“VERY GOOD” BENCH MARK FOR MACP AND DENIAL OF PROMOTIONAL
HEIRACHY
Eversince, the MACP
scheme was introduced in 2008, confederation and the JCM staff side has been
demanding promotional hierarchy instead of grade pay hierarchy. Govt, instead
of considering this genuine demand, suddenly issued orders
imposing “very good” bench mark condition for MACP. The JCM staffside was not
even consulted.
JCM staff side,
secretary wrote a letter to cabinet secretary on 28-07-2016 as follows:
“The Govt. has
accepted one of the adverse recommendations of 7th CPC without holding any
consultation with the staff side. The recommendation of the 7th CPC regarding
bench mark for performance appraisal for promotion and financial upgradation
under MACPs, to be enhanced from “Good” to “very good”, has been accepted by the
Govt. without considering the implication on the morale of the Central
Government employees... We are of the firm opinion that Govt. should reconsider
their decision on the above issues and we request you to kindly withdraw the
same.”
Subsequently the case
was discussed in the JCM standing committee meeting also on 25-10-2016, as an
agenda item given by staff side. Inspite of all these, the Government is not
ready to withdraw or modify the orders.
This shows the
attitude of the BJP led NDA Govt. towards JCM staff side and Central Govt.
employees.
6.
NATIONAL ANOMALY COMMITTEE
The National Anomaly
Committee was constituted on 09-09-2016. Two meetings are held to discuss the
anomaly regarding calculation of Disability Pension for Defence force
personnel. As per the definition of anomaly notified by the
Government no genuine
“anomaly” can be termed as “anomaly”. Hence the JCM staff side has demanded to
modify the definition of anomaly, as defined in earlier National Anomaly
Committees constituted by Govt. at the time of previous pay commissions. But
till this day, Govt. has not conceded the request of the staff side.
7.

ADVANCES ETC.
None of the above
demands are discussed with the JCM staff side.
