MP's Justice Majithia wage boards for working journalists and non-journalists
0 comments Posted by Steve Benn at 10:06 PMMembers in both Houses of Parliament today made a strong demand for implementation of the recommendations of the Justice Majithia wage boards for working journalists and non-journalists without further delay.
Raising the matter during Zero Hour in the Lok Sabha, Manish Tewari (Cong) pointed out that a large number of journalists and non-journalists were agitating across the country demanding speedy implementation of the wage boards recommendations that were made three months back.
"If we really want to empower journalists serious cognisance should be given to their demands and the wage boards recommendations should be implemented forthwith with effect from January 2008," Tewari said.
He noted that the wage boards, headed by Justice G R Majithia, to review the salaries of journalists and non-journalists was set up in 2007.

In what can be termed as a major breakthrough, DoT issued order on 15.03.11 for pension revision for those who retired from BSNL prior to 01.01.2007. Until now there is no order for revision of pension in IDA scales. Due to the combined efforts of the JAC, BSNLEU and the AIBDPA, cabinet took decision for revision of pension on IDA scales. Following this DoT has issued order ON 15.03.11. We congratulate all the comrades who are retired prior to 01.01.2007, who will be benefited from this order.

0 comments Posted by Steve Benn at 10:02 PMThe incentives will be initially paid out of cost savings made by the department in that fiscal year
The United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government has finally decided to implement the Performance Related Incentive Scheme (PRIS) recommended by the Sixth Pay Commission for all Central government employees. An announcement is expected in the next couple of days, government sources toldThe Hindu. Those government employees who make the cut will start earning their incentives in 2012.
A Committee of Secretaries (COS) chaired by Cabinet Secretary K. M. Chandrasekhar approved the broad contours of the PRIS on March 8, and asked the Department of Expenditure and Performance Management Division, Cabinet Secretariat, to work out guidelines to implement the scheme. Members of the COS included Finance Secretary Sushma Nath, who was also member-secretary of the Commission.
Any department, to qualify for financial incentives, will have to get a performance rating of 70 per cent or more on its Results-Framework Document (RFD) and implement a bio-metric access control system in its offices. As suggested by the Commission, the incentives will be initially paid out of cost savings made by the department in that fiscal year and hence there will be no additional burden on the exchequer for implementing the PRIS, government sources said. Initially, for every rupee saved by the department, it will allow to distribute up to 15 paise depending on its performance.
The PRIS will cover all employees of the department. While incentives paid to the Secretaries will depend entirely on departmental performance reflected in the RFD, incentives paid to Joint Secretaries will depend on a weighted average of their division's performance and departmental performance. Incentives for junior employees will depend primarily on their individual performance.
However, all employees will need to go through a rigorous performance appraisal system consistent with the RFD evaluation methodology.
Indeed, incentives will start rolling out only after a department has prepared two rounds of robust RFDs, so as to truly capture departmental performance. Given that 2010-11 was the first year for implementation of 12-month RFDs, performance incentives will be paid from 2012-13 to employees who make the cut.
The decision to implement the PRIS comes in the wake of the Prime Minister's Performance Monitoring and Evaluation System (PMES) for government departments that was approved in September 2009.
Interestingly, of the departments that have gone through the exercise, there have been some notable exceptions including the Ministries of Home, Finance, Defence, External Affairs, and the Prime Minister's Office (PMO).
Objections
This has led to objections from officials of other Ministries: the feeling is that these key ministries and departments influence the work of other departments, and unless they, too, are brought under the scanner, the RFD will be redundant and unproductive.
The view from the Cabinet Secretariat is that the Prime Minister did not keep any department out of the ambit of the evaluation process, but it was felt that it would be better to implement it in phases for practical, operational reasons.
The original idea was to cover all 84 ministries and departments - it started with 59 departments in the last quarter of 2009-10, and currently covers 62 departments.

Central Govt issues order for 10% D.A.. View the Railway order also.
Central Govt. employees are likely to get 6% D.A. from January 2011
0 comments Posted by Steve Benn at 9:55 PMAs per the All India Index published by Labour Bureau, Govt. of India the Dearness Allowance payable to the Central Govt.staff with effect from January 2011 may not be more than 6 percent.
The figure for Nov'10 has just released and it stands at 182. The December figure is expected in the end of January. Even if the figure touches 185 in December, which is very unlikely, the D.A. hike will be limited to 6%.
Only thing to cheer is the fixed allowances such as Children Education Allowance, Conveyance Allowance for some category of staff will be 25% more as the D.A. will certainly cross the 50% mark. It may be remembered that D.A. linked allwances such as Transport Allowances will be unchanged.
