House rent allowance (HRA) in 7th CPC rates-Central Govt Employees
All central employees and pensioners eagerly expected the 7th CPC
report and its details. Because pay commission is the only opportunity
for employees to get revised pay structure and allowances.
June 29th Cabinet Approves 7th CPC report
All medias highlighted some main points like minimum pay 18000,New pay
matrix method, and House rent allowance decreased from 10%,20%,30% to
8%,16%,24% respectively.
Employees are not fully satisfied with that news. On July 25th revised
pay rules 2016 published in the gazette notification. Employees were
expected that they will get the new salary with allowances in coming
months. But govt announced that employees will receive the only 7th CPC
pay hike . Allowances will be paid as per 6th CPC rate because govt
wants to examine allowances which 7th pay commission recommended.
Most of the employees are thinking that at the time itself federations
might have been accepted the recommendations and after that negotiate
with govt authorities about minimum pay and allowances.
Employees already received salaries without 7th CPC allowances. So this
situation brings more pressure to trade unions to reach a positive
settlement.
If it fails in this regard then decide to take a struggle path it might be a conversation among employees.
6 th CPC actual implement date is 1/1/2006.But recommendations come to
effect on 1/9/2008.Central employees received arrears from 1/1/2006
without allowances including HRA. In the same manner, all allowances
including HRA not been paid with 7th CPC revised pay. They received HRA
and other allowances in 6th CPC rate which makes a heavy loss to
central employees. They feel happy only if they are getting arrears with
allowances and also govt will receive good responses from staff side.
6th CPC HRA | 7th CPC HRA 24% | Difference |
5754 | 12120 | 6366 |
Due to heavy loss in HRA employees are thinking about the decision which
makes the way to govt for reconsidering allowances. Almost 10 months
crossed without new HRA. No one knows the exact date of getting new HRA
and other allowances with salary. All federations and Associations have
to put their maximum effort to receive arrears with all allowances. The
huge money must take rest at employees hands only because it belongs to
them.
