System Administrators Case - News from NFPE

            The demand for creation of a separate cadre for System Administrators has been discussed several times with the Department. 

                 Last discussion was held in the JCM, Departmental Council meeting and Cadre Restructuring Committee. Department has made it clear that existing System Administrators are not going to be benefited even if a seperate cadre is created and also pointed out certain other adverse aspects of the case. The main points of the Department are (1) In the Recruitment Rules for creating separate cadre Government (DOP & T) will fix higher technical qualifications for the post. (2) Government (DOP & T) will not agree for absorption of existing System Administrators and instead go for direct recruitment as per the Recruitment Rules. (3) Even if a cadre is created there is no much promotional scope in the same cadre as the promotional posts will be very less. Just like Postmaster Cadre they will not get general line promotion and also cannot writ IP & PSS Group B exams. In view of the above all Circle/Divisional Secretaries are requested to inform their views on the following points. (1) Whether we should still stick to our demand for separate cadre (2) Instead whether we should demand special pay or some other benefits for the existing System Administrators.The issue will be again discussed on the next meeting of the Cadre Restructuring Committee to be held on 04-02-2014. 

Send your views by email to nfpehq@gmail.com before 02-02-2014.

Merger of 50% DA may soon be considered - Source

Merger of 50 percent DA may soon be considered by Central Government –Sources - News by GServants.com

Sources close to the Central Government Employees Federations told that Merger of 50% DA will soon be considered by Central Government before the budget session of Parliament in February 2014. According to the sources, the central government is likely to consider the central government employees demand for merging of 50 % DA, for the reason that the DA will be crossing 100% level after January 2014.

The rate of dearness allowance to be paid to govt servants has been increasing consistently due to the rise in the prices of essential commodities for the past two years. In 2011 the rate of DA was at 50 % level. Since then all the Federation demanded the central government to merge the 50 Percent DA with basic Pay. But the government did not accept this demand to merge the DA with basis pay, as it was not recommended by sixth CPC.

The demand would be considered in view of parliament elections

But federations kept on demanding the government that raising dearness allowance alone will not help to compensate the alarming rate of price rice. So they urged the government to consider their demand favorably. It is believed that after the defeat in the election of four state legislative councils, the UPA government has decided to reconsider about its decision on the issues which directly affects the common public. The high command of the ruling party thought that the reason for their defeat in the state election is mainly because of their government failed to contain the price rise. The gap between common public and UPA government has been considerably increased. To correct these failures the UPA government decides to do something to attract the voters.

SHORT ARTICLE ON IT MODERNIZATION - CBS implementation of INDIA POST PROJECT 2012

Introduction

                In the changed scenario, modernization of Post office is mandatory to give enhanced service to the costumer, by avoiding duplication of work, better staff management with cost efficiency. For those modernization following methodologies are essential to implement the IT modernization of India Post, and for every below fields, vendors are called and approved by the department of Posts, India. I write this article to the common staffs of department of posts to know easily about the future course of action of our department under IT modernization

IT MODERNIZATION IS CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING

1.   Rural ICT Hardware Provider

Providing infrastructure like hand held device, mobile transmission infrastructures to the rural sub  post offices including BOs. M/s Infosys is signed as vendor

2.  Rural ICT mobile device platform provider – Supplying mobile hand held device software to the rural POs _ M/s Infosys is signed as vendor

      3. Core System Integrator (Except Banking and PLI) – Integrating and maintaining the software and datas for Mails, staff management, Accounts and auditing M/s TCS is signed as vendor

4.       Financial System Integrator (For Banking and PLI) – Integrating and maintain the software and datas for Savings Bank operations(CBS Finacle), PLI and RPLI & ATM installations – M/s INFOSYS is signed as vendor

5.        Data centre Facility – proposed to maintain the centralized main server at PTC Mysore and back  server at Mumbai – M/s Reliance is signed as vendor

6.       Network Integrators – connecting all the post office thro network – SIFY is signed as vendor

7.    Mail office Hardware supply – Supplying required infrastructure for 15000 postmen like hand held devices and hard ware for Mail offices and TMOs _ Still no vendor is nominated

8.     Change Management – Project management units (PMUs) shall be deployed upto regional level to suggest innovative ideas to grow better and effective management to the Postal administrators. – M/s Sai is nominated for that purpose as vendor

CBS implementation

CBS(Core Banking solutions) is one of the areas for FSI, and to migrate to the CBS finacle following pre migration activities like, Database discrepancies cleaning, Circle processing centres(CPC), Signature scanning are required to the migrate the sanchay post data to the CBS finacle centralized server server. PLI/RPLI credit particulars updation are also in FSI and that’s why we are obtaining and updating the omitted credit particulars of PLI/RPLI nowadays.

