Policy for wage
negotiations for workmen in Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs)
The Union Cabinet today
approved the proposal for permitting the management of Central Public Service
Enterprises (CPSEs) to initiate wage negotiations generally effective from
01.01.2012, subject to the condition that negotiated scales of pay would not come
in conflict with existing scales of pay of executives / officers and
non-unionized supervisors of the respective CPSEs.
This will benefit workmen
of those CPSEs which opted for 5 years of wage settlement w.e.f. 01.01.2007
and they can now go for another wage negotiation for 5 years w.e.f.
01.01.2012.
Background :
There are 260 CPSEs in
the country employing 13.98 lakh persons (2.74 lakh executives, 0.31 lakh
non-unionized supervisors and 10.93 lakh unionized supervisors and workmen)
as on 31.3.2012.

No decision on central staff retirement age on cabinet meeting
Though a number of newspapers and websites did spread the news that cabinet is likely to enhance central employees' retirement age by two years today, nothing of this kind has been announced after the cabinet meeting held on today, 04.06.2013. As per information available with us, the Govt. has already taken in principle decision to extend the service for two more years and DOPT has begun to work to implement the same. The formal announcement is yet to be made but will be within this year definitely. Source: www.paycommissionupdate.blogspot.in |
Central govt employees’
retirement age to be extended by 2 years to 62 - Financial Express
The government is
planning to extend the retirement age of all central government employees by
two years — from the current 60 to 62 years. Sources said that an
in-principle decision has been taken in this regard and the department of
personnel and training (DoPT) has begun the work to implement the same. A
formal announcement to this effect is expected this year itself.
The last time the
government extended the retirement age of central government employees was in
1998. It was also a two-year extension from 58. This was preceded by the
implementation of the 5th Pay Commission, which had put severe strain on
government’s finances. Subsequently, all state governments followed the
Centre’s policy by extending the retirement age by two years. Public sector
undertakings followed suit too.
The decision to extend
the retirement age is well-timed both politically and economically.
The UPA government
reckons the move would be a masterstroke. At a time when it is buffeted by
several corruption cases, it is felt that the extension of the retirement age
will go down well with the middle classes. Economically also, the move makes
sense because by deferring payment of lump sum retirement benefits for a
large number of employees by two years, the government would be able to
manage its finances better.
“An in-principle decision
has been taken to increase the retirement age by two years within this year
itself. This would reduce the burden on the fisc from one-time payment of
retirement benefits for employees including defence and railways personnel,”
an official involved in the discussion said. With the fiscal consolidation
high on the government's agenda, this deferment would come handy.
There’s some flip side
too if the retirement age is extended by two years. Those officials
empanelled as secretaries and joint secretaries would have to wait longer to
actually get the posts. And of course, there is the issue of average age
profile of the civil servants being turning north.
It is also felt that any
extension is not being fair with a bulk of people who still look for jobs in
the government.
However, officials point
out that at least it prevents an influential section of the bureaucracy to
hanker for post-retirement jobs with the government like chairmanship of
regulatory bodies or tribunals.
“As it is, a sizeable
section of senior civil servants work for three to five years after the
retirement in some capacity or the other in the government,” said a senior
government official. The retirement age of college teachers and judges are
also beyond 60.
As per a study, the
future pension outgo for the existing Central and State government employees
is estimated at a staggering Rs 1,735,527 crore or 55.88% of GDP at market
prices of 2004-05.
