OFB RESPONCE

LATEST UPDATED
SENIORITY LIST OF CHARGEMAN / T & NT AS ON 01.01.2013
|
The
Central Seniority List published as on 2008 i.e. after merger of CM II and I,
have many discrepancies in arriving one’s seniority on All India basis. The
Central Seniority List should have clear criterion in arriving combined
seniority with details of ROTA / QUOTA followed in each factory, marks /
merit list, date of publishing result and date of holding post. Also many
individuals’ Names were missing in the published Central Seniority List.
|
OFB
has intimated that a Special Task Force team including dealing staff from
factories is being made for settling discrepancies and fast processing. This
will be completed with a time period of 2 months.

REVISING OF
INTERGRADE RATIO FOR CHARGEMAN / NT FROM 70:30 TO 60:40
|
The
inter-grade ratio of 60:40 is maintained for Chargeman (T) and JWM (T).
Whereas, for Chargeman (NT) and JWM (NT) is 70:30. Because of the disparity
in the ratios of Chargeman and JWMs, technical Chargeman are getting a
quicker promotion when compared to NT Chargeman.
|
OFB
replied that the ratio is fixed studying the functional requirements of
Ordnance Factories and decided thereon and hence it shall not be considered.
|
|

|
INCREASING OF
RATIO OF JWM (NT/OTS) BASED ON STRENGTH OF OFFICE SUPERINDENTANT
|
The
strength of JWM (NT/OTS) at present has been calculated on the basis of
strength of Chargeman (NT/OTS) alone. The strength of Office Superintendent
is not being considered while calculating the strength of JWM (NT/OTS). This
affects the inter-grade ratio of 70:30 to become 86:14 presently resulting
delayed promotions.
|
OFB
agreed with the proposal of NDNGSA and intimated that they will be forwarding
a proposal to MoD for considering strength of OS for revision of strength of
JWM(NT/OTS). This will create 540 vacancies in JWM(NT/OTS)

TRANSFER POLICY
|
Mutual
Transfer cases and Forwarding of applications of Chargeman seeking transfer
to new project factories are getting denied by the factory. The case
regarding non-forwarding of application by factories for OF Korwa is taken up
as a special case.
|
Transfer
policy is being formulated by OFB and will be followed uniformly. Chairman
directed to issue instructions to all factories to forward all the
applications with comments of factory management.

PROVIDING OT
ALLOWANCE TO CM DURING DEPUTATION
|
During
deputation to Outstation for Escort duty, Running Trial Duty, Field Firing
and Exercise trials etc, CMs are required to work in uneven timings with no
Overtime Allowance. This brings disparity of Salary when at Local station.
Hence, Overtime allowance should be given to CMs during deputation to
Outstation

ENHANCING
EXEMPTION OF TRANSPORT ALLOWANCE FROM THE PURVIEW OF INCOME TAX
|
NDNGSA
asked that the Income Tax exemption for Transport Allowance should be enhanced
from Rs.800 to Rs.3200 per month plus DA thereon. At present Rs.800 is fixed
as per V CPC which was the maximum and hence it is required to enhance to
Rs.3200 which is the maximum as per VI CPC. For this, NDNGSA quoted reference
of Railway Board Recommendation to Ministry of Finance (Department of
Revenue) CBDT. Relevant papers of Railway and CBDT were handed over to
Director / IR
|
OFB

positively in consultation with Controller of Safety.
