Sub: Incentive Scheme for the employees of Ordnance Factories

         Organisation –Reg.

        Ref. no.-OFB letter No.754/Per/Policy dated-27.01.2015

R/Sir,

        Reference Cited, The Central Executive Committee of this Association appreciated the move taken by OF Board in the Incentive scheme which is really improve the morality of the employees those are not getting allowances like OTA, Piece work profit but directly and indirectly involved the achieving of the production target and other activities of the Organisation. All the activities of our great Government Industrial Organisation including welfare, administration, and social responsibility are very important to prove our identity in the competitive world. Therefore each individual employee’s unique contribution should be given importance for overall growth of this organisation. This Association suggests following for your kind consideration please.

          Sir, Group B Gazetted Officers are the most experienced Cadre in the Organisation, those who used to take the whole responsibility of Safety, Quality, Productivity and administration of each section has not been awarded in the organisation. It is deeply regretted that this cadre was totally neglected after implementation of 6^th CPC. After implementation of 6^th CPC, all the cadres were benefitted in Ordnance factories Organisation except Group B Gazetted cadre. Most of the General Managers as well as top Official of Ordnance Factory Board are usually expressing the deprived position of this cadre in many forums, but suitable action has not been initiated till date. The monthly salary of the Group B Gazetted Officers became less as compared to their subordinate employees because of removal of Allowances like OTA, NDA, and Bonus. As a first step, our Organization has asked suggestion from this Association regarding incentive Scheme which is a healthy and welcoming trend.

     Industrial employees of production section are granted incentive in terms of piece work profit where as Industrial employees of maintenance sections were granted incentives. Other employees in the Quality as well as administration may be extended the same scheme. Our Association suggests incentive scheme for all the employees of the ordnance factory including group Agazetted officer. The proposed Incentive for cadres those were not covered under incentive scheme is suggested as follows.

Cadre	Production section	Maintenance section	QC,EO,PV,ST, Safety, Admin. And other Section
IES	As per present piece work profit for piece worker	As per present incentive Allowance for Maintenance worker.	Same incentive percentage of maintenance worker.
NGO’s	Same percentage of piece work profit	Same percentage of incentive Allowance	Same incentive percentage of maintenance worker
NIE’s	Same percentage of piece work profit	Same percentage of incentive Allowance	Same incentive percentage of maintenance worker
Group B GO’s	Same percentage of piece work profit	Same percentage of Incentive of Maintenance Worker.	Same incentive percentage of maintenance worker
Group A Cadre (AWM,WM,DGM)	50% of piece work profit	50% of incentive Allowance	50% incentive percentage of maintenance worker
Group A Cadre JAG to SAG	25%  incentive percentage of maintenance worker
Group A Cadre HAG and DGOF	10% of the average of the maintenance worker incentive of their group of factories

     Employees of OFILs, NADP and OFB may be considered for the 10% of the average Incentive of maintenance workers of whole Ordnance factories along with their present allowances.

 In view of the above, it is requested to kindly implement Incentive Scheme to Group’B’  and Group’A’ Gazetted Officers those are directly and indirectly involve in Process of Production in Ordnance Factories. 

       Thanking you,

                                                                                   Yours faithfully,

REPRESENTATION ON MTECH COURSE FOR JWMs

To

The DGOF & Chairman

Ordnance Factory Board,

10-A, S.K. Bose Road,

Sub: Nomination for M.TechProgrammes for July 2015 at defence Institute of Advanced Technology(DIAT), Pune.

Ref:  COMNET Circular No. 05/7/2014- Per/HRD Dt 02.02.2015.

With reference to above, it is submitted that the circular No. 12/05/2013-A/HRD(VOL-I) Dt 06.03.2014 enclosed in the circular at reference stipulates that the candidate should be an IOFS officer for Nomination for M.TechProgrammes for July 2015 at defence Institute of Advanced Technology(DIAT), Pune.

 It is pertinent to mention that the offered courses are technical in nature & as per the eligibility criteria of DIAT the sponsored  candidate must posses a Bachelor’s Degree in concerned  field of Engg.   with 55% marks. It should be appreciated that most of technical work in Ordnance factories is being dealt by either JWMs or by Charge man. It is also pertinent to mention that the essential qualification of Direct Recruited JWMs is technical Degree in concerned field of Engg. Under such circumstances it is requested to consider candidature of eligible JWMs also for the above referred course. Ordnance factory organization will be highly benefited if JWMs are sponsored for such courses. It is not understood why this benefit has only been limeted to IOFS officers. Under the present circumstances of competitive market such courses are essential for JWM cadre as well. There are several young, talented & eligible JWMs (both promoted & direct recruited), it is  up  to  OFB  how  it utilizes this waste pool of talent. 

There  is  a perception in this organisation that there is only one privileged Group i.e. Group A, which enjoys these benefits, however organization has not been benefited by such courses till date. 

It is therefore requested to consider the eligible JWMs for higher technical courses & arrange for necessary amendment in the circular at reference for the same so that the Organization gets  benefited.

With Regards,

                                                                                     Yours Sincerely.
