RBE No. 177/2003: Restructuring – Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ Cadres
No.PC-III/2003/CRC/6, 09.10.2003
Sub: Restructuring of certain Group ‘C’ and ‘D’ Cadres.
The Ministry of Railways have had under review cadres of certain Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ staff in consultation with the staff side with a view to strengthening and rationalizing the staffing pattern on Railways. As a result of the review undertaken on the basis of functional, operational and administrative requirements, it has been decided with the approval of the President that the Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ categories of staff as indicated in the Annexures to this letter should be restructured in accordance with the revised percentage indicated therein. While implementing these orders the following detailed instructions should be strictly and carefully adhered to:
1. Date of effect (hereinafter referred to as cut-off date) –
This restructuring of cadres will be with reference to the sanctioned cadre strength as on the date following the date on which the cadres in the headquarters offices of new Zonal Railways/ new Divisions are closed. The benefit of restructuring will be restricted to the persons who are working in a particular cadre on the cut-off date.
2. Applicability to various cadres –
These orders will be applicable on the regular cadres (excluding surplus & supernumerary posts) of the open line establishments including Workshops and Production Units. These orders will however not be applicable to the staff of RDSO for which separate orders will be issued.
2.1 These orders will not applicable to ex-cadre and work-charged posts which will continue to be based on work of charge.
2.2 These instructions will also not applicable to the construction units and projects, where posts are generally created on work of charge basis, though those broadly be conforming to these percentage distributions.
3. Pay fixation [Rule 1313 (FR 22) R-II] –
Staff selected and posted against the additional higher grade post as the result of restructuring will have their pay fixed under Rule 1313 (FR 22)(1)(a)(1) R-II on proforma basis w.e.f. the cut-off date with the usual option for fixation as per extent rules. Actual payment based on the pay so fixed should be made from the date of taking over the charge of the higher grade post arising out of these restructuring orders. The benefits under this rule will, however, no longer be available in case of movement from lower to higher grade in the non-functional situations where there is no change in the duties as in the case of movement from Goods Guard to Sr. Goods Guard and Goods Driver to Sr. Goods Driver etc. In the case of such movement, the pay will be fixed under Rule 1313 (FR 22)(1)(a)(2) R-II. However, the benefit of fixation of pay under Rule 1313 (FR 22)(1)(a)(1) R-II will not be admissible in the cases of functional promotions such as promotions from Sr. Goods Guards to Passenger Guards and Sr. Goods Driver to Passenger Drivers etc. though in identical scale of pay.
4. Existing classification and filling up of the vacancies –
The existing classification of the posts covered by these orders as ‘selection’ and ‘non-selection’ as the case may be, remain unchanged. Action should be taken to position the employees on the basis of selection/ non-selection/ suitability/ Trade Test, as the case may be. However, the instructions contained in para 13.2 should be followed in case of placement of supervisors (erstwhile Mistries) to grade Rs.5000-8000.
5. Extent instructions for D&A/ Vigilance clearance will be applicable for effecting promotions under these orders with the reference to the cut-off date.
6. Minimum years of service in each grade –
While implementing the restructuring orders, instructions regarding minimum period of service for promotion issued from time to time should be followed. In other words, residency period prescribed for promotions to various categories should not be relaxed.
7. Basic functions duties and responsibilities –
Since the cadres as detailed in the Annexures to this letter are being restructured on functional, operational and administrative considerations, the posts being placed in higher scale of pay as a result of restructuring should include the duties and responsibilities of greater importance.
8. Adjustment of excess number of posts –
If prior to issue of these instructions the number of post existing in any grade in any particular cadre exceeds the number admissible on the revised percentage, the excess may be allowed to continue to be phased out progressively with the vacancies of the post by the existing incumbents.
9. While implementing these orders, specific instructions given in the foot-notes for the relevant categories in the enclosed Annexures should be strictly and carefully adhered to.
10. Introduction of multi-skilling – merger of –
The concept of multi-skilling is to be introduced by merging the different categories as mentioned hereunder. While the revised percentage distribution of post as indicated in the annexure to this letter should be implemented in the unified cadre based on the integrated seniority lists, the duties, responsibilities and functions being performed by the employees of the respective cadres will be combined in a phased manner. Each member of the cadre will have to be equipped with necessary skills and functions through proper training and development. The categories indicated therein will be merged by integrating the seniority of the employees working and respective grades with reference to length of non-fortuitous service in the relevant grade keeping the inter-se-seniority in the respective group intact.
10.1 SM/ASM + YM + TI –
The category of Station Master Assistant/ Station Master/ Yard Masters and Traffic Inspector should be merged into one unified cadre of SM/ ASM. The recruitment and promotion pattern as prescribed for the category of SMs/ SMs should be followed in the merged cadre. In the initial stage of merger, efforts should be made to post the employees in the categories in which they have been working. Accordingly, while the staff belonging to the erstwhile three categories will be working and enjoying the benefits of unified cadre of SMs/ ASMs, on their posting in the Yard, they will perform the duties of Yard Master retaining their designation as applicable to the category of Yard Master. Similarly, while performing the inspectorial job they will retain their designation as applicable to Traffic Inspectors. But at later stage, when they are made fully equipped to discharge all the functions hitherto being discharged by SMs/ ASMs, YMs & TIs, administration will have the flexibility to post a person as per the administrative requirement. While redefining the duties and functions, Railway may also review to rationalize the cadre keeping in view the administrative requirements.
