OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject: Launching /Introduction of UPSC module in RRFAMS portal – reg.

The undersigned is directed to say that the RRFAMS portal has been in operation since 25.12.2016 for framing/amendment of Recruitment Rules by DOP&T. The proposals received on this portal are scrutinized in DOP&T through online consultation with the user ministries/departments. Once the RRs become error free, approval of DOPT is conveyed through the system. Simultaneously, the Recruitment Rules are also frozen. Under the existing system after the RRs are frozen, the Ministries/Departments send the proposals along with necessary Annexure, hierarchy chart etc. in physical file to UPSC and DoLA.

2. As a next step towards achieving automation i.e. end-to-end processing and approval of RRs by the nodal Ministries, DOP&T in consultation with UPSC has now developed a module under RRFAMS for holding consultation with UPSC. In the new system after the RRs are approved and frozen by DOPT, the same shall be transmitted to UPSC and will be visible to Administrative Ministry/Department. The new system will be in operation w.e.f 03.12.2018 in test mode and will be formally pushed into service on 25.12.2018. The comments/approval of UPSC will be conveyed through the system itself.

3. With the introduction of UPSC module, the requirement of sending proposal on physical files to UPSC after DOPT approval will be dispensed with.

4. In this regard it is also to say that some additional tabs have also been added at user end (Ministries/departments end) of the portal such as Information on Court cases, RRs of the promotional post etc for facilitating UPSC consultation. Therefore it is requested that the Administrative Ministry/Department, while initiating the proposal, may submit complete proposals by filling all the information’s sought to DOPT. Administrative Ministries/Departments are also requested to keep close watch on the RRFAMS portal regarding their proposals as the information regarding MR meeting, comments of UPSC etc will be conveyed through the RRFAMS portal w.e.f 25.12.2018.

Bank Strike on 26th December 2018 – AIBOC 11th Bipartite Settlement Meeting

ALL INDIA BANK OFFICERS’ ASSOCIATION

Circular No. 24/VII/2018

December 1, 2018

To:

ALL UNITS / STATE COMMITTEES

Comrades,

  • Fixed Pay component increased from 6% to 8%
  • Introduction of variable pay – rejected
  • Direct Action on 26.12.2018 [Wednesday] opposing the amalgamation of three Banks

After a gap of seven weeks, yesterday, one more round of talks on wage revision was held by IBA . Consequent upon the superannuation of Shri R.K.Takkar, former Chairman, Negotiating Committee, IBA, Shri Rajkiran Rai.G, MD and CEO of Union Bank of India led the IBA team comprising of Shri P.S.Jayakumar, MD and CEO, Bank of Baroda, Shri Shyam Srinivasan, MD and CEO, Federal Bank, Shri Prashant Kumar, DMD, State Bank of India, Shri Mukesh Kumar Jain, MD and CEO, OBC, Shri V.G.Kannan, CEO, IBA, Shri G.Rajkumar, Deputy CEO, IBA, Shri S.K.Kakkar, Sr.Vice President, HR & IR, Shri K.S.Chauhan , Advisor, HR & IR besides officials of HR Department. The representatives of nine constituents participated in the Negotiation.

2. Chairman, Negotiating committee, IBA while reiterating their standpoints on their earlier offer, proposed to increase the offer from 6% to 8% on payslip components. While this will be made available to all the workforce in the Industry, the variable pay of 8.2% would also made available [ie;] as per their earlier presentation, variable pay would depend upon Return on Assets [ROA] and operating profit. Vijaya Bank and Indian Bank are the two Banks governed by the condition stipulated.

3. While rejecting the offer of variable pay in toto, the representatives made an emphatic demand to improve IBA’s revised offer from 8% upwards. In the same stretch, it was also placed that the mandate should cover all seven scales in all Banks. At this point, IBA expressed that the issue of mandate is not the subject matter before this negotiating committee. One of the Officers’ organisation has opted out of the discussion at this point time. The whole exercise came to an abrupt end.

4. The meeting of the nine representatives met immediately in IBA office itself to take stock of the situation due to sudden turn of events and subsequently at MSBEF office, Fort. Com.Narendra Kotiawala, DGS, and Com.V.Ramabhadran, Secretary, Convenor, Wage revision Committee and Com.V.Viswanathan, CC member participated besides the undersigned. While the time is the essence of any advancement, it was felt the issue of full mandate and also wage revision talks to proceed on the parallel line. At the end of the meeting, the debates were completed, but with no forward movement on our approach.

