSG I posts. The staff side was not in favour for formation
of separate cadre since it will create a division among the existing
supervisors and also the concept of supervisors to know all the nature
of work is being shrinking due to separate formation. However, the
Postmaster cadre is being implemented as a separate hierarchical cadre.
3.2
The recruitment rules applicable to other supervisors are being applied
in respect of Postmasters cadre. During cadre restructuring the
following shall be considered.
i) When
the Postmaster cadre is separately created, all the promotions up to
the posts of Chief Postmaster shall be open only to that cadre.
Entertaining IPO line officials is not fair. Their option may be
obtained for postmaster cadre if willing. Thereafter all posts shall be
filled up only from the Postmasters cadre.
ii) At the time of upgradation of more supervisory posts under cadre review, 1/3rd posts may also be carved out for the postmasters cadre.
iii) At present there is no provision to fill up the Postmaster Grade I posts on seniority. The principle of 2/3rd by Seniority and 1/3rdby merit shall be introduced in Postmasters Grade-I also.
4. RMS
4.1
At present, there are 7599 Sorting Assistants; 5544 MACP II SAs &
3311 MACP III. Whereas the present supervisory posts available in the
RMS in LSG 1053; HSG II 415; HSG-I 415, which is not even reaches 5% in
LSG to the comparison of Sorting Assistant
4.2
After implementation of mail network redesign in speed post as well as
First class mailing offices and there are vast changes being taken
place, more promotional avenues shall be provided in RMS. Considering
the above, more Promotional Posts in LSG, HSG-II & HSG-I equal to
the ratio provided to Postal Assistant under the cadre review may please
be considered, the existing promotional Posts shall be increased at
least by three times.
4.3
Further a new cadre of Non Functional Group ‘B’ may please be carved
out to the extend of 30% of the total HSG I Posts by providing one NFS
Posts to each RMS division for effective supervision and monitoring.
5. SYSTEMS ADMINISTRATORS
5.1 The Sixth Pay Commission in its report vide item No. 7.6.21 observed interalia: -
"Postal
Assistants assigned the jobs of Systems Administrators and Marketing
Executives have demanded creation of a new cadre with higher pay scales.
Creation of a new cadre in their case is not functionally justified.
The commission, in any case, is not looking into demands relating to
individual cadre reviews, status -quo may, therefore, need to be
maintained especially because the existing scenario always usage of
available manpower for need based multifarious function."
5.2
The Sixth CPC did not dealt the issue with due note of the existence of
such category in postal exclusively performing the duties properly and
arrived at the conclusion causing severe discontentment in the minds of
the officials who are toiling since inception of computers in the post
offices and rendered their unstinted service without any extra
remuneration for the total computerisation of postal services.
5.3 From
the report of the Sixth CPC, it is quite evident that the actual nature
of work involved as 'Systems Administrators' in the Department of Posts
has been quite misunderstood and the projection of the same has been
made devoid of the acumen and dexterity actually involved. In nut shell,
the work of 'Systems Administrators' has been evaluated on facts that
are miles away from the ground realities. In other departments, the
nature of work entrusted to Systems administrators are quite different
and they are being with the grade pay of Rs.5400. Here we are calling
them as systems administrators; but their role and responsibilities are
entirely different.
5.4 In
certain departments, the posts of ‘Computer Assistant’ or ‘System
Assistant’ in the pay scale of Rs. 9300-34800 with grade pay of Rs.
4200/- have been created with the Qualification of graduation/BSC with
PGDCA/DOEACC – A
level with 55/- marks or two years’ experience is required for the
selection as system assistant. The nature of work in existence in postal
can be equated with that of systems assistants. Based on the same
structure, a separate cadre of system Administrators can be created by
providing further promotional avenues in the cadre.
5.5 The
Department has formed a separate Technical wing at the Directorate to
deal the problems of Systems oriented and it has given a hope that the
long pending demands of the System Administrators would also be
considered and decided. The Department has also constituted another
three DDG Committee vide is letter No.1/1/2010-Sr dated 19.7.2010
comprising DDG (Estt), DDG (P) and DDG (Technology) to consider about
creation of systems administrators cadre and directed to submit its
report within three months. We are not aware of the recommendations of
the committee.
5.6 Further,
the Department of Posts vide its letter No. 23-15/2004-PE II dt
24.12.04, after the formation of Separate Committee under the
Chairmanship of the DDG (Technology) directed to consider the following:
-
(a) Assess
which of special categories of Staff will be required at Sub Post
offices, Head Post offices, Sorting offices, Speed Post centres as and
various Administrative and Accounts offices to effectively tackle
problems which arise while implementing the Computerization plan:
(b) Assess
number of Staff in each of these special categories that will be
required in SOs/HOs/Divisions etc and nomenclature (for example, PAC
Technology). System administrator, Systems Manager etc.) for each
category.
(c) Recommend:
(i) Pay scales to be given to such staff
(ii) Selection criterion for such staff and career
(iii) Career progression for such staff.
