Sub: Amendment to IREM.

The Ministry of Railways are pleased to direct that the Indian Railway Establishment Manual, Vol-I (1989 Edition) may be amended as per Advance Correction Slips No. 35 and 36 enclosed.

Advance Correction Slip No. 35
Indian Railway Establishment Manual Vol-I
(1989 Edition)

Substitute the following for the existing para 214(c)(ii) Chapter II, Section ‘B’ of Indian Railway Establishment Manual, Vol-I, 1989:-

“The number of eligible staff called for consideration should be equal to the number of existing vacancies plus those anticipated during the next six month due to normal wastage (i.e. retirement/ superannuation), likely acceptance of requests for voluntary retirement/ resignation, the vacancies in the higher grade in the channel, the filling up of which will result in the need to make consequent appointments from the proposed select list, staff approved to go on deputation to other units, staff already empanelled for ex cadre posting, creation of additional posts already sanctioned by the competent authority and due to staff likely to go out on transfer to other Railways/ Divisions. However, in the case of promotion by trade test, the vacancies should be calculated on the basis of exiting vacancies plus those anticipated to occur during the next four months.
Note: In respect of ‘Non-selection’ posts, promotion to which is based on scrutiny of Record of Service/ Confidential Reports only, the vacancies anticipated to occur during the next one year instead of six months may be taken into account as a trial measure up to 30.06.1999″.
