The 7th pay commission projected pay scale is
worked out based on the comparative rise in the pay scales from 1st pay
commission to 6th Pay commission.
Being a
government servant one can witness a considerable pay hike at least twice or
thrice of his/her entire service period. Because, other than promotion, only
the pay commission recommendation will give them considerable pay hike. But it
takes place once in ten years. Now a days a government employee can render service 20 or 30 years only due to non availability of employment
opportunity in government service below the age of 25. So
there is no need to be get annoyed by hearing the voice for seventh pay
commission from central government employees. Because constituting next pay
commission is for nothing but to review the salary of the govt. servants with
the current economical condition of the country.
How the pay of a
govt. employee had been fixed at the beginning of the Independence India.
Till now there
are six pay commission had been constituted to review and recommend pay
structure of central government employees.
All the six pay commissions have taken many aspects
into consideration to prescribe the pay structure for government servants.
In the first pay commission the
concept of ‘living wage’ was adopted.
In second pay commission it had been
reiterated that the pay structure and working condition to be crafted
in a way so as to ensure the effective functioning of government mechanism.
The third pay commission adopted the
concept of ‘need based wage’
The Fourth CPC had recommended the
government to constitute permanent machinery to undertake periodical review of
pay and allowances of Central Government employees, but which got never
implemented.
In Fifth pay commission all
federations demanded that the pay scale should be at par with the public sector. But the pay
commission didn’t accept this and told that the demand for parity with the Public
Sector was however difficult to concede as it felt that the Job content and
condition of service in the government and pulic sector not necessarily the
same. There were essential differences between the two sectors.
The Sixth Central Pay Commission, claimed
that it had not only tried to evolve a proper pay package for the Government
employees but also to make recommendations rationalizing the governmental
structure with a view to improve the delivery mechanisms for providing better
services to the common man
What about seventh
pay commission?
Generally every pay commission, before recommending
a pay structure, it used to analyze all the aspects including the economic
situation of the country, financial resources of the government, comparison
with the public sector, private sector and state government pay structure
etc.
But when we come across all the recommendations of
six pay commissions, we observed an interesting factor which is common to all
the pay commission recommendations, particularly in the matter of percentage of
increase in the pay. Average 3 times increase in the pay was recommended by
each pay commission and it was accepted by government and implemented.
Obviously it is simple thing, we can say it a
mathematical coincidence that we have in common in all previous pay commission,
but we cannot neglect this. Because it was there, every time it is noticed that
the revised pay was approximately three times higher than its pre revised pay.
If next pay commission prefer to continue the same
running pay band and grade pay system for seventh pay commission also, the pay
structure may be like the following projected figures given below, using common
multiplying factor ‘3’. The Following is only the projected figure using common
multiplying factor ‘3’
