மாநிலச் சங்கத்தின் முயற்சிக்கு மேலும் ஒரு வெற்றி !
பாதிக்கப் பட்ட GDS ஊழியர்களுக்கு இதனை தெரிவிக்கவும் !
அந்தந்த கோட்ட அதிகாரிகளை உடன் அணுகவும் !
நம்முடைய 26.3.2015 மாநிலம் தழுவிய வேலை நிறுத்தத்தின் ஒரு கோரிக்கை - 2011 முதல் தீர்க்கப்படாமல் இருக்கும், ஒய்வு பெற்ற /இறந்து போன / பதவி உயர்வு பெற்ற / பணியில் இருந்து வெளியேறிய அனைத்து GDS ஊழியர்களுக்கும் வழங்க வேண்டிய SEVERANCE AMOUNT உடனடியாக வழங்கப்பட வேண்டும் என்பதே ஆகும் !.
GDS ஊழியர்களுக்கு SDBS அறிமுகப்படுத்தப் பட்டதால், SEVERANCE AMOUNT வழங்குவதற்கான வழிகாட்டுதல் பெற PFRDA வை நாட வேண்டி இருந்தது. இது குறித்து எந்த ஒரு நிர்வாகமும் கவலை கொள்ளவில்லை.
நம்முடைய தமிழகம் தழுவிய வேலை நிறுத்தத்தின் பின்னர் நடவடிக்கை துவங்கப்பட்டது. பின்னர் இது குறித்து கடந்த 6.8.2015 அன்று நடைபெற்ற RJCM கூட்டத்தில் நம்முடைய அஞ்சல் மூன்றின் மாநிலச் செயலர் இந்தப் பிரச்சினையை வைத்து பேசினார். நம்முடைய CPMG இதன் மீது உடன் நடவடிக்கை எடுப்பதாக உறுதி அளித்தார். இதனால் பிரச்சினை இல்லாத , தேங்கிக் கிடந்த 100 பேரின் SEVERANCE தொகை வழங்கப்பட்டது.
மீதம் உள்ளவர்களின் பிரச்சினை தீர்வுக்கு வழிகாட்டு முறை தற்போது பெறப்பட்டுள்ளது . அதன் படி விரைவில் தேங்கிக் கிடக்கும் அனைத்து CASE களும் SETTLE செய்யப் படும் என்று உறுதி அளிக்கப் பட்டுள்ளது.

Divisions have to issue sanctions for settlement of
severance amount accrued against the discharged/ promoted/
resigned/voluntarily retired/ expired GDS and instruct the DDOs to draw NIL
bills.
How the amount is proposed to be paid to the concerned GDS ?
|
a) On submission of Nil bills by the
DDOs for severance amount ,the amount shall be uploaded into the CRA system
against PRANs of respective GDS.
b)
The
funds for such uploads shall be remitted to the Trustee bank by this office as
being followed in monthly contribution uploads.
c)
All
claim forms submitted (in Form-501,502 and 503 ) along with the KYC documents
by the GDS through the NL-CCs shall be
forwarded to the NSDL for further
processing.
d)
On
getting the approval from the NPS trust, the Trustee bank shall transfer the
entitled amount to the subscribers bank accounts after apportioning the
amount for investments in annuities as per the rules extant.
Hence ,No direct
cash payment should be made by the DDOs under any circumstance

How the sanctions proposed to be issued by the Divisions should be ?
|
Sanctions
proposed to be issued by the Divisional Heads for settlement of severance for
SDBS subscribers is unique in way that
while all other payments sanctions
would normally read as “
sanction is accorded for the payment
of …………” followed with cash
payments where as the proposed
sanction for severance amount shall
read as “ sanction is accorded for drawal of Nil
bill for the following GDS …………” and does not involve any cash payment by the DDO.
In
addition,the
proposed sanction for settlement of severance amount for GDS enrolled under
SDBS would have an explicit alert to
the DDOs as “No cash payment should be made from this sanction” besides
stating that “No severance amount
has been authorised /paid for those GDS so far” to whom the sanction is being issued.

