AIGETOA is demanding no external recruitment at any level above than GE-JTO/DRJAO but time bound functional promotion instead financial upgradation should be implemented in BSNL for promoting the executives to maintain the parity between similarly located PSUs so that executive of BSNL should not feel inferior. AIGETOA has proposed to give equal weightage for qualification and experience but double weightage for performance for promotion. With the proposal of AIGETOA every executive will get promotion minimum up to DGM irrespective of qualification but qualified and performing internal executives have full chance to reach up to the top of the management. Let me give the detail of proposed career progression by AIGETOA for which management had agreed but some executive association denied. AIGETOA has demanded to allot 25 marks for experience (4 Marks for each year subject to maximum 25 marks)- 25 marks for qualification (25 to BE/B. Tech.+MBA/ME/M.TECH, 23 to BE/B.Tech/MBA/MCA/CA/ICWA/CS/PGDBM, 18 to Three-year diploma and BSc, 12 to ITI/BA and equivalent, 8 marks to inter or below In Science and 50 marks for performance (Total 100 marks). Set the bench mark of 70 to 80 marks for the promotion in time limit of 4 to 6 years for promotion from one level to another level up to DGM irrespective of vacancies and after DGM promotion should be based on vacancies and suitability/compatibility of the candidates. If one could reach to the bench mark in four years he should be promoted in 4 years else in fifth or sixth year. Our proposal is not self generated but being followed in every PSUs not because they have born in PSU but because this is the best and in the interest of the company as well as executives. please comment without any prejudice as it is being closely monitored by BSNL management.

dr frnds, one possibility that other unions are not interested in this Shahu's proposal is their local interest i.e. Nokari ghar ke pass karani hai. post change means place change. so they want only money not post. so transfer policy must be followed strictly so this ghar ka funda hi khatm ho jaye.

It can be seen from the trend that in the operators environment the role of engineers is getting compact day by day. Some of the flourishing operators in India have outsourced their whole O&M to their vendors itself. Airtel was the first, followed by Vodaphone and now Idea is also expected. The BSNL is also moving slowly and steadily in that direction with the help of AMC or outsourcing. It is said that with penetration of more and more outsourcing/AMC in our network we will one day find ourselves into position where the show can run even without us. That is dependability of system on us is getting detached day by day. The evolution of NMS, CDR billing, zonal centers, regional centers etc are the steps in the direction of isolating the manpower and systems. So, ultimately everything will be done by the vendor, you or me have to just manage. The question arises is how many managers will be needed in future? Someone answer to this was, only few and they will be ITS and MT. Issues don’t take birth but they are given birth. There are certain objectives, which are above the needs and emotions of people. For me those who getting retired in the near future are really lucky but what is stored in future for the middle age executives (even young are also lucky, still they have time to choose) is an unanswered question by the management. Many people have attained sufficient wealth over the years and this factor makes their situation a little bit safe in comparison with those who feed their family solely through BSNL. So, the proposal raised here is not only about the career aspirations of executives, in fact it is actually about the future of many families. A system, which encourages the performance, actually is striving for performance. It will be this performance of employees only that is going to ensure the survival and thus aspirations of all.

Dear Friends, This Hindi poem written by Maithili Sharan Gupt is really inspirable... Kuch kaam karo, Kuch kaam karo Jag mein rah kar kuch naam karo!! Yeh janma hua kis arth aho Samjho jismein yeh vyartha na ho Kuch to upyukta karo tan ko Nar ho naa nirash karo man ko!! Sambhlo ki suyog naa jaye chala Kab vyartha hua sadupaay bhala Samjho jag ko na nira sapna Path aap prashast karo apna Akhileshwar hai avlamban ko Nar ho naa nirash karo man ko!! Jab prapta tumhein sab tatwa yahan Phir ja sakta hai satwa kahan Tum swatwa sudha ras paan karo Uthke amaratva vidhaan karo Davroop raho bhav kaanan ko Nar ho na nirash karo man ko!! Nij gaurav ka nit gyan rahe Hum bhi kuch hain ye dhyaan rahe Sab jaye abhi par maan rahe Marnottar gunjit gaan rahe Kuch ho na tajo nij saadhan ko Nar ho na nirash karo man ko!! Jai Ho BSNL....

Very nice proposal. forget about the person & association. if all executive will think selfishly about the give proposal, i think every one will find that this is benificial not only to your career but also to our organisation. so all the senior executive must give their veiw without hesitation. Do not think that this proposal is given by AIGETOA.

