Congratulations to all:
Joint Committee recommendations on the agenda of
a) CPSU Cadre hierarchy and b) first TBP uniformly after 4 years to remove the
anomaly is signed by all the Committee members. We thank Sri Mohammed Ashraf
Khan, Chairman of the Jt Committee to complete the task in time.
The Joint Committee was reconstituted with new
Chairman after SNEA agitation in April – May, 2015 and our discussions with
CMD, DIR(HR) and ED(Fin) on 06.05.2015. The Committee has given time upto
15.08.2015. The 3rd agenda of first TBP after 4 years also become
part of the Joint Committee agenda as a result of our agitation. Earlier Jt Committee could not do anything in
this regard.
Ultimately our struggle for that last two years,
from February, 2014 onwards demanding finalization of standard pay scales of
E2, E3 replacing E1A and E2A, implementation of CPSU cadre hierarchy and first
TBP uniformly after 4 years are getting positive recommendations from the Joint
Committee, a very positive and bold step towards the total resolution of the
issue. Our efforts to get the proposal of E1A and E2A scales rejected by DoT
and DPE was the turning point in the struggle.
The report will be submitted to CMD, BSNL on
05.10.2015, after his return from tour.
As expected, two committee members from
official side, Smt. Madhu Arora, GM(Estt) and Smt. Smitha Choudhary, GM(EF)
given dissent note. While GM(Estt) given some alternate suggestions atleast,
GM(EF) completely disagree with all the positive recommendations which benefits
the company as well as the Executives.
The main recommendations are:
a) JTO to SDE and equivalent eligibility shall be
5 years of regular service in the grade and a benchmark to be kept as Good and
not more than one Average. For SC/ST candidates two Average may be allowed.
b) SDE to Sr SDE and equivalent eligibility shall
be 5 years of regular service in the grade and benchmark to be kept as Good and
not more than one Average. For SC/ST candidates two Average may be allowed.
c) Sr SDE to DE and equivalent eligibility shall
be 5 years of regular service in the grade and benchmark to be kept as Good and
not more than one Average. For SC/ST candidates two Average may be allowed.
d) DE to DGM promotion will be restricted to the
availability of posts. The balance DEs may be promoted as Jt DGM (parking Lot).
DE to DGM and equivalent eligibility shall be 5 years of regular service as DE and
bench mark to be kept as Very Good and not more than one Good. For SC/ST
candidates not more than two Good.
e) DGM to JAG- SG and equivalent may be promoted
in the grade of E6 in 5 years as per existing time bound promotion scheme with
the bench mark of Very Good and not more than one Good.
f) The bench marks in above (c) & (d) are
same as in Schedule -II of existing CPC as per Group A RRs.
(g) There are some UPSC recruited DEs or
equivalent of 1995 batch etc as on today. All UPSC recruits of all batches may
be promoted en-bloc to DGM if they meet the bench mark. The executives already
promoted to higher post on post based promotion will stand senior en-bloc.
Agenda No.3
To examine the implementation of first time bound
promotion uniformly after four years w.e.f 01.10.2000.
Committee is of the view that after the recommendation
given above for CPSU cadre hierarchy, this issue gets resolved partially. As
per recommendation already given for Agenda 1 in the third meeting of committee
on 09.07.2015, the minimum service required for upgradation from E2 to E3 as
proposed in (a) above is 5 years.
To address the anomaly, the committee recommends
that first pay scale upgradation will be given in maximum of five years instead
of six years, notionally w.e.f 01.10.2000. However, existing provision of first
time bound promotion after reaching minimum of net higher scales in four years
shall remain unaffected.
