AIA/Circular-27/2018 Dated: 30th November 2018
Dear Comrades,
The
Central Working Committee meeting held at New Delhi on 4-5 September 2018
decided to participate in the strike action that would be decided by the
Central Trade Unions in its Convention on 28th September 2018 which,
in turn, declared 2 day strike on 8-9 January 2019 against the disastrous
policies that take away the livelihood of workers, the social security and job
security.
As we know, the New
Pension Scheme has come to stay and nearly 50% of the workforce of the day is
covered under NPS depriving them of the one of the best social security scheme
that this country had.
We know that
restoration of the defined benefit pension, i.e. old pension scheme, is only
possible when the policies pursued by the successive governments since 1991 is
paused, stopped and reversed.
In addition, the job
security of all sections of employees and workers are threatened with adoption
of fixed term employment policy by the present day government. The move of the
CAG to recruit personnel on a two year contract extendable by two years is
nothing but the introduction of this policy in IA&AD.
As we experience, after the implementation of 7 CPC, DA that
the Central Government employees get is not even a fraction of the actual price
rise on the ground. The prices go up and the employees are denied of 100%
neutralisation – even though by terminology it is a hundred percent
neutralisation.
The 12 point charter of demands upon which the Central Trade
Unions have called for the 12 day strike is:
- Containing unemployment
through concrete measures for employment generation
- Strict enforcement of all
basic labour laws without any exception or exemption and stringent punitive
measures for violation of labour laws.
- Universal social security
cover for all workers
- Minimum wages of not less
than Rs 18,000/- per month with provisions of indexation
- Assured enhanced pension
not less than Rs.3,000/- p.m. for the entire working population
- Stoppage of disinvestment
in Central/State PSUs and strategic sale
- Stoppage of
contractorisation in permanent perennial work and payment of same wage and
benefits for contract workers as regular workers for same and similar work
- Removal of all ceilings on
payment and eligibility of bonus, provident fund; increase the quantum of
gratuity.
- Compulsory registration of
trade unions within a period of 45 days from the date of submitting
application; and immediate ratification of ILO Conventions C 87 and C 98
- Stop Pro Employer Labour
Law Amendments
- No FDI in Railways,
Insurance and Defence
The mobilisation and the campaign should invariably focus on our
departmental demands such as
- implementation of cadre
restructuring after arriving at a consensus with staff side
- 5 time promotion from
entry level
- Promotion of DEOs as
Auditor/Accountant
- Promotion of Sr.
Auditor/Sr. Accountant as AAO
- Additional chances for
SAS exam

explained to the rank and file.
