SERIOUS DISPARITY REGARDING SBCO CADRE IN 7th PAY COMMISSION

                                                                                                                     21.11.2015

Dear friends,

Vanakkam.

By this time, you all would come across the recommendations of  7th Pay commission report. One serious aspect relating to our SBCO cadre has been brought to the knowledge of our General Secretary to take up the issue with Confederation and Federation.

The same is reproduced below for your kind information 

The demand of higher pay PA (SBCO) to consider at par with audit staff has been rejected by 7th CPC stating that qualification for entry level in the cadre is equivalent to Postal Assistants (ie) 10 + 2 scheme.

Pl refer to the 11.8.21 of 7th CPC wherein analysis and recommendations for IPOs are given.

IPOs from direct recruitment are placed with GP 4600/- and IPOs from Departmental promotion are placed with GP 4200/- and hence now they are upgraded to 4600/-GP ignoring the qualification criteria.

 The basic qualification for direct IPOs is fixed as a Degree where as there is no such norms to IPOs passed in the Departmental examination.

 If the higher pay  is possible to IPO cadre, why not it is extended to SBCO cadre as we are doing the same work as organised accounts cadre.
