POSTMASTER CADRE REVIEW PROPOSAL

DEAR POSTMASTER GRADE FRIENDS,

The points gathered from the meeting held on 29.05.2012 about Postmaster cadre review proposal

1 The Department has unilaterally introduced Postmaster’s Cadre vide its No. 4-17/2008-SPB II dt. 22.11.2010 by carving out 2097 LSG posts, 511 HSG II posts and 495 HSG I posts out of 5695 LSG posts, 1077 HSG II & 1176 HSG I posts. The staff side was not in favour for formation of separate cadre since it will create a division among the existing supervisors and also the concept of supervisors to know all the nature of work is being shrinking due to separate formation. However, the Postmaster cadre is being implemented as a separate hierarchical cadre.

Proposal for Cadre Review in respect of Group B (Non Gazetted) & Group ‘C’ Cadre in operative side of Postal Department
