In
the reference (4) cited, a meeting was held on 10.2.2011 in the Committee Hall
of the APLC Building, Hyderabad to examine the Assurance No.226 given by the
then Hon'ble Minister (Major Industries/P.E.) dealing with regularization of
contract employees working in PSUs in the State. The Committee discussed the
position of the implementation of the Assurance and also reviewed the payment
of minimum wages and extension of leaves including maternity leave to the
contract employees on par with the regular employees.
2. The Committee desired
that a meeting be held in Public Enterprises Department (PED) with the
Administrative Departments of the Government to review the position of
regularization of contract employees continuing in the PSUs for a long time and
a report be submitted to the committee. Accordingly, the Principal Secretary,
PED convened a series of meetings with the Secretaries of Administrative
Departments in the Secretariat and MDs of PSUs and other officials along with
officials of LET & F department and O/o the Commissioner of Labour and
discussed the status of regularization of contract employees working in all the
PSUs under their administrative control.
4. In the meetings held
by the Principal Secretary, PED, with the Secretaries of Administrative
departments, it was noticed that there are no Government orders stipulating
guidelines for regularization of contract employees working in PSUs in the
State. Similarly, there are no Government orders stipulating uniform service
conditions, payment of remuneration and extension of leaves during the contract
period
5. Keeping the above
position in view, a committee was proposed to be constituted with the following
scope:
i) To examine existing
orders, if any, for regularization of contract employees in all the PSUs under
the administrative control of various Govt. Departments, with uniform service
conditions, terms of payment of remuneration, extension of leaves including
maternity leave to the women employees during the contract period.
ii) To examine
existing orders, if any, for payment of minimum wages under various Central
Acts to Daily wages/NMR/Consolidated/part-time employees including those
working on outsourcing and decide uniform wages to be paid to them.
iii) To examine the
existing orders of Government for service conditions, extension of all leaves
etc. to Daily wages/NMR/Consolidated/Parttime employees and decide a uniform
policy in the matter for such employees in PSUs.
iv) Secretary, GAD (Services) as: Member
