Dear Postmaster,
This gives pleasure to publish the report on the get together programme we arranged on 19th February 2012 in Mumbai....
THE POSTMASTERS FROM DIFFERENT REGIONS WERE PRESENT ..........YOU KNOW THERE IS IMMENSE PLEASURE IN SHARING THE THOUGHTS.........THE EXPERIENCE AND KNOWING THE TRUTH THAT ALL ARE SAILING IN SAME BOAT..... DISCUSSED THE FOLLOWING IDENTICAL ISSUES SUCH AS :
1.Withdrawal of staff from the PM grade designated office when the Postmaster Grade Official joins as a Postmaster.
2.Increased work expectations from the Postmaster Grade Officials in comparing with other General Line Postmasters.
3.Provision of untrained /inefficiently trained staff at Postmaster Grade Office
4.Non provision of ASPM at counter when the office is working on the spilt hours.
5.No proper implementation of the RR of the Postmaster Cadre.
6.Demand on the Grade Pay from Rs 2800/- to Rs.4200/- for the Postmaster Grade I and similar elevation of grade Pay to other PM Grades as per the existing GP of the IP/ASPs.
7.Peer pressures at work place from the colleagues, virtual seniors.........
All the above issues are common for all Postmaster Cadre officials and that are to be taken up with the higher authorities.......but how? These issues are Very Unique in nature and no one but the Postmaster Cadre Officials can only discuss the matter as they are isolated in their office and they are facing the difficulties on daily basis.......they have to take decisions and implementation on the spot to save his/her office, the staff attached with him and to guard himself from all the sources as he is to pass nearly 30 years of remaining service smoothly.
It is decided to maintain cordial relationship with the other Service Unions and form one unique association for the Post master Cadre officials in the Circle level and will be joint with the centrally formed association in All India level to take up our own issues with the Administration.........
That’s all from the desk of POSTMASTER MAHARASHTRA, expecting co operation from all sources..........
Thank you...
It is true that any separation will make us weaker. We are in favour of unity which is our strength.But at the same time there are some demands from our union for one time measuremnt in promotion to HSG-I for those officials who are recently promoted as HSG-II. And after promoting them as HSG-I they will first be considered for Postmaster Grade-III by inviting them to opt for Postmaster Cadre.At the same time the PM Grade-II officials who have been previously promoted as HSG-II in the years during 2008-2010 will become junior to those HSG-II Officials who will opt for PM Grade-III after one time measurement even though they have not opted for PM Cadre in the year 2011 when they have been given two chances to opt for .Will this not be a clear injustice for the PM Cadre Officials who are going to complete their tenure and bearing the challangin responsiblities of Post Master since last 4 years? Please try to find out the answer. This is the matter of injustice which must not be acceptable.
ReplyDeleteDear M K Sharma Sir,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I should Thank for your interest in PM grade website.
In recruitment rules there is a clear statement that one time option offer will be encouraged to PM Grade I and II. And it was finalized during 2011 itself. So I think there is no provision to call for the same again as per rules in force.
If it is further option called from general line officials by the compulsion of trade unions, then as you told it will be a clear injustice to the PM Grade officials.
We all should join our hands and representation should be forwarded to the concerned circle offices by quoting the recruitment rules, even after no remedies are received from CO then, when all other remedies are exhausted we should seek the Honorable court of Law(C.A.T) for the Justice
Dear sir,
ReplyDeleteThanks for response towards my comments. At present it is necessary for all Postmaster Grade Officers of the department to make communications among each other by means of phone calls and internet to discuss our experiences and problems. This will be helpfull to improve ourselves.
