CADRE REVIEW
Cadre review is an important aspect of cadre management. It ensures a
healthy balance between the functional requirements of an organisation and
legitimate career aspirations of its officers. The thrust of such an exercise
is on scientific manpower projection and recruitment planning in order to
rationalise the cadre structure as also to enhance efficiency, morale and
effectiveness of the service/cadre. In terms of the extant guidelines, ideal
periodicity of cadre review is once ever y five years .
The status of Group ‘A’ Services is reviewed regularly. After first such
review this year in April, all the concerned Departments were advised by the
Cabinet Secretary to formulate appropriate cadre review proposals. Further,
Para 1(ix) of the Government of India, Department of Expenditure Resolution
No.1/1/2008-IC dated 29 August, 2008, whereby its decisions on the
recommendations of 6th Central Pay Commission have been conveyed enjoins upon
all the Cadre Controlling Authorities to review the services/cadres under the
administrative control within a year. The Cadre Controlling Authorities have
been reminded again October 2008.
There are 58 Central Group ‘A’ Services, out of which 44 services are
due for cadre review this year, i.e., 2008. The cadre review proposals of five
of the remaining forty four Group ‘A’ Services are already under active
consideration. These are Indian

CADRE REVIEW
Defence Service of Engineers and Military Engineering Service (Surveyor
Cadre), Military Engineering Service (Architect Cadre), Indian Inspection
Service and Indian Supply Service The progress is being monitored constantly.
The Cadre Review Division also compiles
and analyses statistical information of all the Central Group ‘A’ Services. The
inconsistencies, if noted during the analysis, are brought to the notice of the
concerned Cadre Controlling Authority. This exercise is undertaken on half
yearly basis in January and July every year. The data as on 1st January, 2008
has already been compiled and analysed. The detailed report in this regard is
also posted on this Department’s website. However, it has been decided that the
next analysis would be done only after completion of cadre review of all the
services envisaged in the Government’s Resolution mentioned above.
Objectives of a Cadre Review
3.3 The main purpose of a cadre
review is to restructure a cadre in such a way as to remove the deficiencies
which might be existing at the time of the constitution of a service or have
crept in subsequently and ensure that the cadre structure satisfies the
functional, structural and personnel considerations. Cadre review provides an
opportunity to overcome various bottlenecks, remove existing distortions and
bring about rationalisation of cadre structure so as to improve the efficiency
and morale of the cadre officers and thereby enhance the effectiveness of the
Service in the fulfilment of the objectives for which it has been established.
3.4 The major part of the cadre
review exercise concerns advance projection of manpower requirements over the
review period and the planning of recruitment for this period. Rationalisation
of the cadre from the functional, structural and personnel angles is the other
major objective of a cadre review. Specifically, the main objectives of cadre
review are to:
i) estimate future manpower
requirements on a scientific basis for a period of 5 years at a time,
ii) Plan recruitment in such a way
as to avoid future promotional blocks and at the same time prevent gaps
building up,
iii) so restructure the cadre as
to harmonise the functional needs with the legitimate career expectations of
its members and thus
iv) to enhance the effectiveness
of the service.
3.5 The methodology of the cadre
review is fully explained in the Detailed Guidelines (1978) appended to this
Monograph (Appendix III). Salient features of the methodology are highlighted in
the following link. Please click the link to see the details:
POINTS TO BE FOLLOWED BY THE
CADRE CONTROLLING AUTHORITIES WHILE FORMULATING PROPOSALS FOR CADRE REVIEW
1.
The
proposal for cadre review may be formulated in accordance with the guidelines
and instructions issued by the Department of Personnel and Training and
Department of Expenditure. If there are
any deviations, full justification therefore may be given.
2.
The
proposal should begin with a brief background of the Service and the
development which have taken place since last cadre review.
3.
It should
contain the requisite data in prescribed proforma.
4.
All
contents may be chapterised suitably.
5.
The
abbreviations used in the proposal may be clubbed alphabetically in a list at
the end of the proposal.
6.
Full
justification may be given individually for each upgradation/creation of posts,
especially those at S.A.G. and higher levels.
7.
While
sending cadre review proposals to Department of Personnel & Training, the
Cadre Controlling Authorities may indicate precisely the functional
requirements of various categories of posts and group them in terms of duties
and responsibilities. This can be done
by conducting a general job evaluation exercise, which would help in ensuring
that different grades in a cadre reflect distinctly different level of
functions and that higher posts do have higher level of duties and
responsibilities.
8.
The
existing level of stagnation vis-Ã -vis that after the proposed cadre review may
be brought out clearly.
9.
Various
kinds of reserves may be shown separately (Training, Deputation, Probation, and
Leave).
10.
The
existing training facilities and proposed augmentation, if any, may be
indicated.
11.
The
existing strength and proposed strength (grade/pay-scale wise) may be given in
a tabular statement.
12.
Different
mode of recruitment/promotion to various grades may be indicated.
13.
All
Instructions of the Government concerning downsizing the Government are duly
taken into account.
14.
Confirmation
to the effect that the proposal will not result in any increase in the overall
strength of the cadre or in introduction of new scales / grades.
15.
Matching
savings may be provided from within the cadre and financial implications of the
proposal (which should be budget neutral) should be amplified.
16.
If the
posts in the lowest grade are proposed to be abolished, its effect, if any, on
the promotion prospects of the incumbents of the feeder posts may be indicated.
17.
While
forwarding the cadre review proposals of Group ‘A’ Services, it may be ensured
that cadre review of feeder posts from Group ‘B’, ‘C’ and ‘D’ be completed
beforehand, so as to reflect the impact of the same on the induction into Group
‘A’ Services, whenever the same is envisaged in the Statutory Rules.
18.
The
position of a pending SIU Report, if any, may be stated. The concerned Ministry/Department should give
a certificate that there is no ongoing SIU study having a bearing on posts
covered in the Cadre Review Proposals and that no recommendations of SIU study
pertaining to the cadre are pending implementation.
19.
The
position regarding applicability or otherwise of NFSG instructions to the
Service may be brought out.
20.
The
status of the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission, if any,
about the Service, may be given.
21.
A copy

In pursuance of the
decision taken in the 2nd meeting of the National Anomaly
Committee held on 27.03.2010, a Joint Committee
to examine the anomalies pertaining to the Modified
Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS) was constituted
vide Department of Personnel & Training (D0PT)'s O.M.
No.11/1/2010- JCA dated 03.05.2010.
The issue of providing an
option to organisations/cadres to have a choice
for the benefits under the earlier ACPS or the MACPS was also discussed
in the meeting of the Joint Committee. While the
issue would require further deliberations, it is
re- iterated that MACPS (as was the case with the ACPS) is a fall back
option in the event of promotions not taking place. Cadre structure needs
to be reviewed periodically to harmonise the functional
needs of the organisation and career progression
of employees. Accordingly, all concerned are advised to review the
cadre structure in a time bound manner with a view to mitigate problem of
stagnation.

by them a common proposal of the Staff side has been submitted to day itself.
Cadre review for Postman & MTS’
the MTS is the common category for
all Central Govt. employees, there is no possibility of bringing them under
cadre review.
As functional Justification could not be identified for the
Postman and also the higher pay granted by the 6th CPC, the official side did not
favour any cadre review. However official side came forward with the proposal
if the Postman cadre opts out from the MACP scheme and agree to take the
percentage wise promotions it will be considered. It requires a deep study and
the Postman unions will discuss the issue and come out with the proposals.
The chairman conveyed that the next meeting will be arranged in short notice to finalise the proposals.
