A DEMAND TO 7th CENTRAL PAY COMMISSION - CHILD CARE LEAVE(CCL) FOR MALE GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES

We know that a lot of anomalies pending in front of National Anomaly Committee.Few of them were solved and remaining anomalies will be discussed in the next NAC meeting.Even though central govt announced 7th CPC.It is a amicable news for CG employees.This is the time to speak out the problems we faced in 6th CPC through social media and blogs.Child Care Leave is one of the important issue to male central government employees.

To be in synchronised pattern with the Fastidious modern world and to fulfill a family's basic needs such as begetting good education for their child's fruitful future it becomes at most necessity that both the husband and wife should earn for their family.

The reality of high priced commodities which the common man can relish only in his dreams. The mountainous rise of land value which acts as a ardent barrier for fulfilling one own dream home,the dizziness caused by cost of rental houses and finally the enormous increase to gigantic proportion of the fees paid to schools for getting a decent education to their children-These force and make it definite that both the life partners should earn to make both ends meet.

In this economic warfare the grave truth is that the children who should be in the warmth and care of their parents spend and shove their time in the company of electronic gadgets

During important moments i.e the child's ill health , the child's important examination days the 6th pay commission has paved way for the mother to be by the childs sideby, the introduction of the plan known as CCL it has been wholeheartedly welcomed by one and all .

Having borne in its mind that todays childcare the sculptors of tomorrows modern India, the central government has given this CCL which is a formidable concession

Of the couples who got to work to earn their living ,those of them who are both central govt employees are very few.

In certain families the husband will be a central govt employee while the wife may work in a private firm.
In some others the husband may work in a private firm while his spouse may work in a central govt institution

For instance let us keep in mind that the husband is a central govt employee and his wife works in a private institution the critend is that they would not reap the beneath of CCL as it as certained only to the female central govt employee.

We are all very well aware that the children need the warmth and care of both parents in equal measures.If it is so why then the central govt has not allotted CCL for their male employees.

During pregnancy time the female central govt employee are given maternity leave On similar basis the male employees are given paternity leave.This seems to be acceptable to a certain extent.But [to say frankly] the allotment of CCL only to the female central govt employee is not acceptable.

It is the same payment for same work for both the female and male employees in a central govt institution.Similarly the concessions given should be in common for both of them.If a female employee is given two years CCL the male employee also can be given nearly the same if not equal.

There are grounds on which a male central govt employee loses his wife or he diverse why hasn't the govt not taken into consideration the condition of their children.Henceforth ccl should be given to the male central govt employees though certain conditions can be imposed. Only then the reason for which this concession (ccl) has been introduced could be realised to it full extent.

PROJECTED PAY STRUCTURE AFTER 7TH PAY COMMISSION
(BASED ON COMPARATIVE RISE FROM 1
ST
TO 6
TH
CPC)
Demand for setting of Seventh Pay Commission is
being raised since January 2011 on completion of 5 years
since the date of effect of the sixth Pay Commission - as recommended by the last 2 Pay commissions.
Till now six pay commissions had been constituted since 1946 - to review and recommend pay structure of
central government employees.
All the six pay commissions have taken many aspects in
to consideration to prescribe the pay structure for
government servants.
In the first pay commission the concept of ‘living wage’ was adopted.
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.
The third pay commission adopted the concept of ‘need based wage’
The Fourth CPC had recommended the government to constitute permanent machinery to undertake
periodical review of pay and allowances of Central Go
vernment employees, but which got never implemented.
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 Sixth Central Pay Commission, claimed that it had not only tried to evolve a proper pay package for the
Government employees but also to make recommendatio
ns rationalizing the governmental structure with a
view to improve the delivery mechanisms for
providing better services to the common man
What about seventh pay commission?
Generally every pay commission, before recommending a
pay structure, analyzed all the aspects including the
economic situation of the country, financial resources
of the government, comparison with the public sector,
private sector and state government pay structure etc.
Pay Determination is very complicated and sensitive task. Without any doubt every one accepts that this is
very challenging task too. In order to determine the new pay structure the pay commission has to go through
voluminous data consisting current economic condition, strength of the work force and working condition etc.
If one tries to suggest or comment about 7th pay commission pay scale or about what the seventh pay
commission pay scales, it will seem too pre-mature.
However, we observed an interesting factor which is common to all the past pay commission
recommendations, particularly in the matter of percentage of increase in the pay. Average 3 times increase in
the pay was recommended by each pay commission and it was accepted by government and
implemented (except that the rise was only about 2.26 times after 6th CPC for the scales from S4 to S23 and
nearly 3 times or more for the higher scales).
Average increase after each Pay Commission - is shown in each of the following tables.
Obviously it is simple thing, we can say it a mathemat
ical coincidence that we have in common in all previous
pay commission, but we cannot neglect this. Because it was
there, every time it is noticed that the revised pay
was approximately three times higher than its pre revised pay. Apart from all the factors which has been used
to determine the pay revision, we can use this simple
formula ‘common multiplying factor’ to know the 7th pay
commission pay scale . If next pay commission prefer
to continue the same running pay band and grade pay
system for seventh pay commission also, the pay struct
ure may be like the following projected figures given
below, using common multiplying factor ‘3’. The Following is only the projected figure using common
multiplying factor ‘3’...

Short Description about Sixth Pay Commission
SIXTH PAY COMMISSION
Initially the then government refused to set up sixt
h pay commission to review the pay and allowances of
central government employees. The then finance minister to
ld that there was no need to constitute next pay
commission since 50 % dearness allowance was already
merged with the basic pay. The employees had
threatened to go on a nationwide strike if the government
failed to set up 6th pay commission. In July 2006, the
Cabinet approved setting up of the sixth pay commission. This commission has been set up under the
Chairmanship of Justice B.N.Srikrishna with a timeframe of 18 months to submit the report. The cost of hikes in
salaries is anticipated to be about Rs. 20,000 crore for a total of 3.5 million government employees. The
commission submitted the Report to the Government on March, 24, 2008.
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 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. In many cases, this led to the promotion and feeder cadres
being placed in an identical pay scale. Although Department
of Expenditure issued orders that existence of the
feeder and promotion posts in the same pay scale will not constitute an anomaly, however, these orders have
consistently been rejected by the various courts of th
is country. The sixth pay Commission, therefore, decided
to evolve a new system of pay scales that would
effectively address most of the existing anomalies.
To remove stagnation, introduction of running pay bands for all posts in the Government presently existing in
scales below that of Rs.26,000 (fixed).
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.
Four distinct running pay bands being recommended – one running band each for all categories of employees
in groups ‘B ’and ‘C ’with 2 running pay bands for Group A posts.
Annual increments to be paid in form of three percent of the total of pay in the Pay Band and the corresponding
grade pay. The date of annual increments, in all cases, is
first of July. Employees completing six months and
above in the scale as on July 1 will be eligible.
The revised pay bands have been implemented retrospectively from 1.1.2006. The Fifth CPC also had
recommended implementation of the next Pay Commission
’s revised pay scales from 1.1.2006. This was also
in consonance with demands of a majority of the A
ssociations of Government employees that had sought
implementation of Sixth CPC revised pay scales from 1.1.2006.
Minimum salary at the entry level of PB-1 pay band is Rs.7000 (Rs.5200 as pay in the pay band plus Rs.1800
as grade pay). Maximum salary at the level of Secret
ary/equivalent is Rs.80000. The minimum: maximum ratio
1:12. The increase from V CPC to VI CPC in all grades starts from 2.4 times to 3.7 times. The increase ratio
between 5th pay commission and 6th pay commission is 1:3.
