After restructuring of cadre of Artisan staff vide MoD letters No. 11(5)/2009-D(Civ-I) dated 14-06-2010 and 01-12-2010 references have been received from various Branch Accounts Offices regarding fixation of pay. Following clarification may be noted for compliance:
| Issues | Clarifications |
|---|---|
A: How pay will be fixed (i) In respect of skilled workers under RPR’08 w.e.f. 01/01/2006 due to restructuring. (ii) On promotion from Skilled to Highly Skilled after 01/01/2006 | (i) Pay of Skilled workers is to be fixed in PB-I as per the fitment table for the scale of Rs.3050 - 4590 and Grade Pay of Rs.1900/- is to be allowed. (ii) Promotional benefit in the form of increment @ 3% shall be given on Band Pay and Grade Pay of Rs.1900/- on promotion to the grade of Highly Skilled-II after 01/01/2006, in addition HS-II Grade Pay of Rs.2400/- is to be allowed. |
B : How pay will be fixed in respect of the individuals who have become HS-II w.e.f. 01/0112006 due to restructuring. | Pay, which they were drawing as Highly Skilled would be the pay of HS-II and that pay would have to be revised under RPR 2008 in PB-I as per the fitment table for Rs.4000-6000. In addition they will be allowed Grade Pay of Rs.2400/- w.e.f. 01/01/2006. This placement would not count for the purpose of ACP/MACP as per MoD order dated 20.06.2011. |
C : How pay will be fixed in respect of the individuals who have become HS-I w.e.f. 01/01/2006 due to restructuring. | Before 01/01/2006 HS-I and HS-II were merged into one single grade i.e. H.S.(Pay Scale: 4000- 6000) As per MoD order No.11 (5)/2009-D (Civ -I) dated 14/06/2010 HS worker have been divided into HS-II (Grade Pay of Rs.2400/-) and HS-I (Grade Pay of Rs.2800/-) w.e.f. 01/01/2006. Movement from HS-II (4000-6000) to HS-I (4500- 7000) is a promotion. Since SRO 11E dated 28/08/2009 has split up HS workers into HS-II (4000-6000) and HS-I (4500- 7000) w.e.f. 01.01.2006 and the movement from HS to HS-I has been treated as promotion as per MoD No. dated 14.06.2010. it is viewed that promotional benefit under pre-revised scale of pay i.e. from 4000-6000 to the notional scale of 4500-7000 is not to be allowed. The pay will be fixed under RPR’08 as per fitment table corresponding to pre revised scale of 4000- 6000/- and thereafter, promotional benefit in the form of increment @ 3% shall be given on pay in the Band pay and Grade Pay of Rs.2400/- on promotion to the grade of Highly Skilled-I on or after 01/01/2006. The Grade Pay of HS-I i.e. Rs.2800/- is to be given. |
D : How pay of H.S already holding the post of MCM prior to 01.01.2006 will be fixed on 01 .01 .2006 due to restructuring. | Their pay would be fixed as per Note 2A below Rule 7 of CCS RP Rule,2008 i.e. by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 01.01.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding off to the next multiple of Rs. 10/-. If the minimum of the Pay Band-2 is more than the amount arrived at as per above, the pay shall be fixed at the minimum of the PB-2. The Grade Pay corresponding to the post of MCM i.e. 4200/- in PB-2 will also be allowed. |
E : Whether Bunching increment benefit as per Min. Defence notification F.No.11(1)/2008/D(Civ-I) dated 09/09/2008, has to be given to the employees who were drawing pay between Rs.4500/- to Rs.5000/- as on 01/01/2006 since they will be fixed at the minimum of the pay band of RS.9300/- | Benefit of bunching increment may be considered as per provisions laid down below Rule 7 (A) (ii) notification of CCS (RP) Rules 2008. |
F: Whether on IE who was placed to MCM before 1-1-2006 and promoted to MCM on 1-1-2006 is eligible for 3rd MACP with grade pay of Rs.4600 after 30 years on the plea that he was granted only two up-gradations in his entire service i.e. skilled to H.S. and H.S. to MCM. | Yes. Such MCM is eligible for 3 MACP with GP 4600 after 30 years of service if found otherwise eligible, as they got two promotions prior to 01/01/2006 ie. Skilled to HS and HS to MCM. But those IEs who were not placed to MCM before 1 -1-2006 are not eligible for 3 MACP because such persons have got or shall get promotion from skilled to H.S. II, from HS-II to H.S-I and H.S I to MCM. So, there is no scope for 3rd MACP up-gradation. |
2. However, it is opined that in all aforesaid cases, the individuals may submit their options for fixation of pay as mentioned in MoD order dated 14/06/2010 and arrear may be calculated based on option of the individuals.
