    Govt forms panel to revisit Gramin Dak Sevaks pay, benefits

The government has formed a committee to review pay structure and social security benefits provided to 'gramin dak sevaks'.

The one-man committee will review and suggest changes in existing wage structures, facilities and other social security benefits provided to 'gramin dak sevaks' (GDS), according to a notification by the Communications and IT Ministry.Gramin dak sevaks are extra-departmental agents recruited by the postal department to serve in rural areas.

They have been demanding pay and facilities at par with regular postal department employees.

"The question of examining the conditions of service and emoluments and other facilities available to the Gramin Dak Sevaks (GDS) has been under the consideration of the Government of India for some time.

The Government has now decided to set up a one-man committee for the purpose," the notification dated November 19 said.

The Committee headed by Retired Member of the Postal Services Board Kamlesh Chandra will go into the service conditions of Gramin Dak Sevaks and suggest changes as considered necessary, it said.

All India GDS Union last week had demanded that the panel should be formed under retired Supreme Court or High Court judge and not under chairmanship of a retired officer.

In the letter to Secretary, Department of Posts, the union said that it will go on one-day hunger strike on November 27 at divisional offices, at circle offices on December 4 and in New Delhi on December 10 if the demand is not met.

The committee will examine the system of branch post offices, employment conditions and the existing structure of wage and emoluments paid to GDS and recommend necessary changes.

It will also "examine and suggest any changes in the method of recruitment, minimum qualification for appointment as Gramin Dak Sevaks and their conduct and disciplinary rules, particularly keeping in view the proposed induction of technology in the Rural Post Offices", the notification said.The Committee will function for a period of one year.

In 7 th CPC Report - GDS Regarding

Report of the Seventh CPC

477 Index

Gramin Dak Sewaks

11.8.48 A demand has been made before the Commission for treating Gramin Dak Sewaks

(GDS) as civil servants at par with other regular employees for all purposes.

Analysis and Recommendations

11.8.49 The Commission has carefully considered the demand and noted the following:

a. GDS are Extra-Departmental Agents recruited by Department of Posts to serve in rural

areas.

b. As per the RRs, the minimum educational qualification for recruitment to this post is

Class X.

c. GDS are required to be on duty only for 4-5 hours a day under the terms and conditions

of their service.

d. The GDS are remunerated with Time Related Continuity Allowance (TRCA) on the

pattern of pay scales for regular government employees, plus DA on pro-rata basis.

e. A GDS must have other means of income independent of his remuneration as a GDS,

to sustain himself and his family.

11.8.50 Government of India has so far held that the GDS is outside the Civil Service of the

Union and shall not claim to be at par with the Central Government employees. The Supreme

Court judgment also states that GDS are only holders of civil posts but not civilian employees.

The Commission endorses this view and therefore has no recommendation with regard to GDS.

             We oppose all the above said matters

 We decide our future course of action with in                      short time.

CABINET APPROVES BONUS CALCULATION CEILING TO RS 7,000/-

                  The Cabinet on Wednesday decided to double the wage ceiling for calculating bonus to Rs 7,000 per month for factory workers and establishments with 20 or more workers.

         “The Payment of Bonus (Amendment) Bill, 2015 to enhance the monthly bonus calculation ceiling to Rs 7,000 per month from existing Rs. 3,500 was approved by Union Cabinet here,” a source said after the Cabinet meeting.

            The amendment bill will be made effective from April 1, 2015. Now the bill will be tabled in Parliament for approval.

                The bill also seeks to enhance the eligibility limit for payment of bonus from the salary or wage of an employee from Rs. 10,000 per month to Rs. 21,000.

             The Payment of Bonus Act 1965 is applicable to every factory and other establishment in which 20 or more persons are employed on any day during an accounting year.

         The bill also provides for a new proviso in Section 12 which empowers the central government to vary the basis of computing bonus.

             At present, under Section 12, where the salary or wage of an employee exceeds Rs. 3,500 per month, the minimum or maximum bonus payable to employees are calculated as if his salary or wage were Rs. 3,500 per month.

           The last amendment to both the eligibility limit and the calculation ceilings under the said Act was carried out in 2007 and was made effective from April 1, 2006.

All CWC/Divisional/Branch Secretaries should take part in HUNGER FAST in front of  Cheif Post Master General Office on 28.10.2015.
