The Director General
Department of Posts,
Dak Bhawan, New Delhi-110001
No. CHQ/IPASP/011/2010 Dated 01.11.2010
Sub-Revision in rates of remuneration for performing duty as Invigilators in the examinations
Respected Madam,
Your goodself is well aware that Inspector, Posts cadre is having important role in each and every examination conducted by the Department either on working days or Sundays/Holidays. Generally, most of examinations are conducted on Sundays without any compensatory off to our cadre. Work related to examination is an arduous nature of duty and is assigned to one’s own duty/work. At present, IPs/ASPs engaged for examination duties are being paid honorarium of Rs.20/- for single duty and Rs.40/- for full day duty. These rates were fixed by the Department in the year 1972 and a period of more than 38 years has since been elapsed but no revision has been carried out whereas SSC/UPSC are revising these rates periodically. At present, SSC is paying Rs.250/- for single duty & Rs.300/- for full day duty and UPSC is paying Rs.350/- per day to Group B officers.
In view of above facts, it is urged that rates of remuneration may kindly be revised immediately at least at par with the rates being paid by SSC. In the meanwhile, orders may kindly be issued for grant of compensatory off to all IPs/ASPs engaged in upcoming examination for Direct Recruitment to the cadre of PA/SA scheduled to be held on 14-11-2010 throughout India.
An early positive action along with a line in reply will be highly appreciated.
With regards,
Yours sincerely,
(Roop Chand)
General Secretary