A GE, if a non-performer doesn't deserve any sympathy on the basis of his qualification. I have seen many GE (BSNL+DOT+ITS) who are non-performers. Thus, it can be taken as that performance is not restricted exclusively to engineers. BUT if an arts or a science graduate or an under graduate is able to perform better than the engineers in the new tech areas it is most welcome. Remember that for the success of any organization you will have to have a flat hierarchy in HR. There, you find the necessity for cluster system. The advantage of this type of system will be that effective communication will be there in the organization. The BSNL management with the introduction of Group Performance management System has taken the first step. The incentives here are monetary and remember the experience has shown that people are motivated not because of money alone. The only thing is that all the management guru’s who claim themselves to have completed their MBA’s and having years of experience in telecom should sit together and bring something that can be termed as true HR in BSNL. It is the need of hour else when people will be studying the failure of BSNL their names will come first. Management guru Tom Peter has gone so far as to advise, “ Get innovative or Get Dead”.

Thank you Mr.R.V.Madhu. But what ever be the reason I can not agree with a proposal that is discriminating executives based on educational qualification. Your words "that people with higher qualification will have higher efficiency" is totally unacceptable. There will be many many examples for the reverse. During the time of Europians there was discrimination based on colour and it was defeated by great leaders like Gandhiji and Nelson Mandela. Then there was discrimination based on caste which also was defeated by Sree Narayana Guru and others. Now a section is demanding discrimination based on educational qualification. Whatever be the reason I will never agree with a proposal that will ultimately lead to a division in the executive cadre. Hence I once again suggest, to implement functional promotion based on effeciency only.

It is one of the best plan suggested by GS, AIGETOA Sh RP Sahoo, to overcome the present on going various anamolies created in HR policy of BSNL due to different type of recruitment procedure adopted time to time in a sprit of short sightedness motivated with some individual influence on HR policies rather to the organisation as a whole. It would end the dissatisfaction attitude of executive due to bad HR policies in present scenario. Bad HR policy is the main cause of BSNL down fall day by day. It is most acceptable idea to most of the executives in BSNL and would bring BSNL back to track from present worst condition. Management must have appreciated such practical and most appropriate suggestion on HR policies.

Karanth Sir, regardless of what is happening in some isolated places, the mindset in general of the people in organisation has to change. There is an un-written rule (I don't know whether it is actually written somewhere) that JTOs can't issue Inspection Certificates (ICs) issued after completion of test by BSNL QA. I have seen one or two CGM QAs itself questioning this logic. But I have also seen some of our account officers refusing the payment to vendors becuase documents are not signed by an officer of the rank of SDE at least! Similarly there is a rule in QA that JTOs cant address letters directly to Vendors/Manufactures. Anyway I never complained regarding all these things, just becuase I realised it gives me freedom to do anything without accountability and responsibility! Regarding promotion, sie let there not be a direct promotion from TTA to SDE. We are also not seeking direct promotion from JTO to DE (by this MT). Fast track promotions are welcome, but in anyway not in current format.

Well.....there is already BSNL instruction for JTO's to work independently & may report to DE directly....We must also encourage fast track promotions to the really deserving JTO's & TTA's to the cadre of SDE...

Balachandran Sir, SDOT, Kannur SSA, Kerala Circle, It is really a pleasure to have seen you here in this thread. Thank you very much. As I just started reading your post I had a feeling that you are being a socialist, but as I read further I got to understand that you are being thoroughly professional! Congrats.

 

What you suggested should be the ideal one in any case. But any attempt to measure efficiency will be successful only if the higher officer knows the nitty-gritty of the management and measurement methodology for efficiency. To put other way the performance measurement has the greater risk of people under an unsuccessful manager will be always suffering. So in order to avoid such a situation only, weightage to educational qualification is given. Thus it assumes that people with higher qualification will have higher efficiency and gives them a cushion even if they are posted under an unsuccessful manager. It is yet to be known how 50% marks for performance can be practically obtained and whether it will be actually evaluating performance objectively. In such a circumstance giving 100% marks for performance is suicidal. I believe in BSNL your suggestion is not practical at present. However if it is practical it is most welcome.

 

As technology advances skill required changes. So organization has to always promote skill up gradation and it has to always give preference to those people with higher skills. So preference to a higher educational qualification which organization requires is always good.

 

Any way if your demand is that people who had entered DoT in yester years with educational qualification that is prescribed for outsiders at that time be given the same mark as those people who entered in BSNL now, with qualification that is required for outsiders, then I think it can be thought off.

 

Anyway, it is really pleasure to see that you don’t oppose the concept.

It is many fold of ever received response on any topic in the DB. It is great to surprise that no comment is against the proposal submitted by AIGETOA w.r.t. career progression of executives for which honourable CMD was also agreed but some unabsorbed ITS officers in the BSNL management and some association leaders did not agree with the reason best known to them. Offcourse some question has been raised in DB like: what about reservation system?, what about transparency in the performance measuring? AIGETOA has already suggested BSNL management in our earlier meetings about various issues in implementation of the proposed career progression. Regarding reservation system BSNL management can relax 5 to 10 marks in benchmark as is done in LDCE; regarding performance measuring we have already presented full transparent system as other PSUs are following. Even we have suggested BSNL management to give additional 5 to 10 marks to those executives who are working in the hard tenure stations which will not only solve the problem of staffing in these stations but also minimise the corruption in transfer and posting. BSNL management should stop thinking executives as bounded personal labour and imposing policies of their whims and fancies but they must recognise the views of executives as we are real stack holder of this company. All executives irrespective of the association are requested to post their independent comment on the said topic which will be eye opener to BSNL management.

