Night Duty Allowance without any ceiling as per 7th CPC – BPMS

Night Duty Allowance as per 7th CPC – BPMS

The payment of Night Duty Allowance should be directly correlated with the pay of the 7th Central Pay Commission without imposing any payment limit. It must be based on the actual pay of the employee who works during the night hours, ensuring that they receive fair compensation for their time and effort. This practice would help to enhance the morale and motivation of the employees who undertake night shifts, thereby encouraging them to continue to provide their best services to the organization.

Subject: Payment of Night Duty Allowance on actual pay, without any ceiling and should be correlated with the pay of 7th CPC.
Reference: This federation’s letter of even No. Dated 06.01.2017

Respected Sir,
With due regards, your attention is invited to the Anomalies Committee meeting held on 26.12.2016 under the Chairmanship of AS(J) Shri J Rama Krishna Rao wherein we have reflected our concern that the Night Duty Allowance was being paid on the notional basic pay of 4th CPC. Later, based on the Hon’ble Supreme Court judgment NDA is revised in 6th CPC pay scale and extended to all including non-petitioners w.e.f. 01.04.2007. Subsequently, PC of Fys imposed ceiling limit to the employees of Ordnance Factories that Rs.12380/-. OFB has referred the matter to MoD to remove the ceiling but this is not yet settled.

Therefore, you are requested to take necessary action so that the payment of Night Duty Allowance in defence establishments on the revised pay of 07th CPC may be granted without any ceiling.

Thanking you.

Sincerely yours

(MUKESH SINGH)
Secretary/BPMS &
Member, JCM-II Level Council (MOD)
