Different Policies for Different Class of Employees

Hi All

We are in the process of setting up an inhouse call centre of around 15 people. We come under Bombay Shop & Establishment Act. Our HR policy says 36 Paid Leaves per annum and 4 months PIP against non performance with 3 months notice pay. However for these call centre executives, we would like to propose 21 leaves per annum as defined in the act and 01 month PIP with 01 months notice pay. Can somebody advice if we can adopt different policies for different class of employees.

Age of Retirement

Model standing orders are applicable to a company.

Inspite of this company superannuates workman at the age of 58 years.

In another unit of the same company age of retirement is 60 years.

Can company deviate from model standing orders,in spite of there being no clause relating to retirement in letter of appointment.

DOPT defination of EXSERVICEMAN OPEN injustice to TERRITORIAL ARMY OFFICERS

Indian Army is composed o those who have undertaken definite liability for military service, viz, combatant troops, administrative service/departments
and enrolled non-combatants-

The Army Comprises of-.
The Regular Army;
The Army Reserve
& The Territorial Army

services of Territorial army personnel in comparison to other Indian armed FORCES personnel is neither inferior nor services required by the Indian Armed Forces are superior to Territorial army

Existing definition, laid down by the Department of Personnel & Training(DOP&T), Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, which has been in vogue since 01 Jul1987,
Ex-servicemen;-
;-Who has served in any rank whether as a combatant or non- combatant in the regular Army, Navy or Air Force of the Indian Union but does not include a person who has served in the Defense Security Corps (DSC), the General Reserve Engineering Force (GREF), the Lok Sahayak Sena and the Para Military Forces

-The personnel of Territorial Army (TA) who are pension holders for continuous embodied service, persons with disability attributable to military service and gallantry award winners released on or after 15 Nov 1986 are eligible to status of ex-servicemen.


Pension & Gallantry award ;- are the compulsory criteria - for the personnel of Territorial Army to attain the status of Ex serviceman which can neither be assured Nor Guaranteed & seems practicably unfeasible abiding the Role\ service concept of Territorial ARMY


Most prominent grievance suffered by Honorably retired officers of TERRITORIAL ARMY ;- -after having served under the same pay band \ rank structure. Governed by the same ARMY Pension Rules,\ Regulation’s .Awarded Gratuity (alike Ex SSCO \ ECO) at par with All those honorably released from Indian military service constitute one class.

It is not LEGAL to single out certain persons of the same class for differential treatment. Denial of Ex-Service men status and ensuing benefits has created a class within a class amongst ALL honorably retired service personnel’s without rational basis and, therefore, becomes arbitrary and discriminatory.


As per GOI, DG E&T .ministry of LABOUR & EMPLOYMENT
service manual part1 National Employment Service Manual Part.I /Vo l.
I page 75 para-11.38

Normally two types of personnel are employed in the Territorial Army, those employed on a part-time basis , and those employed on a full-time basis on the permanent establishment. Obviously, persons falling in the first category and discharged from the Territorial Army should not be considered as Ex-Servicemen e.g - TA personnel’s of NON INFANTRY units called -Departmental TA units of Railway, IOC, ONGC, Telecommunication and General Hospital etc


TA Persons engaged on the permanent staff of the Territorial Army service for varying periods, and on discharge some of them revert to part-time employment in the Territorial Army itself. This part time employment only means a period of training, the duration of which may range from 30 to 60 days in a year. Persons *who serve on the Permanent staff for a period of Six months or more and who on discharge revert to part-time employment in the Territorial Army are to be considered as Discharged Central Government Employees.


TA persons* who are engaged on the permanent staff for a limited number of years should be considered as Discharged Central Government Employees



Exclusion from the definition of Ex-Serviceman for such TA officers* who had honorably been Released\Discharged\Retired with Gratuity alike Non pensioner SSCO \ECO is highly illegal and against the directive of. Govt of India ministry of labor & EMPLOYMENT guidelines of Director general Employment & training.

Officers in the TERRITORIAL ARMY are holding commission ,granted by the president of INDIA with designation of Rank corresponding to those of Indian commissioned officers of the regular Army , Granted Gratuity on their honorable retirement\ Discharge\Release after 05 years of aggregate embodied service / or 10 years of commissioned service alike Non pensioner SSCO\ECO

Yet are not granted EXSERVICEMAN status
ON CONTRARY

Non pensioner Short Service Commissioned Officers . are treated as Ex-servicemen, on their discharge with Gratuity after 05 year commissioned service. inclusive of their pre-commissioning training period as CADET.
Honorably retired officers of TERRITORIAL ARMY are awarded Gratuity at par with All retiree of Indian Army which constitute one class. It is not LEGAL to single out certain persons of the same class for differential treatment. Denial of Ex-Service men status and ensuing benefits has created a class within a class amongst ALL honorably retired officers without rational basis and, therefore, becomes arbitrary and discriminatory.

judiciously commissioned Officers cashiered\ court marshaled \ discharged dishonorably on disciplinary grounds from Indian Armed forces are denied of Ex-Service men status and ensuing benefits

Continuous employment of Casual Labour

Army has employed approximately 4000 individuals (in 7-8 different organisations in different states) and pays them at casual labour rates. The catch is that all these employees are employed for 25 days with a break followed by fresh employment. Many such individuals have been working in this way for over 25 years. The Army organisation does not encourage formation of any union. Most of these organisations are located in isolated regions with extreme poverty. The Laborers do not raise any demand for fear of loosing their only chance of livelihood. What is the legal view on this. I want to help these people. What should I do?