5.7 The
Director (T&E) has sought views and suggestions on the above vide
his letter cited above. However, it seems no decision has so far been
taken by the committee or Department.
5.8 According to Para 10.1 of the Annual report of 2010-11 of the Department of Posts, during the period from 1st April 2010 to 31st December
2010 , computer hardware and peripherals have been supplied to 1811
post offices. Thus till December 2010, 14415 post offices have been
computerised under Plan Scheme of Computerisation of Post offices.
Further all Postal Circle Offices, Regional Offices, all Postal Accounts
Offices and 1205 Divisional Offices have also been computerized.
Besides, a number of enabled services were started in these post
offices. The Govt has approved IT modernisation project of the
Department of Posts for computerisation of all the non-computerised post
offices, mail offices, administrative and other offices, establishment
of required IT infrastructure, development of required software
applications to be completed by 2012-13. .
5.9 The
Department has entered with contracts for implementation of financial
services solution and there are eight projects for the I.T.
modernisation of India Post at on overall out lay of Rs.1877 crores. As
per the contract for financial services solution, it includes
commissioning of Postal Banking operations entailing core banking
solution and ATM switch. The dept proposes to introduce and install
Rural ICT hardware devices and providing network connectivity to 1.30
lakhs branch post offices enabling all post offices to perform e
transactions.
5.10 It
is very pertinent to point out that this could be achieved only by
having specialised and trained man power pool inside our organisation.
Imparting training, maintenance of hardware and software, attending
faults at 1.30 lakhs branch post offices etc, we require a large number
of expert personnel for which the creation of systems assistant or call
by any name like Technical Assistant, Computer Assistant etc is
inevitable. The role of existing Systems Administrators in total
computerisation of Post offices must be recognised. They are very much
frustrated and the discontentment is mounting due to the continuous
exploitation of these categories over ten years.
5.11 It
is therefore requested to consider their plights and convert the
existing Systems Administrator posts as Promotional Cadre to Postal
Assistants possessing required qualification in computer appreciations
as if available in other departments for the post of Systems Assistant
with grade pay of Rs.4200.
5.12 The
existing Systems Administrators may be absorbed in the promotional
posts by conducting simple Trade test in token of recognition of their
services in the past in the total computerisation of post offices. It is
pertinent to mention that it is only the postal department, the
computerisation to this extent possible without engaging any outside
agencies and also without incurring more expenses with the technically
qualified Postal Assistants available in the department. They must be
recognised by this way.
5.13 The pay scale of the Systems Assistants may be decided as follows.
Systems Assistants - Grade Pay 4200
I Promotion: Systems Manager - Grade Pay 4600
II Promotion: Sr. System Manager - Grade Pay 4800
10%
posts may be identified as Gazetted with Grade pay of Rs.5400/- as
existence in other departments as Systems Administrators for monitoring
the entire Technical developments.
5.14
Even though all the supervisory posts in Postal operative side can look
after the postmasters work and there is no need for creation of
separate cadre, the Dept has created the Postmasters cadre recently
which the staff side not resisted. Whereas in the case of Systems
assistants, there is ample justification for creation of separate cadre
considering the nature of their duties and requirement to the service
and this may be considered in true spirit.
Notwithstanding
our demand for the creation of System Asst. With Rs. 4200/- Grade Pay,
it is agreeable to convert the Posts by LSG and other hierarchical
promotions based on the functional requirements and declare it as a
promotional cadre to Postal Assistants.
6. PO & RMS ACCOUNTANTS
6.1 The
Sixth Pay Commission has rejected higher pay scale to PO & RMS
Accountants as if there is no functional justification exists for the
same and recommended to revise the special allowance of Rs.180/- in
double the rates. The description of the Sixth CPC that they are not
belonging to the organised accounts cadre without looking the merits
through their nature of duties and responsibilities are nothing but a
farce. This cadre has met a raw deal over the last three decades.
6.2 The
comparative pay structure of Accountant post in different Department /
Ministry / organized Sector are detailed below for kind perusal.
Name of the Department Designation / Existing pay scale after 5th CPC/ Revised pay scale
Indian Audit & Accounts (a)Auditor/Accountant 4500-125-7000
Department/ subsequently revised to 5000-150-8000
(b) Sr Auditor/ Accountant 5500-175-900
(Para 7.56.4 6th CPC) (c) Section Officer 6500-200-10500
Railway Department (a) Accountants Assistants 5000-150-8000
(Para 7.56.6 6th CPC) (b) Divisional Accountant 5500-175-9000
Ministry of Consumer Affairs (a) Accountant cum cashier 5000-150-8000
Food & Public Dn (b) on promotion 5500-175-9000
(Para 7.1.14 6th CPC) (c) -DO- 6500-200-10500
The Survey of India Land & (a) Accountant 5000-150-8000
Development Office (b) On Promotion 5500-175-9000
(Para 7.46.41 6th CPC) (c) -DO- 6500-200-10500
Indian Tourism Office (a) Accountant 4500-125-7000
(Para 7.44.7 6th CPC)
Postal A/Cs & Finance (a) Auditor / Accountant 5000-150-8000
(Para 7.56 6th CPC) (b) Sr. Auditor/Accountant 5500-175-9000
(c) Section Officer 6500-200-10500
6.3 This
will be the testimony that this cadre of PO & RMS Accountant alone
is deprived and denied the dues. The exploitation of this cadre is
continuing over 20 years. This may please be pursued with the Government
and see that the PO & RMS Accountants are placed at least with the
Accountants working in Postal Accounts office of our department.
