No. UN-BN/AIPEU-Gr.-C/ 03 - 06/2012, Dated at
Bhubaneswar the 16th June, 2012
Sub:- Irregular staff arrangement in Bhubaneswar
GPO in the absence of up-to-date Memo of Distribution of Work
In view of introduction
of premium products, other new products and service and technology driven
initiatives of the Department, the staff
members are now being entrusted
with additional duties and responsibilities to which we have no
contradiction since we all have to perform these works for the betterment of
the Department.
While the duties and responsibilities of Postal Assistant are stipulated
in various Postal Manuals and communicated through a defined and approved Memo
of Distribution of Work, Bhubaneswar GPO is functioning in
clear deviation to it. The old and outdated MDW of Bhubaneswar GPO has not at
all been revised even after introduction of premium products, other
new products and service and technology driven initiatives of the Department and
as has been brought to the notice of
this union some staff members working
in Bhubaneswar GPO are intentionally being given with additional workload
frequently at the sweet will of the administration. Without referring the MDW,
an order is seen to be released on a piece of paper most of the times and the
staff members are compelled to sign on it
with threatening of disciplinary action. In case of any objection or
reluctance due to excess workload of the original branch, the members are even
not behaved properly which is highly regretted. The workload distribution in
different branches of Bhubaneswar GPO are quite uneven. It is observed that
while some staff members are enjoying in Bhubaneswar GPO, some are left to
suffer.
Realizing the
difficulties of our members, we have brought an item for discussion in the
monthly union meeting since February, 2011 ( Item No. 4 - 02/11) with the
SSPOs, Bhubaneswar Division for revision of MDW of Bhubaneswar GPO. Since then,
the item is being discussed with the administration and every month we are
being given with a coded reply “Report from the Sr. Postmaster, Bhubaneswar GPO
is still awaited. He will be reminded.”
Thus, the silence over
a period of more than 16 months of the Sr. Postmaster, Bhubaneswar GPO in
submitting the draft MDW to the SSPOs, Bhubaneswar GPO for approval proves that
Bhubaneswar GPO administration has neither any regard for the instructions of
the SSPOs nor for the union as well which has resulted in putting a handful of
sincere, hardworking and obedient staff members into inexpressible
difficulties.
Strongly protesting
such delayed action of the Sr. Postmaster, Bhubaneswar GPO, we request your
intervention in appraising the Circle administration so that suitable direction
can be issued to the Sr. Postmaster, Bhubaneswar GPO to rise to the occasion in
redressing the staff inconveniences by submitting the draft revised MDW to
SSPOs, Bhubaneswar Division at the earliest.
The nature of action
taken may please be intimated to this union.
With greetings
Comradely yours,
( B SAMAL)

Nice. Really happy to find an article which addresses the core issue. An eye-opener for adminstration not to strech too far by imposing whimiscal desires. Poor governance is reflected at every step but it can be set right by virtue of relentles pursuaal of selfless, ethical and employee friendly policies with adminstration. Glad to find Union has come out to oppose the arbitary decession of administration. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteIt is not understood what's wrong with the Sr. Postmaster, Bhubaneswar GPO. Earlier posting was about his ignornace in S B ruling and now about administration !
ReplyDeleteThe Senior Postmaster can't be so irresponsible and should not utilize the staff members as per his sweet will. Monoploy should be discouraged at any cost.
