GS AIGETOA writes to the Chairman, Committee for HR Reforms BSNL emphasizing on the urgent need for Urgent need for incorporating New Promotion Policy in BSNL as the existing BSNL Management Service Recruitment Rules (MSRR) and promotion policy have unfortunately failed to achieve the desired objective of a proper internal managerial hierarchy and a sustainable succession plan in BSNL.
GS AIGETOA has highlighted that the existing BSNL Management Service Recruitment Rules (MSRR) and promotion policy have unfortunately failed to achieve the objective of creating a proper internal managerial hierarchy and a sustainable succession plan in BSNL. Despite the availability of experienced and qualified internal executives in BSNL, career progression has remained severely restricted, with a large number of executives receiving little or no meaningful progression over prolonged periods.
The present career progression framework in BSNL was never designed to ensure smooth and predictable career progression, while provisions permitting lateral recruitment at AGM/DGM and other higher levels have further disrupted the natural internal managerial pipeline. The Committee submission by AIGETOA records the resulting stagnation, including substantial vacancies at managerial levels and the non-annual conduct of DPCs/Limited Internal Examinations.
AIGETOA therefore has requested the Hon’ble Chairman and the Committee to urgently finalize and incorporate either of the proposed promotion mechanisms, preferably with necessary safeguards for all cadres/streams and complete the promotions of all the eligible executives in a time-bound manner.
