Dear Friends,
As all of you
are aware that the Govt of India has announced its approval for constitution of
the VII th Pay Commission for the Central Govt employees. Its formal constitution with terms
& references is awaited.
The
7th Pay commission has been announced by the Govt. We have to make all out
efforts to represent before the VII Pay Commission to get best possible
recommendations for our cadre in particular and common benefits admissible to
all employees in general. This depends largely on how best we are in a position
to convince the Pay Commission about our expectations when we get the
opportunity to incorporate our legitimate requirements in a memorandum to be
submitted to Pay Commission and further justfy the same during the on-screen
presentation before the commission.
Please find herewith questionnaire for our branches/members. Get it filled up by
the members, compile the same and consolidate. Discuss the consolidated views
in EB/GB Meeting draft a proposal and send the same to NEHQ latest by the 15th
Jan/2013 for further compilation and discussion in National Council Meeting.
The sprit behind this is to
involve the grass root level of this association in the process of formulating
our views/proposals which are to be sent
to the Pay Commission. We have tried to
make out a brief on the specific issues
inviting proposals/views. Your cooperation / involvement, shall help us
to make out a memorandum with full logic
and justifications.
Remember, Every suggestion you
make, matters to the Association.

An Overview on the Earlier Pay Commissions
An Overview on the Earlier Pay Commissions
by Shri RR Pashine, Expert Member/7th CPC Committee
All the six pay commissions have taken many aspects into consideration to
prescribe the pay structure for government servants.
1.
In the First Pay
Commission the concept of ‘living wage’
was adopted. (Implemented in 1946 )
2.
In Second Pay Commission it
had been reiterated that the pay structure and working condition to be crafted
in a way so as to ensure the effective functioning of government mechanism.
(Implemented in 1957)
3.
The Third Pay Commission
adopted the concept of ‘Need Based wage’ (Implemented in 1973 )
4.
The Fourth CPC had recommended the government to constitute
Permanent Machinery to undertake periodical review of pay and allowances of
Central Government employees, but which got never implemented. (Implemented in 1986 )
5.
In Fifth Pay Commission all
federations demanded that the pay scale should be at par with the public
sector. But the pay commission didn’t accept this and told that the demand for
parity with the Public Sector was however difficult to concede as it felt that
the Job content and condition of service in the government and public sector
not necessarily the same. There were essential differences between the two
sectors. The Fifth CPC had
Compressed many Scales. The number of pay scales was reduced from 51 pay scales
as on 31.12.1995 to 34 pay scales by the Fifth CPC .
(Implemented in1996)
6.
The Sixth Pay Commission
mainly focused on removing ambiguity in respect of various pay scales and
mainly focused on reducing number of pay scales .It recommended for removal of
Group-D cadre.The total number of grades reduced to 20 spread across four
distinct running pay bands; one Apex Scale and another grade for the post of
Cabinet Secretary/equivalent as against 35 standard pay scales existing
earlier. The new concept of Pay Band & Grade Pay was introduced and Implemented
w.ef. 01- 01- 2006.

JWM is the lowest executive in the

ordnance Factories shouldering the entire responsibility of head of section
He executes as a vital link between his subordinates & senior officers.
It is suggested that since the Revised MACP provides Three Up gradations, the
Proposed Pay scale for AWM , WM & DGM posts be also suggested. Further
while formulating the pay scale of JWM, it should be kept in mind that there
is a continuous degradation /erosion in the payscale of JWM since last three

may also be kept in mind.
