UNION'S LETTER AND DIRECTORATE'S REPLY REGARDING FIXATION OF NORMS FOR DUTIES PRESCRIBED FOR THE POSTMASTERS

 

ALL INDIA POSTAL EMPLOYEES UNION GROUP ‘C’

CHQ: Dada Ghosh Bhawan, 2151/1, New Patel Road, New Delhi - 110008


Ref: P/4-4/Operations & Norm Dated – 21.02.2014

To
The Secretary
Department of Posts
Dak Bhawan, New Delhi – 110001

Sir,
Sub: - Unprovided norms and compulsory duties prescribed to the Postmasters – request for norms and relief.

At present, the postmasters and supervisors are entrusted with enormous technical tasks and duties alongwith their day today work which are not at all coming under the norms for supervisors.

Daily Checks to be carried out by a Postmaster


1. COC web application for complaints check/print/reply/transfer/updation.

2. e-Post login every hours prescribed for printing epost messages for delivery.

3. e-Mail login at frequent intervals to check/reply/circulate mails received from HO

4. Run epayment/R net/e MO client/Speed Net Communication periodically.

5. Send Account MIS to central server.

6. Reports thro email on New Accounts Opened for the day/sales report of Retail post items.

7. Clearing and updation of cheques received under epayment

8. Sending DPF files to Technology section of the circle.

9. CBS office file updation in CBS web and CBSMON file to dopmonitoring section of tech branch.

10. Daily check in MIS/emo/epayment/speednet other web applications to check transfer of office data and updation for the previous day

11. Any other daily reports prescribed by the concerned Divisions.

12. Daily Data entry is CBS site relating to SB accounts and File transfers.

Weekly / Fortnightly / Monthly duties

 
1. Submission of Annexure II, Business Development consolidated for the month with screen shots of all the supporting figures.

2. Submission of Sub Postmaster Monthly report

3. MNOP Speed Post Delivery report monthly

4. Speed Post missent consolidated report (vary from division to divisions)

5. Speed Post extension counter report (where extension counter is provided)

6. Consolidated monthly report relating to retail products sold at office

7. Updation of DB analyser and clearing to discrepancies

The above are not exhaustive and vary from region to region or Circle to circle based on the tastes of the heads. The above duties consume heavy work time of the supervisors and Postmasters and clearly justify for further augmentation of supervisory posts and Asst. Postmasters if proper time norms are fixed for these additional work.

It is therefore requested that these additional technical supervisory works should be brought under norms and uniform application in all circles and should reflect in the establishment norms. Action for sanctioning justified additional supervisory posts may also be taken.

A line in reply about the action taken is highly solicited.

Yours faithfully,

(M. Krishnan)

General Secretary

EDITORIAL - BHARTIYA POST - APRIL 2014

Lessons from our Experiences.
Postal Trade Union movement has always been in the forefront of the struggle against the anti-labour and anti-people policies of the ruling class. During the Britishraj it fought many a battle against imperialism and for the freedom of our great nation. Many Postal leaders and workers sacrificed their entire life for the nation and for the workers. Right from freedom struggle, the Postal trade union movement has been a part and parcel of the progressive forces of our country and always solidly stood with the mainstream of the working class upholding the traditions of progressive, democratic, socialist and secular forces and also for the principles enshrined in the Constitution of India. We are proud that NFPE still keep up this tradition.
After Independence we have been fighting for the cause of the working class in general and Postal employees in particular. In that saga of struggle many of our comrades lost their lives, many dismissed from service and severely punished for participating in strikes against the policies of the Government. We learn lessons from our past experiences and move forward uniting the entire postal employees including Departmental employees, Gramin Dak Sevaks and Casual, Part-time, Contingent and Contract workers. We always fought for changing the policies of the Government and are still in the battle field.
All of us are aware that unless and until we succeed in our attempt to change or defeat the neo-liberal globalisation policies of the ruling class, the future of the Central Government Employees including five lakhs postal employees will be in danger and ultimately the private sector may take over major portion of the service sector and Government functions, just as it happened in Telecom sector.
It is a fact that we have defeated the attempt of the Government to close down 9797 Post offices and about 300 RMS offices by putting up stiff resistance under the banner of Joint Council of Action. We succeeded in compelling the Government to lift the ban on recruitment and to fill up all the direct recruitment vacancies and promotional quota vacancies. But we should not forget that the policy of downsizing, outsourcing, contractorisation and privatisation is still hanging as a democles sword over our head. The draft bill for amendment to the Indian Post Office Act to grant licence to the multi-national private couriers is still kept pending and not dropped. Our demand for inclusion of Gramin Dak Sevaks under the purview of Seventh Central Pay Commission is not accepted, though the recognised GDS Union leader has signed an agreement with the Department of Posts accepting separate committee for GDS thereby admitting that GDS are not Government employees (Civil Servants). Our demand for DA merger, Interim Relief etc. are also pending. Revision of wages of casual labour is long overdue. The New Pension Scheme introduced by NDA Government and legalised by UPA Government has snatched away the right for statutory pension to those employed on or after 01-01-2004.
When it comes to the question of implementation of imperial neo-liberal globalisation policies, those supporting the capitalist class join together to protect their class interest. Our past experience has taught us that change of Government alone cannot change the plight of the working class and common people and it is the change of policies that matter. We believe that only those forces which oppose the anti-labour, anti-people neo-liberal imperialist gloablisation policies can safeguard the interest of the working class and the common people of our country. Let us strengthen those progressive, democratic and secular forces and strive hard for a better tomorrow along with the manstream of the working class.

