Friday 3 August 2018


          Fill up 4, 12,752 Central government civilian regular sanctioned posts lying vacant for years. Stop inducting on fixed term contract. Reguralise all casual, contract, outsourcing employees.

         Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers (CCGEW) along with other independent Federations, Central trade unions, Mass Organisations and other employees organisations of organised and unorganised  sectors have given the call to join Joint Mass Rally  of employees before Parliament on 5th September 2018 and make it historic success.

        This joint mass rally of employees is being organised to give final warning to the Central Government to stop and change the anti people, anti workers, neo liberal  economic policies which are creating untold sufferings and miseries to the common man and entire working class including farmers and to defend their livelihood , hard earned democratic rights and to defeat the designs of big corporate which are responsible for exploitation of employees.

        None of the demands of 7th CPC related issues has been settled by the present Central Govt. The assurance given by the Group of ministers during the negotiation with NJCA leaders in the wake of impending strike from 11th July 2016 to revise the minimum wage and fitment factor has not been fulfilled yet.

        Our demand of scrapping New Pension Scheme or to give guarantee of minimum 50 % of the last pay drawn has not been considered. The Employees who joined service on or after 1-1-2004 are getting very meager pension after retirement. As per RTI information, out of 32 lakh Central Govt Employees 17, 58,144 employees have come under the purview of New Pension Scheme.  The Government has set up one committee to stream line NPS but scrapping or guarantee of 50% pension is not mandated. The number of employees is increasing day by day and discontentment is also growing day by day and this volcano  can burst at any time which will be uncontrollable to the Govt.

        Six lakhs posts in various Central Govt. Departments were declared  vacant by 7th CPC at the time of submission of its report. Every month retirement of employees is taking place. This number may increase. But after lapse of 4 years vacancies have not been filled up.

        The Government is not ready to consider the most genuine demands of Central Govt. Employees i.e HRA Arrears, MACP Bench Mark, MACP Promotional Hierarchy and date of effect from 01-01-2016, option – 1 for pensioners.

        After 16  days of successful GDS Strike, The Kamlesh Chandra Committee Report has been implemented w.e.f July 2018 but the upgraded pay scales as recommended by committee have been implemented w.e.f July 18   instead of Jan-16. Positive recommendations either diluted or curtailed.

        Large scale Out-Sourcing, Contractorisation and Privatisation in Govt. Services has become the order of day. Large scale corporatization and privatisation is taking place in Railway and Defence.

Railway stations are being given to private companies to maintain and develop for which they will charge user fees. Ordnance factories have been declared to be handed over to multinational and national companies for defence production. 12 out of 17 Printing Presses have been closed. Only one Postal Printing Press at Bhubaneshwar is also under process of closure.

        Trade union facilities are being curtailed. Even ban has been imposed on Dharnas and orders are issued not to grant any type of leave to any official on the day of such notified Dharna or Demonstration. This is attack on the democratic rights of employees.

        
        The draconian rules under FR56(J) and Pension Rule 48 are being misused to retire the employees compulsorily . Stop victimisation of Government employees those who are not willing to act upon whims and fancies of higher authority.
