AFTER A LONG BATTLE IN ASSOCIATION WITH NFPE WE HAVE REACHED THE GOAL. ORDERS ON REVISION OF WAGES OF CASUAL LABOUR/CONTINGENT EMPLOYEES FROM 1-1-2006 WERE ISSUED.
THIS VICTORY IS ANOTHER FEATHER IN THE NFPE CAP.

RED SALUTE TO NFPE

   

After the formation of union for casual labour with the support 

of  NFPE, because of  the pressure by NFPE and our union 

department appointed a committee on the issues of casual labour 

with Manojit kumar the then CPMG Assam circle as chairmen. 

After the submission of report by the committee, again a 

committee was appointed with Sri. Viswapawan pathi the then 

PMG of Hyderabad as chairman to suggest the modalities to 

implement the Assam CPMG committee report. Even though we 

are insisting to implement the DOPT order issued in July 2006 

basing on the Judgment of Honorable Supreme court in Umadevi 

Vs Government of Karnataka. Department is reluctant in issuing 

orders .

            

             The report submitted by PMG Hyderabad was sent to 

DOPT for approval which contains some modalities  to 

regularize  the casual labour and suggestions on wage revision. But 

DOPT returned the file asking the department why the orders of 

DOPT issued in July 2006 were not implemented. 
            

               At this stage Department issued orders to implement the 

DOPT orders recently. But till date these orders are not 

implemented seriously in many circles. We have  build pressure at 

circle/Division level for implementation of these  orders with the 

support of NFPE . 

            

          In the mean time our Kerala circle went to Honorable  CAT 

for revision of wages of casual labour. Recently judgment was 

delivered but kept reserved .As a protest against this abnormal 

delay and tossing the files from one department to other one day 

Dharna was organized by NFPE on 12^th august at Jantar-

Mantar  Newdelhi. All  general secretaries of NFPE participated in 

Dharna .

            

            Inspite of all these efforts the issue of regularization and 

revision of wages is not settled in R/o casual labour. Taking this 

seriously postal JCA decided to organize programme  throughout 

the country commencing with Dharna before all divisional officers 

on 24^th September 2014. In the charter of demands the issue of 

casual labour was taken as item No 2 which shows the importance 

given to it  by postal JCA.  After submitting this memorandum 

department informed to NFPE that the casual labour issue will be 

settled within one month.

            finally because of the pressure built by NFPE/POSTAL 

JCA Department came down and issued orders after receiving the 

report of chowhan committee. Unless casual labour union is 

formed with the support of  NFPE and built pressure on this issue 

seriously the issue could not have been settled in this way.

APPEAL TO ALL CIRCLE/ DIVISIONAL UNIONS 

AFFLIATED TO NFPE

even though orders are issued  the issue is not closed. In many divisions they may raise many objections. We request all the NFPE unions to be vigilent and see that these orders are implemented immediately as early as possible. If there is any problem the same may please be intimated to NFPE and our union so that the same will be pursued immediately. beware of fake unions as they will try to focus as if they got these orders and try to grab money in the name of donations. please circulate this in your local language by preparing pamphlets to casual labor immediately.
