Leave salary to Running Staff after 7th CPC Implementation – Railway Board

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS
(Railway Board)

No.E(P&A)II/2017/RS-22

New Delhi, dated 31.01.2019

The General Secretary
NFIR
3, Chelmsford Road,
New Delhi-110055

Sir,

Sub :- Payment of leave salary to Running staff after implementation of 7th CPC recommendations.

The undersigned is directed to refer to NFIR’s letter No. IV/NFIR/7th CPC (Imp)/Allowance/2016/Part II, dated 12.01.2019.

2. The matter has been examined in light of the extant provisions on the subject and it is stated that rules have not been modified vide Board’s letter dt. 28.12.2018 (RBE No 204/2018). The issuance of this letter was necessitated due to the fact that some of the Railways were giving Leave Salary on the basic pay in the 6th CPC pay structure even after implementation of the 7th CPC pay structure. Therefore, it may be seen that the letter dated 28.12.2018 only clarifies that the pay element will be reckoned for calculation of Leave Salary of the Running Staff on the revised basic pay in the 7th CPC pay structure. The rules regarding Leave Salary of the Running Staff remains the same.

3. GS/ FIR may please appreciate the above position.

Yours faithfully,

for Secretary / Railway Board

Ref: (i) Railway Board’s letter No.E(P&A)II-2017/BDA-1 dated 30/08/2017 (RBE No.106/2017).
(ii) NFIR’s letter No.I/5(g)/Part V dated 11/04/2018.
(iii) Railway Board’s letter No.E(P&A)II-2017/BDA-1 dated 14/09/2018 (RBE No.138/2018).
(iv) NFIR’s letter No.1/5(g)/Pt.V dated 22/09/2018.

Vide letter dated 22/09/2018 Federation had requested the Railway Board to issue modified instructions for payment of Breakdown Allowance to the staff with Grade Pay 2000 who have been denied the same on the basis of their higher Grade Pay.

In this connection, NFIR reiterates that the Break Down Allowance is granted to the Technical and other safety category staff as compensatory Allowance as they are expected to perform extraordinary duties, therefore they should be granted this Allowance based on the pay actually drawn by them without any condition/restriction.

While enclosing copy of letter dated 22/09/2018, NFIR once again requests the Railway Board to consider the points brought out by the Federation and issue instructions allowing enhanced rate of Break Down Allowance to those staff with GP 2000 (6th CPC)/Pay Level 3.