Need for CBS,

1. Cost efficiency ( For every Banking deposit/withdrawal transaction Nearly Rs 45-50 cost is occurred ) After IT modernization implementation thro ATM (Rs 15-18) and by net banking we could do transactions for Rs4)

2. Improved customer service – By alternate channels like ATM, net banking, mobile banking we could serve 24*7*365 to the customers

Value add on services like, SMS alerts, eBanking, eCommerce facilities can be offered to the postal customers

3. AML/KYC

By assigning Customer Identification File No(CIF) detect multiple accounts of the depositor can be detected, opened across the india.

Avoidance of submitting kyc documents whenever open the accounts by indicating the CIF no (Customer Identification File number assigned by CBS software)

4. Electronic Payment systems like NEFT (National electronic fund transfer), RTGS(Real time gross settlement) facilities can be enabled to the customers to transfer the funds of their account to inter/intra bank beneficiaries.

Benefits to the Department

1.       Financial inclusion can be effected efficiently up to the bottom line of the people

2.       Better decision making by centralized server MIS (Management Information system)

3.       Reduction of cost and availability of man power for redeployment in marketing and other revenue generating capabilities

4.       Increased Productivity and accountability

For employees:

1.       Learn, build and enhance new skills and experiences,

2.       Reduction in Manual work and enhance productivity

3.       IT enabled services to avoid customer complaints

4.       Opportunity to work in an innovation based culture like Banking sectors

5.       Growth and strong Auditing

In FSI (Financial system integrator), for banking activities, CBS finacle software is designed by the INFOSYS, and gradually rolling out to the Pilot offices like T.Nagar HPO, Greames road P.O, Karaikkudi HPO etc.,

                After migration to CBS finacle the following important differences are there with our regular Sanchay Post software. Visit this site to read the differences

7th CPC News - Minimum wage & Pay fixation forumala for 7th CPC worked out by COC Karnataka

7th CPC News - Minimum wage & Pay fixation forumala for 7th CPC worked out by COC Karnataka

Minimum wage & Pay fixation forumala for 7th CPC worked out

Providing proper minimum wage of Rs 27000/- for CG Employees including that of GDS employees and pay fixation formula for 7th CPC worked out .

Providing proper minimum wage of Rs 27000/- for CG Employees including that of GDS employees and pay fixation formula:

The staff side of the JCM had given representation demanding Rs 10,000/- as minimum wage for Central Government Employees. The 6th CPC in its report vide para no 2.2.15 had calculated a minimum wage of Rs 5478/- today if we are calculate the minimum wage it should be more than Rs 21,000/- apart from HRA and other allowances. Hence there is three times increase in actual prices calculated by the 6th CPC and the current prices. The current wages of the CG Employees should be doubled at least including that of GDS.

The most comprehensive criteria for covering all the basic needs were evolved by the 15th Indian Labour Conference (ILC) in 1957 for fixing minimum wages. The norms are that a need-based minimum wage for a single worker should cover all the needs of a worker’s family consisting of a spouse and two children. The food requirement was to be 2,700 calories, 65 grams of protein and around 45-60 grams of fat as recommended by Dr Wallace Aykroyd for an average Indian adult of moderate activity. Dr Aykroyd pointed out that animal proteins, such as milk, eggs, fish, liver and meat, are biologically more efficient than vegetable proteins and suggested that they should form at least one-fifth of the total protein.

Dr Aykroyd worked on nutrition for nearly 30 years and was director of the Nutrition Division, Food and Agriculture Organisation, United Nations. In 1935, he was appointed Director of the Government's Nutritional Research Centre in India, situated in Coonoor in the south. The 15th ILC further resolved that clothing requirements should be based on per capita consumption of 18 yards per annum, which gives 72 yards per annum for the average worker's family. For housing, the rent corresponding to the minimum area provided under the government's industrial housing schemes was to be taken. Fuel, lighting and other items of expenditure were to constitute an additional 20% of the total minimum wage.