5. 17th September 2018, the Government’s decision to amalgamate the three banks Vijaya, Dena and Bank of Baroda, had thrown a new challenge to the entire workforce. “Merger of Banks” is the only unimplemented agenda of Narasimham Committee I and II. Merger of Banks in 2008, 2010 and 2017 led to pains and strains in the Industry. Closure of branches, forced exit due to redeployment and closing the door for new recruitment are some of the main points on the staff side. Mergers have led to accumulation of bad loans in the Banks. The demonstrative example before us is SBI -increase bad loan portfolio.

Hence it was decided to observe “ONE DAY ALL INDIA STAY OUT STRIKE” on 26th December 2018, opposing the amalgamation of the three Banks.

Yours comradely,

S.NAGARAJAN

GENERAL SECRETARY

Dear Sir,

Sub: Non-grant of revised pension (7th CPC) to pre-2016 retirees — reg.

Ref: NFIR’s letter No. 11/35/2018 dated 08/09/2018.

*******

In view of difficulties faced for revision of pension (w.e.f. 01/01/2016 — 7th CPC) of retired Running Staff consequent upon non-reckoning of 55% add on pay element to retired Running Staff, 30% add on pay element for retired Loco Inspectors (pre-2016) and non-reckoning of ‘Charge Allowance’ granted to JA Grade Officers (worked on adhoc basis and retired) which is counted as pay for all purposes as per extant instructions, NFIR vide its letter dated 08/09/2018 requested the Railway Board to make adequate provisions in the ARPAN software to enable the Zonal Railways to redress the grievances of retired staff. Along with its communication dated 08/09/2018, Federation also enclosed copies of Western Railway and South Central Railway’s letters dated 06/07/2018 & 10/08/2018 wherein specific difficulties/problems faced by the Zonal Railways were highlighted. Federation feels disappointed that though a period of more than two months passed, neither rectification in the software ARPAN has been done nor Federation apprised of steps taken to mitigate problem.

While enclosing copy of Federation’s letter dated 08/09/2018 (together with enclosures), NFIR once again requests the Railway Board to kindly intervene to see that rectification in the software is ensured soon. Federation may please be apprised of the action taken in the matter.

DA/As above

Talks with IBA on wage revision – Meeting Minutes & Strike

Talks with IBA on wage revision – Meeting Minutes & Strike

After the last round of discussions held on 12-10-2018, there was another round of Bipartite Talks between IBA and UFBU today in Mumbai. IBA team was led by Shri Rajkiran Rai G. (MD & CEO of Union Bank of India) Chairman of the Negotiating Committee of IBA. UFBU was represented by leaders of all the nine constituent unions.

IBA’s increased offer: Picking up the thread from the discussions of the last round of discussions wherein we had urged upon the IBA to improve their offer of 6% hike in the cost of pay slip components, IBA today revised their offer and increased their offer to 8% instead of 6% offered earlier. IBA also reiterated their formula of further wage increase based on their proposal linked to annual increase in Operating Profit and on Return on Assets of the Banks. While welcoming their improved offer, we stated that differential wage increase based profits of each Bank is not acceptable to us and that the wage revision in the Banks should be uniform as has been hitherto. We also further stated that their revised offer is far below our expectations. Hence, we urged upon the IBA to further revise their offer substantially to an acceptable level. We further stated that the issue of full mandate i.e. wage revision for Officers to cover all Officers upto Scale-VII should also be resolved. IBA expressed their limitations in this regard but we insisted them to find an amicable solution to this important issue

Also Read : IBA UFBU 30th November 2018 Meeting Update

We have requested the IBA to hold further discussions at the earliest and also hold Sub Committee meeting to sort out other remaining issues raised by us in the Charter of Demands. IBA agreed to this suggestion.

UFBU MEETING: Thereafter, meeting of the UFBU was held at AIBEA Office. While taking note of the improved offer of IBA, the meeting expressed its disappointment that the revised offer is totally inadequate to meet our expectations and further noted with concern the attitude of the IBA in not coming forward to resolve the mandate issue. The meeting decided to pursue these issues vigorously.

WE OPPOSE MERGER AND AMALGAMATION OF THE 3 BANKS – ALL INDIA STRIKE ON 26-12-2018: Regarding the proposed amalgamation of Bank of Baroda, Dena

Bank and Vijaya Bank, the meeting noted that the Government and the concerned Banks were moving ahead with their decision and hence it was decided to give the call for observing All India Strike on 26th December, 2018.

Separate circular with other preparatory programmes will be issued shortly. We call upon all our constituent unions and members to start preparations for this strike action. Comrades, we are passing through challenging times and hence our unity and united approach will be highly imperative to face these challenges and attacks.”
