Pay Fixation in the New Pay Structure : The fitment of each employee in the new pay matrix is proposed to be done by multiplying his/her basic pay on the date of implementation by a factor of 2.57.
The figure so arrived at is to be located in the
new pay matrix, in the level that corresponds to the employee’s grade pay on
the date of implementation, except in cases where the Commission has
recommended a change in the existing grade pay. If
the identical figure is not available in the given level, the next higher
figure closest to it would be the new pay of the concerned employee. A couple
of examples are detailed below to make
the process amply clear.
The pay in the new pay matrix is to be fixed in
the following manner:
Step 1: Identify Basic Pay (Pay in
the pay band plus Grade Pay) drawn by an employee as on the date of
implementation. This figure is ‘A’.
Step 2: Multiply ‘A’ with 2.57, round-off to the
nearest rupee, and obtain result ‘B’.
Step 3: The figure so arrived at, i.e., ‘B’ or the
next higher figure closest to it in the Level assigned to his/her grade pay,
will be the new pay in the new pay matrix. In case the value of ‘B’ is less
than the starting pay of the Level, then the
pay will be equal to the starting pay of that level
Example I
i. For example an employee H is presently drawing
Basic Pay of Rs. 55,040 (Pay in the Pay Band Rs. 46340 + Grade Pay Rs. 8700 =
Rs. 55040). After multiplying Rs. 55,040 with 2.57, a figure of Rs. 1,41,452.80
is arrived at. This is rounded off to Rs. 1,41,453.
ii. The level corresponding to GP 8700 is level
13, as may be seen from Table 4, which gives the full correspondence between
existing Grade Pay and the new Levels being proposed.
iii. In the column for level 13, the figure
closest to Rs.1,41,453 is Rs.1,41,600.
iv. Hence the pay of employee H will be fixed at
Rs.1,41,600 in level 13 in the new pay matrix as shown below:
ii.
However, assuming that the Commission has recommended that the post
occupied by T should be placed one level higher in GP 4600. T’s basic
pay would then be Rs 24,600 (20000 + 4600). Multiplying this by 2.57
would fetch Rs. 63,222.
iii. This value would have to be located in the matrix in Level 7 (the upgraded level of T).
iv.
In the column for Level 7 Rs. 63,222 lies between 62200 and 64100.
Accordingly, the pay of T will be fixed in Level 7 at Rs.64,100.
