(8th Pay Commission Update). After approving the formation of the 8th Pay Commission (Salary in 8th Pay Commission), the Pay Commission has prepared a panel (8th Pay Commission Panel) for the formation of the Pay Commission. To give maximum benefits to the employees in the Pay Commission, the Commission is incorporating new rules in the Pay Commission.
On implementation of the recommendations of the new pay commission, 50 lakh central employees and 65 lakh pensioners will get benefits in their salaries and allowances. The National Council of Joint Consultative Machinery (JCM) Staff Side has submitted its recommendations of the Terms of Reference (ToR) for the 8th Central Pay Commission (CPC). These recommendations advocate significant changes in the salary structure, allowances and benefits of government employees and pensioners.
DA and DR will be zero in the new 8th pay commission
The recommendations of the 8th Pay Commission are going to be implemented from next year. On implementation of the new pay commission, the Dearness Allowance and Dearness Relief given to the employees will become zero. Recently, the DA given to the employees is 53 percent of their basic salary (Basic Salary 8th Pay Commission). When the new pay commission comes, the DA given to the employees will be merged with their basic salary. After that DA will start again from zero.
This was the salary in the 7th Pay Commission
In the year 2016, the Central Government implemented the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission. In this Pay Commission, the Central Government had fixed the salary and pension of the employees by increasing the Fitment Factor by 2.57 percent. Recently, the minimum monthly salary for employees at level 1 was fixed at Rs 18,000 and the maximum salary at level 18 was fixed at Rs 2,50,000 per month.
Integration will happen from level 1 to 6
The Pay Commission decides the salary and DA (DA in 8th Pay Commission) and DR (DR in 8th Pay Commission) of employees from level 1 to 18. A recommendation put forward by the staff side in the new Pay Commission is the consolidation of the pay scales of government employees within level 1-6.
This suggestion will increase the salary of employees
Among the proposals of the staff side, the important proposal is to integrate the lower pay scales (integration in 8th pay commission) for equal remuneration and better career promotion. This suggestion includes integration of Level 1 and Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4, Level 5 and Level 6.
Decision will be taken in the standing committee meeting
The side staff has demanded the central government to convene a meeting of the standing committee for the formation of the 8th Pay Commission. If the government accepts this demand, then the side staff will raise the demand to include the demand for integration of Level 1 to 6 Employees before the government. If this demand of the side staff is accepted, then these proposed changes have the potential to provide significant financial relief and bring structural reforms to many government employees and pensioners in various sectors.
These employees will benefit
Level 1 employees currently get Rs 18,000 per month as basic salary. At the same time, Level 2 gets Rs 19,900. If these levels are merged into one, then the level 1 employee will benefit more. On calculating the salary hike after the 8th Pay Commission, the revised basic salary will increase to Rs 51,480 with the expected fitment factor of up to 2.86.
Similarly, if Level 3 and Level 4 are merged, then the revised salary of the employees under the merged pay level will be Rs 72,930. For Level 5 and 6 employees, the salary can reach Rs 1,01,244 based on the fitment factor of 2.86.
