DIAMOND JUBILEE OF CONFEDERATION IN ALL STATES BY THE C-O-Cs IN A
BEFITTING MANNER BY ORGANIZING AT LEAST ONE PROGRAMME BY EACH C-O-C.
Confederation
was formed in the year 1956. The idea was mooted by Com. B N Ghosh, then
Secretary General of NFPTE. There were many demands of the Central
government Employees which were of a general nature concerning all the
Central Government Employees. It was felt by Com B N Ghosh that an
organization of all Central Government Employees is required for wider
unity and struggle. As such he approached all the Unions and Federations
in the central government establishments. Railway and defense
federations did not show much interest. However other central government
employees organisations showed much enthusiasm.
A joint meeting of all the willing Unions/Federations was held at New Delhi on 16th August
1956 presided by Shri Sarangdhar Das, Member of Parliament. Detailed
discussion took place and “Confederation of Central Government Employees
& Workers” was formed. Nath Pai, Member of Parliament, was elected
as Chairman and S Madhusoodhanan of Civil Aviation was elected as
Secretary General. Rest is history. In the formation meeting on 16th August
1956 only ten organizations participated. The number of affiliates went
on increasing year by year and as on date Confederation is having 112
affiliated organizations.
All the C-O-Cs
are requested to celebrate the diamond jubilee in most befitting manner
by organizing at least one program by each C-O-C. Senior leaders may be
honored in the function.

The national
convention of workers at Mavilanka Hall, New Delhi on 30.03.2016 under
the banner of all Central Trade Unions(except BMS) and other

INDIA GENERAL STRIKE on 2nd September
2016 against the anti - people anti- labor policies of the NDA Govt.
The national Secretariat of the Confederation of Central Government
Employees and Workers call upon all its affiliated organizations and
C-O-Cs to conduct intensive campaign and preparations for ensuring
maximum participation of Central government Employees in the general
strike. All affiliated organisations are requested to issue their own
separate circulars to their lower units instructing them to participate
in the strike. Central Government Employees are the worst victims of the
neo liberal policies of the NDA Government and hence it is our duty to
make the strike a grand success.
6. GET READY FOR INDEFENITE STRIKE FROM 2016 JULY 11TH ON 7TH CPC RELATED CENTRAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOEES DEMANDS.
The National Joint Council of Action (NJCA) has decided to serve indefinite strike notice to the Govt on 9th June 2016 and to commence indefinite strike from 11th July 2016, if the Govt fails to come to a negotiated settlement on 7th CPC related issues with the JCM National Council Staff Side. In the discussion held on 1st March
2016 with the empowered committee of Secretaries headed by Cabinet
Secretary, the Government has not disclosed its mind on any of the
demands including minimum wage. Thereafter no discussion took place.
NJCA has given enough time as requested by the Government by postponing
the strike to July 11th. 7th CPC report was submitted to Govt on 19th November
2015 and almost five months are over now. The developments that are
taking place in the country shows that Modi Govt is becoming more and
more and more aggressive towards the workers and common people. Unless
we go for an indefinite strike, the Govt may not modify the retrograde
recommendations of the 7th CPC.
Confederation National Secretariat calls up on all its affiliates and
C-O-C’s to continue the campaign and prepare the rank and file
membership to go for indefinite strike from July 11th. All affiliates should serve the strike notice on June 9th to
their respective Departmental heads. Copy of the strike notice should
be sent to all lower units without fail. Branch/Units of some of the
affiliates of confederation has complained that their All India
leadership has not issued any circular or instructions to them to
participate in the strike. Without getting instructions from higher
bodies they are reluctant to participate in the strike. Hence it is once
again requested to all affiliates of Confederation that:-
(1) Clear instructions may be issued to all lower units now itself to participate in the July 11thindefinite strike.
(2) Copy of the strike notice served to the Departmental head on 9th June 2016 should be sent to all lower units
With May Day Greetings
Yours fraternally

This is in addition to e-ticketing which provides access to reservation system from the comfort of the home/office.
In addition to the provisions made in the computerised PRS and internet ticketing system to prevent misuse of reserved ticketing system, various other steps have been taken, some of which are as under: (i) Condition of carrying original proof of identity by any one passenger booked on a reserved ticket. (ii) Agents are debarred from booking tickets during first thirty minutes of opening of booking, i.e., from 0800 to 0830 hours for general booking, 1000 to 1030 hours and 1100 to 1130 hours for Tatkal booking on AC class and Non-AC class respectively.

Government hikes minimum wage for contract workers to Rs 10,000
NEW DELHI: The
minimum wage for contract workers has been increased to Rs 10,000 per
month, Union minister Bandaru Dattatreya said on Monday.
The minister of state for labour and employment informed Lok Sabha that the wage hike has been implemented based on a Supreme Court verdict.
Asserting that the government is committed towards the betterment of the working class, he said workers are being protected through all the rights.
The minister of state for labour and employment informed Lok Sabha that the wage hike has been implemented based on a Supreme Court verdict.
Asserting that the government is committed towards the betterment of the working class, he said workers are being protected through all the rights.
"Recently, we have increased minimum wage to Rs 10,000 at the national level taking into consideration the Consumer Price Index and Dearness Allowance. This was based on the verdict of the Supreme Court. We have linked this increase of minimum wage to pension and bonus," he said during Question Hour.
On April 17, Dattatreya had said the government would bring out an executive order to ensure that contract workers get a minimum wage of Rs 10,000 per month.
"It is the
endeavour of the central government to make reforms in labour laws and
to proceed from minimum wage to universal wage. Because the Opposition
is not cooperating in Parliament, we will do it through an executive
order," he had said.
"We have taken a decision to make changes to rule 25 of the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Central Rules. Every contract worker will be entitled to get Rs 10,000 per month," Dattatreya had said.
Government approves 8.7% interest on EPF for 2015-16
The
finance ministry has approved 8.7 per cent interest on PF deposits for
over 5 crore subscribers of retirement body EPFO, lower than 8.8 per
cent decided by the Central Board of Trustees (CBT).
"The (EPFO's
apex decision-making body) CBT, at its meeting held in February 2016,
has proposed an interim rate of interest at 8.8 per cent to be credited
to the accounts of Employees' Provident Fund subscribers for 2015-16.
The ministry of finance has, however, ratified an interest rate of 8.7
per cent," labour minister Bandaru Dattatreya said in a written reply to
the Lok Sabha on Monday.
This is probably the first time that the finance ministry has not given
concurrence to the rate of interest on EPF as decided by CBT, which is
headed by the labour minister.
EPFO had
provided 8.75 per cent rate of interest in 2013-14 and 2014-15, which
was higher than 8.5 per cent in 2012-13 and 8.25 per cent in 2011-12.
EPFO's
estimates, which were worked out in September, projected that the body
can easily pay 8.95 per cent rate of interest as it would leave a
surplus of Rs 100 crore.
The EPFO pays rate of return to its subscribers on the basis of returns it generates from its investments.
However,
despite the employees representatives' demand for 9 per cent rate of
interest for the fiscal, the CBT at its meeting held on February 16
decided to provide an interim interest rate of 8.8 per cent for 2015-16.
Later,
Dattatreya had assured that the Employees' Provident Fund Organization
will not revise its interim interest rate of 8.8 per cent downward for
2015-16.
"We will not
revise it (interim interest rate) downwards. The revision will be
keeping in view of the economic trend in the country, interest rates of
various schemes as well as the 7th Pay Commission," Dattatreya had said.
Asked
about the interim announcement, he had said the prevailing situations
need to be analysed and after that, CBT will again meet in future to
decide the interest rate.