10.2 Personal/ Welfare HOER Inspectors –
The Personal, Welfare and HOER Inspectors should be merged and a unified cadre of Personal Inspectors introduced. After merger, 50% off the post in the entry grade of the combined cadre viz. Rs.5000-8000 should be filled from amongst the optee Sr. Clerk of Personnel Department in grade Rs.4500-7000 with three years of service in the grade and remaining 50% of the posts should be filled as per the instructions contained in Board’s letter No.E(NG)-I/2002/PM4/1, dated 12.07.2002 (RBE No. 106/2002).
10.3 ESM & MSM –
The categories of Electrical Signal Maintainer (ESM) and Mechanical Signal Maintainer (MSM) should be merged and a unified cadre of Signal Maintainer introduced. The recruitment and promotion pattern as applicable to the Electric Signal Maintainer will be followed in the unified cadre of Signal Maintainers.
11. Introduction of Direct Recruitment –
The implementation of restructuring scheme in the categories of Ministerial Staff, Personal Inspectors and Depot Material Superintendent is subject to the introduction of direct recruitment in these categories.

13.2 Procedure for fitment –
The placement of the existing incumbents will be regulated as per the procedure given below:-
(a) The existing regular incumbents of the post of Supervisors (including Supervisors/ P. Way to the extent of up-gradation of posts) will be placed in grade Rs.5000-8000 without subjecting them to normal selection procedure. Their suitability shall be adjudged by following modified selection procedure according to which the selection will be based on scrutiny of service record and confidential reports only.

13.5 The up-gradation of post of Supervisor (P/Way) as indicated hereinabove should not result in creation of post of Trolleymen, in other words under no circumstances, additional posts of Trolleymen would be created.
14. Provision of reservation –
The existing instructions with regard to reservation of SC/ST wherever applicable will continue to apply.
15. Direct recruitment percentage –
Direct recruitment percentage will not be applicable to the additional post arising out of these restructuring orders as on the cut-off date. The direct recruitment percentage will apply for normal vacancies arising on or after the date following the cut-off date. Also the direct recruitment quota as on the date preceding the cut-off date will be maintained.
16. Pin-pointing of posts –
The administration should take steps to pin-point the additional posts arising out of this restructuring as per administrative requirements.
17. Refusal for promotion –
Such of the staff as had refused promotion before issue of these orders and stand debarred for promotion may be considered for promotion, in relaxation of the extent provisions as a onetime exception, if they indicate in writing that they are willing to be considered for such promotion against the vacancies existing on the cut-off date and arising due to restructuring on that date. This relaxation will not be applicable to vacancies arising after the cut-off date.
18. Matching savings –
Entire scheme of restructuring is to be a self-financing and expenditure neutral proposition. Financial implications should be worked out taking into account the mid-point of the scale of pay of the respective posts (mean of the minima and maxima of the scale), existing number of posts and revised number of posts in the grade on the basis of the revised percentage distribution of posts. After working out the financial implication, the matching savings should be effected from the category itself. Wherever it is not possible to do so from the category itself, the matching saving should be arranged from the department at the Divisional/ Zonal level. But before restructuring the cadre as per the revised percentage distribution of posts, matching saving will have to be ensured and if the Department/ Railways are not able to provide the matching saving, the particular category/ department will not be restructured. While effecting surrender of posts of equivalent financial value, the existing vacant post available in the categories on the cut-off date should be considered for the purpose of off-setting the cost of restructuring/ financial effect of restructuring. Board desire that the General Managers should ensure that the restructuring is implemented expeditiously with matching savings without any exception and difficulty. There would be no restructuring without matching saving by surrender of posts.
19. Re-organization of Zonal Railways/ Divisions –
Due to re-organization of Zonal Railways/ Divisions cadres are in a fluid situation. It may, therefore, take some time for the headquarters office of New Zones and New Divisions to stabilize. In the circumstances, new Zonal Railways are required to ensure that the staff transferred to headquarter offices of new Zonal Railways/ new Divisions are not extended the double benefit of restructuring. In case an employee has been given the benefit of restructuring on the old (parent) railway in terms of these orders, he will not be allowed the benefit of restructuring again on the headquarter offices of new Zonal Railways/ new Divisions. In other words, no Railway servant will be considered for double promotion as a result of this restructuring.
20. Annual review –
As per instructions contained in Board’s letter No.PC-III/91/FP-2, dated 08.10.2002 (RBE No. 183/2002) the annual review for grade wise percentage distribution of posts in force were to be conducted from 01.04.2003 taking into account the cadre strength as on 01.04.2003. It has now been decided that the next Annual Review will be undertaken from 01.04.2005 taking into account the cadre strength as on 01.04.2005. The Annual Reviews, wherever conducted already as per the instructions dated 08.10.2002 will not be un-done.