6.4 The following is the proposal, we desired to put forth for kind consideration
i. The Po & RMS Accountant examination may be declared as vacancy based examination instead of the present qualified one
ii. The official after their selection shall be posted as Accountant with the Grade Pay of Rs.2800.
iii. PO & RMS Accountants cadre shall be declared as a separate cadre with hierarchical promotional benefits.
iv.
At the time of upgradation of 1622 HSG II posts to HSG I, many APM
accounts LSG posts were identified as HSG I posts. Resultantly there is
very lesser number of LSG Posts ie. in the feeder cadre available for
promotion to PO & RMS Accountants. This has blocked the promotional
chances for the existing PO &RMS Accountants .In many places, the
due DPC for LSG posts could not held due to dearth of LSG vacancies.
Hence, it is the dire need to restore the LSG position to the extent of
50% of the total posts of APM Accounts by upgrading simultaneously in
the general line posts. Those posts can be identified to the present
status of HSG II with Grade pay of Rs.4200.
v. 30% of the remaining APM Accounts post may be declared with present HSG I status with grade pay of Rs.4600.
vi. The remaining 20% of the APM Accounts posts may be declared as Gazetted posts with grade
pay of Rs.4800.
The
determination of status on LSG, HSG II, HSGI and Gazetted may be
decided based on the status of the offices and also the supervisory
nature of the posts. This is possible. The nomenclature of the posts may
also be changed at par with the proposals we suggested for the
supervisory posts. Unless the cadre is declared as a separate one, the
anomalies in existence over three decades will continue. It is therefore
requested to consider the proposals by analysing all these factors
prevailing in the work spot.
7. MISCELLANEOUS
7.1
In order to provide more promotional avenues to the youth possessing
more skills & qualifications, the following establishments may be
upgraded and elevated to the standards of supervisors.
(i) The
Marketing Executives may also be declared as promotional supervisory
posts as is done in the case of Town Inspectors in to LSG.
8. CIRCLE OFFICE STAFF
8.1 The
present staff strength in circle offices available in Group ‘C’ is
around 2500 and the existing promotional avenues is less than 8% in
total and after conversion of LDC & UDC as single cadre of Postal
Assistant, there is a total imbalance in respect of Circle office in
respect of promotional posts.
8.2 It
is therefore suggested that in promotional cadres like LSG, HSG II
& HSG I may be created as in the same ratio of Postal Assistant and
30% as the HSG-I posts may be upgraded as NFS. The existing four posts
of Group ‘B’ may please be merged with the other Group ‘B’ posts in
officer’s line.
9. SBCO Staff
9-1
Total staff is 4100. There is no HSG II at present. It is suggested to
provide four layers of promotions with the ratio of 50:20:20; 5:5. The
SBCO in charge of All Gazetted HPOs (116) may be converted to HSG I.
There are 442 divisions and all the in charge of such divisional head
quarters may be considered for HSG II. It is further suggested that the
in charge of SBCO having up to 50,000 entries may be converted to LSG,
above 50,000 up to 100000 may be HSG II and above 1 lakh, it will be
HSG-I, Similarly all working in (PWCs/ICOs shall be placed in
promotional posts. The ration in promotional prospects as decided in
case of Postal Assistant may please be rotational in case of PA SBCO
also.
10. MATCHING SAVINGS
10.1
The question of matching savings does not arise since in most of the
cadre, as there is no elevation in the pay scale, the officials who
have already acquired the pay pertaining to the post shall alone get
regular promotion.
10.2
The matching savings, we offered for TBOP/BCR have not been
practically restored despite the Directorate orders 25-5/2010-PE I dt.
19.7.2010 since there is no chance of any new creation. As per the norms
and after withdrawing the reduction of staff under TBOP/BCR Schemes
w.e.f 1.9.2008, there is ample justification for creation of more new
posts. As such, further matching savings in the shape of staff cut will
ruin the developmental activities and efficiency of the postal services.
10.3
In token of acceptance of modernisation and various re organisations
in the Postal set up, the officials shall be offered with more
promotional avenues despite it will not cause any monetary benefits.
It
is therefore requested that the proposal for cadre review may please be
considered with due attention and the Group C employees may be granted
with the promotional avenues. Satisfied Employees will perform well and
render more satisfied work.