2. All Divisional/Branch Secretaries, AIPEU Group-C


Dear Comrades,

As already mentioned in the last month’s “General Secretary’s Desk” a Special Convention and Workshop of all Circle Secretaries and Divisional/Branch Secretaries of AIPEU Group-C will be held on 2014 May 26th & 27th (Monday, Tuesday) at Shah Auditorium, New Delhi, exclusively to discuss the P-3 specific issues and for preperation of the draft memorandum of AIPEU Group-C (CHQ) to be submitted to the 7th Central Pay Commission. The draft memorandum prepared in the workshop will be placed in the website and also before the Central Working Committee of AIPEU Group-C (CHQ) to be held in August 2014 in Andhra Pradesh Circle, for final approval.

All Circle/Divisional Secretaries of AIPEU Group-C are requested to attend the convention and Workshop without fail. If any Circle/Divisional/Branch Secretary cannot attend due to unavoidable circumstances, one representative should be deputed on behalf of Divisional / Branch/ Circle Union. Limited number of special visitors will also be allowed to attend. Please book your tickets well in advance. Please convene your Divisional/Branch/Circle Working Committees/Circle Councils before coming to Delhi and discuss and finalise all P-3 specific points to be included in the 7th CPC Memorandum in a most democratic and transparent manner. Suggestions should be the outcome of collective discussion and collective wisdom. Active involvement of rank and file members may also be ensured in the process.

Delegate Fee:

As CHQ is holding the Special Convention and Workshop at New Delhi itself it is decided to fix delegate fee of Rs.700/- (Rs. Seven hundred only) per head. Food (only lunch and Tea) and accommodation (hall with floor beddings and bath room facilities) will be provided by CHQ. Delegate fee is reduced from Rs.1,000/- to Rs.700/- as the Breakfast and Dinner is not arranged by CHQ. Convention will be from 11 AM to 7 PM on both days. The rent of the AC Auditorium for two days itself comes to Rs. One Lakh Twenty Thousand (Rs.1,20,000). AC is required as May is the hottest season in Delhi. Draft memorandum prepared by CHQ will be supplied in the convention/workshop along with file.

Total Expenditure may come to Rs. 4,50,000/- (Rs. Four Lakh Fifty Thousand only) NO DELEGATE WILL BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CONVENTION/WORKSHOP WITHOUT PAYING DELEGATE FEE. THIS WILL BE STRICTLY IMPLEMENTED.

Important

All CHQ Office Bearers and Circle Secretaries who are attending the 4th April 2014 Nagpur Confederation National Convention and also the 26th & 27th May, 2014 Delhi Convention and Workshop on 7th CPC P-3 specific Memorandum are requested to bear their TA/DA from their respective Circle Unions. As the CWC is to be held in the month of August 2014 in Andhra Pradesh Circle and again in November 2014 at Jamnagar (Gujarat) in connection with the final ceremony of NFPE Diamond Jubilee Celebrations, we have to pay the TA/DA to all office bearers and Circle Secretaries (CWC members) attending the CWC. Paying TA/DA for Nagpur and Delhi conventions also will result in huge expenditure for the CHQ. All CHQ office bearers and Circle Secretaries are requested to co-operate and bear with the CHQ.

Circle/Divisional/Branch Secretaries - Your Attention Please:

As we have to devote full two days for discussion and preparation of P-3 memorandum to be submitted to 7th CPC, we will not be getting any time to discuss the pending problems of Circle/Divisional/Branch Unions. Hence there will not be any discussion on Circle/Divisional/Branch level pending issues in the Special Convention & Workshop. However the CHQ want to consolidate all pending problems of Circles/Divisions (other than Pay Commission related issues) and the General Secretary will explain the position of each case in the Special Convention/Workshop.

In order to facilitate the CHQ to consolidate and reply the position / action taken in respect of all the important pending issues in the Convention/Workshop, all Circle/Divisional/Branch Secretaries are requested to fill up the enclosed Proforma-I and send it to the CHQ on or before 30th April, 2014. Please ensure that the report is sent before the cut-off date without fail, ie. before 30-04-2014. Please fill up Proforma-II also and send it before 30-4-2014, so that CHQ can provide accommodation only for those delegates who actually want it. It is presumed that many delegates may hire hotel accommodation at their own cost.

Enrol New Members in the month of April, 2014.

In some circles, in each Division, there are employees who are not yet enrolled as members in any union (Non-members). Similarly some employees from other unions may be willing to join our Union. Further many new-recruits who joined the department are yet to be enrolled as members under check-off system (Recovery of subscription from pay-roll). All the above categories of employees are to be enrolled in the membership of AIPEU Group-C in the month of April. All Divisional/Branch Secretaries and Circle Secretaries are requested to make a special drive to collect the declaration from all non-members in April, 2014. Declaration should be submitted in the same proforma submitted at the time of membership verification. Signature of Director (SR) not required. No other change. Modified order of Directorate already cancelled and old order stands. White paper application not enough. It should be in the proforma itself. Please note.

                                                                                                           
Yours sincerely,

(M. Krishnan,)
