New
Delhi: The Seventh Pay Commission is likely to suggest linking pay with
productivity with a focus on technology, skills and incentives, a move aimed at
raising the productivity of central government employees.
The
panel is also likely to recommend that in future additional remuneration be
linked to increase in productivity.
The
Seventh Pay Commission is expected to submit its recommendations by December
and the central government asked the pay panel to look in to the issue of
raising productivity and improving the overall quality of central government
services in the country.
The
Sixth Pay Commission had also said that steps should lead to improvement in the
existing delivery mechanism by more delegation and de-layering and an emphasis
on achieving quantifiable and concrete end results. Emphasis is to be on outcome
rather than processes.
Accordingly,
the Sixth Pay Commissions had also made several recommendations to enhance
productivity and improve administration but previous UPA government failed to
implement it.
Now,
the central government advised the Seventh Pay Commission to be designated as
Pay with a clear mandate to recommend measures to improve productivity of an
employee.
The
central government also said productivity per employee can be raised through
the application of technology in public service delivery and in public assets
created.
“Raising
the skills of employees through training and capacity building also has a
positive impact on productivity. The use of appropriate technology and
associated skill development require incentives for employees to raise their
individual productivities,” a central government financial panel said.
“The
Seventh Pay Commission’s first task, therefore, would be identifying the right
mix of technology and skills for different categories of employees. The next
step would be to design suitable financial incentives linked to measurable
performance,” an officer of the financial panel said.
