www.bsnlnewsbyashokhindocha.blogspot.com M-9426201999
[09.12.2009]Historic Agreement signed today, (9-12-2009), on settlement of Pay Anomalies/Aberrations:- Due to point to point fixation of pay on conversion from CDA to IDA pay scales on 1-10-2000, in several cases the seniors in higher pay scales got less than their juniors in lower pay scales.

In MTNL, it couldn’t be settled since there was no rule to settle it. In BSNL, when NFTE took up the case, the management convinced them that it is not possible to settle these anomalies.

After getting recognition, the BSNLEU and United Forum took up the issue seriously and a Committee was constituted with management and union representatives for settlement of these anomalies. The Committee gave its report for settling these anomalies as per Revised Pay Rules applicable for Central Government Employees and it was sent for the approval of DoT.

The DoT sent back the file with the objection that the Revised Pay Rules were not applicable for settling these anomalies/aberrations since it was conversion from CDA to IDA Pay Scales and was not pay revision.

Thereafter a Committee was constituted under the chairmanship of Shri P.K.Misra, DGM (Estt.) Consisting of representatives of the management and Union to recommend how to settle these anomalies. The Committee met several times and finally an agreement is signed to day (9-12-2009) between the Official and Staff sides. The agreement is that the difference in the pay between the junior in the lower pay scale and the senior in the higher pay scale as on 1-10-2000 will be paid as Personal Pay to the Senior.

The Staff Side in the Committee was represented by Com V.A.N.Namboodiri GS BSNLEU and Com P.Asokababu AGS BSNLEU. <<< Copy of the agreement >>>

[26.11.2009]Meeting of the Wage Negotiation Committee is held today. Discussions continued on the construction of new pay scales, including the span. Staff side strongly argued that the conversion factor should be at least 2, whereas the management side was not prepared to accept anything more than 1.91.After discussion, management side said that they wanted some more time for their internal discussion. Hence, today's meeting ended without taking any decision. Next meeting will take place on 04-12-2009. In that meeting along with payscales, revision of perks and allowances will also be discussed.
