[Through proper channel]
Respected
Sir,
Sub
: Request to keep the implementation of Cadre Restructuring proposal of Chennai
GPO in abeyance till amicable settlement of the issues raised by the staff
side- reg.
Ref
: Dte. Memo No. 25-04/2012-PE-1 dated 27-05-2016
I
profoundly submit the following on the aforesaid subject for kind consideration
and request to take appropriate action to Cadre Restructuring proposal of
Group-C in Chennai GPO. In this regard a kind reference is invited to the
letters already submitted by the Secretary General of FNPO and NFPE to the
Secretary [Posts] and Member [P].
1.
The posts in post
offices viz. System Administrator, Business Executive, CPC Supervisor, PLI
Group Leaders, Supervisor Clearing, CTS Clearing, DBT Clearing, Supervisor E-payment
Nodal, POID Card Nodal etc. May be upgraded to LSG, HSG-II and HSG-I under
Cadre restructuring accordingly.
2.
The post of
Treasure need not be upgraded to LSG, as it is a two-year tenure post with
special allowance. In case, the Treasurer posts are to be upgraded then the
tenure shall be four years with allowance at par with LSG. The supervisory
work performed in Savings bank, Money
order, Registration, Speed post, Delivery, Administration, PLI-CPC, SB
Clearing, DBT Clearing, Accounts, E-payment Nodal, POID card Nodal were ignored
and left over and not considered for up gradation to LSG in Cadre
restructuring.
3.
In the cadre
structuring orders, the number of post of LSG and Pas have been identified as
follows at Chennai GPO.
LSG 9
posts
PA 175
posts
As per the promotion ration comparison in
Cadre restructuring review, there should be 1 LSG post for every 3 Pas [1:3
ration] and accordingly, this office is entitled to have nearly 58 LSG posts
where as only 9 LSG posts were identified.
4.
Out of 9 LSG
posts allotted to this office, 6 posts are identified for Treasury branch. This
means all the standard LSG officials now holding norm based supervisory posts
will have to work as Postal Assistants in Treasury branch.
5.
Since only 9 LSG
posts were identified at Chennai GPO, the Postal Assistants who are considered
for LSG posts as per Circle gradation list will be offered posts in other
divisions which will have cascading effect of further reduction in PA cadre and
this create unrest among the officials and also deficiency in service to the
general public due to reduction of PAs
6.
Most of the
Postal Assistants at this office who are due for promotion as LSG in Cadre
restructuring [for which the grade pay has been fixed as Rs.2800/-] have
already reached the grade pay of Rs.4200/- and Rs.4600/- and the promotion to
LSG will not at all benefit them.
7.
If LSG promotion
is accepted by the officials, then there will be large number of supervisory
posts in HSG-II and HSG-I will remain vacant for long time and in order to fill
these posts, minimum qualification of service for promotion shall be removed as
a one-time measure after obtaining permission from Nodal ministry. Also, all
the officials eligible for promotion in HSG-II/HSG-I shall be given notional
promotion. Such notional promotion was granted from 1983 for LSG and from 1991
for HSG-II/I.
8.
Although the
Cadre restructuring proposal signed by the staff side and the Administration
side during the year 2008, it has been decided to implement this year after a
gap of nearly 9 years. Due to this inordinate delay, there will be large scale
dislocation of senior officials leading to much difficulty to them and their
families and moreover there will be no financial benefit to them as they all
reached the LSG/HSG-II/HSG-I pay scale after getting MACP-1, MACP-2 and MACP-3
promotions.
Hence, taking the above
valuable points into consideration, the JCA of Chennai GPO urges the
Administration to consider minimal disturbance of staff so as to avoid decline
in business performance and maintaining the positive upward trend of this
office.
It is once
again requested to keep in abeyance the implementation of cadre restructuring
proposal till the genuine demands of the staff side are redressed in an
amicable manner and a negotiated settlements is reached between official side
and staff side.
We hope the
Chief Postmaster General Tamil Nadu Circle will understand the genuine
difficulties of the officials who are to be promoted under Cadre Review a
positive and helping hand to ameliorate their grievances on Sympathetic and
humanitarian consideration
.
A line of reply on the action taken is
highly solicited.
D.A. PJCA [Cadre restructuring]
Yours
Faithfully,
Branch Secretary Branch
