Surplus Posts: RBE No.74/2000 – Surrender of

No.E(G)99 EC2-3, dated 18.04.2000

Sub: Surrender of Surplus Posts in Railway Workshops having CLW pattern Incentive Scheme.

1. As a result of revision in Allowed Timings, consequent to the increase in incentive hourly rates as communicated vide Railway Board’s letter No.PC-V/98/1/7/4/1, dated 21.06.1999 (RBE No.142/1999), the requirement of staff under Incentive Scheme in railway workshops would require downward revision. The Railway Board have decided that:-

(i) Surrender of all surplus posts in railway workshops as a result of revision of allowed time, may be made in recruitment grades only in Gr. ‘C’ or ‘D’ as the case may be. Correspondingly, any creation of posts in railway workshops should also be in the lowest recruitment grades till further orders.

(ii) All vacant posts rendered surplus as a result of revision of Allowed Time in terms of order dated 21.06.1999, will be surrendered without crediting the same to the vacancy bank. In other words, money value of vacant posts will not be used for creation of fresh posts.

(iii) However, the posts which are manned but surplus to requirement will be declared as special supernumerary. These posts may be used as matching surrender for creation in areas where the need for creation of additional posts due to additional assets/ increase in level of activity is independently justified subject to the condition that staff holding these special supernumerary posts be necessarily redeployed against these posts.

2.   The instructions contained in Railway Board’s letter of even number dated 19.07.1999 stand superseded.

3.   This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of Ministry of Railways.
