CHANDIGARH, OCT 27
Haryana Chief Minister Mr Manohar Lal today announced that Haryana would be the first State in the country to give the benefit of 7th Central Pay Commission (CPC) to its employees from January 1,2016, the date from which the employees of the Central Government have been given its benefit.
The Chief Minister, who was addressing a press conference after presiding over the Cabinet meeting here today, said that the State Government has decided in principle to grant the benefit of revised pay package to its employees broadly on the pattern of the pay package extended by the Central Government to its employees based on the recommendations of the 7th CPC.
Earlier, the Cabinet considered and approved the report of the Committee for Implementation of recommendations of 7th Central Pay Commission (CPC).
The Chief Minister said that the contractual employees like Anganwadi workers and Data Entry Operators and those engaged under the outsourcing policy would also be benefitted in the same proportion in which the other employees would get the benefit of the CPC. The Chief Minister said that the Departments of the Government would submit their proposals in this regard within a week. Also, the risk allowance admissible to the police personnel would continue upto March 31,2017, whereas earlier it was admissible upto the year 2015.
The Committee had received more than 200 representations, which were considered while formulating the report.
It was observed that the pay scales system upto 5th CPC, was changed to Pay Band and Grade Pay in 6th CPC. In 7th CPC a new system of pay matrix has been introduced.
About 2.5 lakh employees of Group-A, B, C and D will get a hike of 32 per cent over basic pay as on January 1,2016. Against 32 existing grade pays, 21 pay levels have been prescribed of which 14 levels are same as of Government of India whereas seven are different. The pay matrix is simpler, easier to understand and closer to the pay structure of Government of India. About two lakh employees of Group A, B and C will have identical pay levels of matrix to that of Government of India.
By introducing only 21 pay levels, inter-departmental disparities would be settled to a large extent and the demand of Group-C employees for Government of India pattern will be met to a large extent.
Pay of all existing employees will be fixed uniformly by multiplying a fitment factor of 2.57 and the resultant figure will be placed in the same/ next cell of relevant level.
Group - D posts have been retained on the demand of major Employees Unions and the administrative needs of the State. Grade pay of Group-D Rs 1300, Rs 1400 merged with higher grade pay of Rs 1650 and their minimum pay will be Rs 16,900.
Assured Career Progression (ACP) will be more attractive for Group-C and D employees. About one lakh employees, (40,000 of Group-D and 60,000 of Group-C) will be benefited due to higher ACP structure.
The Cabinet also considered and approved Haryana Civil Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2016 and Haryana Civil Services (Assured Career Progression) Rules, 2016.
The Cabinet also authorized the Government to issue such suitable instructions as deemed necessary to disburse payment of arrears on account of revision of pay in a manner proposed in the report.
REVISION OF PENSION: The Haryana Government has constituted a three-member committee under the Chairmanship of Additional Chief Secretary, Finance, Mr P. Raghavendra Rao for revision of pension, as per the recommendations of the 7th Central Pay Commission.
The other two members of the Committee are IAS officers namely Mr Anil Malik and Mr Shrikant Walgad.
The Cabinet also approved the draft of the amendment in Service Rules of Steno Typist/Junior Scale Stenographer/Senior Scale Stenographer in Public Health Engineering Department.
These Rules would be known as Haryana Public Works Department, Public Health Branch, headquarters Office Ministerial (Group C) Service (Amendment) Rules, 2016.
The Cabinet also approved the draft of Haryana Industries and Commerce Department (Group A) Service Rules, 2016 as the existing Service Rules have been comprehensively revised to bring the same in conformity with the restructuring plan of the Department.
It was observed that in the existing Group A Service Rules, there was a provision of merit-cum-seniority for promotion but criteria was not mentioned. However, in the draft Service Rules, the criteria of merit-cum-seniority for promotion has been prescribed on the basis of score of ACR and seniority. The same provision was notified in the Group B Service Rules of the Department in 2014.
