Non-settlement of long pending demands.
Sir,
A meeting of PJCA comprising NFPE, FNPO, AIPEU-GDS & NUGDS was held at NFPE
office North Avenue Post Office Building, New Delhi on 16th
November, 2016 under the presidentship of Shri D. Theagarajan Secretary General
FNPO. All General Secretaries of both the Federations participated in the
meeting. After threadbare discussion the following resolution, programme of
action and Charter of Demand was finalized.
RESOLUTION
Postal Joint Council of Action (PJCA), views with grave concern the totally
negative attitude of the Central Government in settling the common demands of
the Central Government employees including increase in minimum wage and fitment
formula and other modifications sought for by the National Joint Council of
Action (NJCA) and JCM (NC) staff side.
This PJCA further notes that in the Postal department also due to the negative
attitude of the Government and Postal administration long pending demands are
remaining unsettled. None of the 7th CPC related demands of various
cadres of Postal department are settled. Regularization of Gramin Dak Sevaks
and grant of all benefits of regular employees on pro-rata basis is still
pending. The New Pension Scheme (NPS) has created uncertainty among the
employees recruited after 01.01.2004, about their pensionary benefits.
Department has unilaterally issued orders for outsourcing booking and delivery
of registered, speed post and express parcel post articles and engaging staff
on each Sunday & holiday to deliver parcels of e-commerce companies . The
task force committee recommendations are not yet dropped, no effective remedial
measures are taken to streamline the functioning of CBS/CSI, revision of wages
and payment of arrears of casual labourers from 01.01.2006 is still pending in
many circles, more than 60000 vacancies in various cadres including promotional
posts are remaining unfilled. Now due to monetization Scheme more
difficulties are being faced by the staff due to lack of proper infrastructure
and engaging staff beyond duty hours. All the above issues are agitating the
minds of the employees for a long time.
The PJCA after reviewing the situation prevailing in the Postal department came
to the unanimous conclusion that to settle the above issues, serious
agitational programmes are to be launched. Accordingly the PJCA resolve to
implement the following phased programme of action.