For
settling the severance amount as per severance amount , sanctions are being
issued by the Divisions quoting the relevant ruling provisions.
What
ruling provisions have to be quoted in
the proposed sanctions for settlement of severance amount to the GDS enrolled
under SDBS on their exit ?
|
All
decisions on SDBS are arrived only on
the basis of the Directorate orders No.6-11/ 2009-PE.II dated 1.4.2011.
Severance
amount accrued upto 31.3.2011 for the
GDS enrolled under SDBS who were subsequently promoted should be
settled as per Para- 5 of the
Directorate orders ibid while the same has to be settled to all
other exit cases as per Para-27 (b) of the Directorate orders ibid .

Is
it enough to submit severance amount calculation sheets only for those GDS
whose claim papers have already been sent to the GM’s office ?
|
Severance
amount calculation sheets should be submitted for all exit cases as two lists one for those exit cases from 1.4.2011 to 30.11.2015 and
another list for those GDS who
are going to be discharged from 1.12.2015 to 31.3.2016 without
any linkage to the submission of claim forms by the GDS .
Hence
all Divisional Heads should issue sanctions for all exit cases without
waiting for the submission of claim forms by the GDS.

It
was instructed to issue sanctions and prepare Nil bills 3 months in advance
before the actual discharge of the
GDS. Does this 3 months mean
3 calendar months or 3 months before the
actual date of discharge
|
It
may be reckoned as 3 months before the actual date of discharge.
Since
the CRA system does not accept any upload after the date of discharge of the
GDS,the Directorate has arranged for one time acceptance of severance uploads
against all past discharged GDS besides instructing to stop drawal and upload of contributions for the last
three months preceding the date of discharge,the Divisional Heads are
advised to initiate the proceedings to issue sanctions much before that so as
the DDOs draw Nil bill and submit to this office 3 months in advance before
the date of discharge of the GDS.
The
modalities for the payment of the amount equivalent to the Govt.contributions for the last 3 months preceding the date of
discharge shall be intimated on
receipt of further orders from the Directorate in this regard.

Are
the promoted/Resigned/ voluntarily retired/nominees of expired GDS who have
completed only 10 years of service or less
eligible for severance amount ?
|
As
per para- 3 (a) (iv) (1) and (iv) (2)
of the Directorate orders
No.6-11/ 2009-PE.II dated 1.4.2011,severance
amount has to be calculated for every completed year and month from the
date of commencement of continuous of regular engagement till the time of
enrolment under SDBS that is upto 31.3.2011 or 30.9.2013 depending upon the
date of enrolment of the GDS under SDBS.
The minimum/ maximum ceiling limit of time/
amount applicable for the
severance amount scheme can not be extended for SDBS.
Hence
all GDS enrolled under SDBS who have
been promoted/resigned/voluntarily retired/expired after 1.4.2011 are
entitled for severance amount in proportion to the completed period of
service as per the extant orders.

How
to calculate the severance amount from 1.4.2011 onwards ?
|
It
may be noted that SDBS is a replacement scheme for the existing severance
amount scheme and drawal and upload of monthly Govt.contributions is
equivalent to the payment of severance
amount to the GDS on a month to month basis .
All
GDS who have been regularly appointed and enrolled under SDBS on 1.4.2011( on
completion 1 year of regular service ) are eligible for severance amount upto
31.3.2011 only.
Those
GDS who were regularly appointed
before 1.1.2011 ,who have not opted for enrolment on 1.4.2011 but opted later for enrolment
from 1.10.2013 under SDBS following
one more opportunity given by the
Department are eligible for
severance amount upto 30.9.2013
only.
Those
GDS who were regularly appointed on
or after 1.1.2011 are not eligible for
any severance amount.

Whether
the names of those GDS who are put-off
duty now can be included in the severance amount calculation sheets in case their date of discharge is nearing
in three months ?
|
Yes,
the names of those GDS who are put-off duty now can be included in the
severance amount calculation sheets in
case their date of discharge is nearing in three months .
In
case an administrative decision is taken to remove such GDS,the entire
accumulations in SDBS PRAs including severance amount can be refunded into
the Govt. account.
Action
may be taken to speed up the administrative decision on such pending put-off
duty cases under intimation to this office .

Are the
removed GDS eligible for any
severance amount ? and can the names
of such removed GDS also be included in the sanction ?
|
No. The removed GDS are not
eligible for any severance amount.The names of such removed GDS should
not be included in the sanction.
The
list of removed GDS has been called for by this office so as to deactivate
their PRANs after getting the refund
of entire accumulations in their SDBS PRAs .
