GDS Substitute Arrangement : GDS Committee Recommondations

Date : 20.4.2017

GDS Substitute Arrangement : GDS Committee Recommondations.


GDS Committee Recommondations : No full time Sustitute will be engaged against the resultant vacancy.

The orders issued by DoP vide letter no.   17- 103/2007-GDS/1 dated 17.12.2015, it was ordered to detach delivery duties and conveyance duties from GDSBPM and to create or restore GDSMC/MD posts in the B.O. on drafting from other places including drafting from other Circles.  It is felt this has been ordered in view of forthcoming IPPB &RICT. If that additional workload attached to GDSBPM it is an additional burden to the GDSBPM who is already working for 9 hours 14 minutes as assessed in our memorandum to the GDS Pay Committee.

The Committee has suggested combination of duties up to 89 days at a stretch on paying Rs.65 or Rs.75 per day as the case may be per working day. Though he/ she receives Rs.65 or .75 a day he has to perform the other officials duty after having worked his duties for 9 hours 14 minutes assumed by us and to go out for performing the Assistant Branch Postmaster’s work such as delivery, marketing etc.

The payment of combined duty allowance of Rs.65 and Rs.75 is also not scientific when minimum salary is taken as Rs.10,000 per month it will be Rs.400 (10,000÷25) per day. The work of the duties on  clubbing will never be reduced if one may think the work hours of combination will some what reduced as it is viewed in the case of overtime allowance to departmental employees i.e; 3 hour for full day even then the combined duty allowance to the GDS will be 400×3÷5 = 240 but not Rs.65 or Rs.75.

Combination of duties at a B.O.level is not all possible which may lead to unsolved problems besides the revenue will be drastically effected and the aim of earning more revenue from will be defeated.

Hence i) The orders issued vide letter No.17-103/2007-GDS/1 Dated 17.12.2015 delivery and conveyance duties attached to GDSBPM may bye detached.

ii) Leave Reserve GDS at sub-divisional level up to 5% may be created (or) else the present system of engagement of substitute system at B.O.level by the GDS himself/herself on the responsibility of the GDS himself/herself without intervention of higher authorities except approval may be continued.
