7th Pay Commission Notification: No annual increment for non-performing employees

7th Pay Commission Notification: No annual increment for non-performing employees

HIGHLIGHTS

• Non-performing Central government employees will not get annual increment if their performance is not up to the mark
• The benchmark for performance appraisal for promotion and financial upgradation has been enhanced to "very good" from "good" level

NEW DELHI: Non-performing Central government employees will not get annual increment if their performance is not up to the mark, the Centre has said.

The benchmark for performance appraisal for promotion and financial upgradation has been enhanced to "very good" from "good" level, the finance ministry said in an order notifying implementation of Seventh Central Pay Commission's recommendations.

The Modified Assured Career Progression (MACP) scheme will continue to be administered at 10, 20 and 30 years of service as before, the ministry said as it "accepted" the pay panel's recommendations.

The recommendation of "withholding of annual increments in the case of those employees who are not able to meet the benchmark either for MACP or a regular promotion within the first 20 years of their service" has been "accepted", it said.

The pay panel had in its report to the Centre said that there is a widespread perception that increments as well as upward movement in the hierarchy happen as a matter of course.

"The perception is that grant of MACP, although subject to the employee attaining the laid down threshold of performance, is taken for granted. This commission believes that employees who do not meet the laid down performance criterion should not be allowed to earn future annual increments.

"The Commission is therefore proposing withholding of annual increments in the case of those employees who are not able to meet the benchmark either for MACP or a regular promotion within the first 20 years of their service. This will act as a deterrent for complacent and inefficient employees," it had said.

There are about 50 lakh Central government employees.

Just good won’t be good enough to get government employees an annual raise now

Just ‘good’ won’t be good enough to get government employees an annual raise now

Central government employees will be entitled to annual increments and promotions, under a new pay structure that takes effect next month, only if they get a ‘very good’ on their report cards rather than just ‘good’ — the current benchmark.

The finance ministry on Tuesday notified new salaries and pensions as well as other recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission that will impact 4.7 million workers and 5.3 million pensioners.

The commission — which reviews pay grades and suggests hikes every 10 years — had recommended an increase of up to 23.55% in overall take-home amounts, fixed the minimum monthly pay at Rs 18,000, and revised the highest pay to Rs 2.5 lakh for officers of the rank of cabinet secretary, the highest ranking bureaucrat.

Beneficiaries will get arrears from January 2016, to be paid before March 31, 2017.

But with the higher salaries come rigorous performance checks and tougher promotion criteria for the bureaucracy.

“There is one significant aspect where this commission feels a change is required… The commission recommends this benchmark, in the interest of improving performance level, be enhanced from ‘good’ to ‘very good’,” the pay panel had suggested. This was accepted by the government.

The commission had also sought “more stringent criteria such as clearing of departmental examinations or mandatory training before grant of Modified Assured Career Progression”. A panel will now be appointed to streamline the national pension system. The revision is likely to cost the government Rs 1.02 lakh crore annually or 0.7% of GDP.

7th Central Pay Commission Centre seeks states comments on pay hike to IAS,IPS

7th Central Pay Commission Centre seeks states comments on pay hike to IAS,IPS

New Delhi: All states were today asked to send their comments on the proposed recommendations by Seventh Central Pay Commission related to hike in salaries of IAS and IPS officers.

In a letter to chief secretaries of all state governments, the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) said that the central government has accepted the pay panel’s recommendations.

They have been requested to furnish the comments of the state government on the proposed recommendations immediately and positively by August 3, 2016 through fax, it said.

“If no reply is received by this time, it would be presumed that the state government concurs with the said proposals relating to the revision of pay scales of all India services (AIS) officers,” the DoPT said.

There are three all India services–Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS) and Indian Forest Service (IFoS).

The pay panel has recommended a starting salary of Rs 56,100 per month at entry level for these and officers of Group A services like Indian Revenue Service.

The Finance Ministry had on Monday issued an order notifying implementation of almost all the recommendations of the panel.

In that, the DoPT has been authorised to take action regarding pay and related issues concerning IAS, IPS and IFoS officers.

The three-member Seventh Central Pay Commission, which had submitted its report on November 19, 2015, was divided over the issue of financial and career-related edge given to IAS officers as against those belonging to the other services.

IAS officers presently get a two-year edge over other services for getting empanelled to come on deputation at the Centre.

Besides, they also get two additional increments at the rate of 3 per cent over their basic pay at three promotion stages i.E., promotion to the Senior Time Scale (STS), to the Junior Administrative Grade (JAG) and to the Non-Functional Selection Grade (NFSG) after putting in about four, eight and 13 years of service, respectively.

A confederation representing thousands of officers of 20 civil services, including the IPS, have been demanding pay parity and other benefits enjoyed by IAS officers.

“Regarding pay and related issues concerning all India services, appropriate action will be taken by Department of Personnel and Training to give effect to the decisions on these matters as may be applicable to them,” the Finance Ministry’s notification said.