Dear Balachandran.A.R. sir, Qualification does definitely matter as for as quality and efficiency of work is concern exactly as experience that’s why we have given equal weightage for both. As all executives having different length of experience can not be given equal marks, similarly all the executives having different qualification should not be given equal marks. In technology oriented company like BSNL people should be motivated to acquire some additional qualification to learn the basic principle and terminology of the technology advancement without compromising the performance. This proposed policy will definitely fulfil the motto. Even all the PSUs exponser their executives for higher qualification.

As AIGETOA is an assocation of Graduate Engineers, the proposal is OK for them. But what about others? In my opinion any action to divide executives on the basis qualification should be opposed. Whatever be the qualification, after getting posted as an executive, all executives are executives with the nature of duty being one and the same and all of them should be treated alike. There should not be a descrimination based on qualification. Qualification is for recruitment only. It is a very good idea that, instead of financal upgradation, functional promotion is to be implemented and I fully support it. The name of the association who is opposing this idea should be exposed. But the criteria for functional promotion should be effeciency and service only and not qualification. For measuring effeciency, we can take the BBS Card and ACR as base. We can have many examples of highly effecient executives who are less qualified. As there is already a financial upgradation, BSNL will not have any financial loss and as such this can be implemented very easily. But as stated by me earlier the JTOs should be given more responsibilities and the nature of their duties should not be that of DOT JEs and they should report directly to DEs and not to SDEs.

Then only we can survive in the industry.... and in one sentence you told that other Associations are opposing this proposal , it is very pity for BSNL, and i feel that each and every member of the other associations might not know about this proposal , otherwise they could have bring the pressure on their leaders, why because for the lost 20 to 30 years they to didn’t get any satisfaction in the department about promotion policy , any way nice propose we are all with you for implementing this... thanks

The proposal put forward by AIGETOA is indeed very good.It would benefit each and every executive of BSNL.Every executive must seriously think about this for his career progression,and if he feels this is good for his progression then he must question his parent association why they are not supporting AIGETOA's proposal? It does not matter if the leaders of other associations do not support this beacuse,leaders are not made by themselves.They are created by members.If each and every member question their parent association why they are not supporting AIGETOA's proposal when it is beneficial to them? If every executive comes forward then all associations will yield to its members.Associations are for members welfare only.They should realise this.If all associations demand this proposal to be implemented then our beloved CMD will have no other option but to implement it. The ball is in court of each and every executive.Come forward and make this happen so that we would benefit ourselves and ultimately our company before it goes into dire losses and says that it cant even pay our salaries. Time for some serious thought and action.

There have been various projects started in BSNL.But for the sake of BSNL and its growth the most important has not been started yet--- Project HR.And the suggestions given should be the main aim of Project HR . Project HR can make BSNL touch new heights and the management can see the result that after successful implementation of project HR all the ongoing project will give a positive result within a short span. Hope management starts Project HR............

Excellent idea but We have to develop performance Measurement system of an executive in bsnl. How to keep uniqueness in assessment of performance in all India level? – since 50 marks is for performance.A efficient employee may not achieve good performance in odd section due to market trend and non-coperation of his boss/team.in present system chatukar, chamche and corrupt are declared efficient by so called managers cum adminstrators.so if it is effective in good sprit ,it is excellent proposal if agreed by all groups of executives in bsnl.That’s a good sign and I hope others would appreciate this. WE SHOULD CHANGE GOVT. MIND SETUP, LEAVE OUR EGO AND LOW MIND AND WILLING TO CHANGE IN ANY ORGANISATION OR SOCIETY.BECAUSE WE ARE THE FUTURE OF DOT ABSORBEE EXECUTIVES.

Some people in over enthusiasm forget that Reservations are guided by the Constitution and no employee can question it.So upto E-4 level,provision of reservation is a must in promotion from E-1 onwards and maintaining Roster is compulsory.As per GoI instructions,there are no reservation in promotion for Group-A officers(reservation only at the time of recruitment).If this not taken care of,the proposal is bound to be struck-off by the court of law In India.I have already suggested,this proposal is a basic launching-pad and we have to build it upon by considering legal aspects also.Thanx.

Dear Sahuji, A very good proposal.But many Thing need to highlight in details our organisation is bound by Indian law of constitution some rules we have to follow What about reservation policy? How one will measure the performance? Other wise performance measure will become relative term. Because 50 marks for performance> Our cadre is basically implementing cadre so our performance depends upon management decision also. Some section are passive some are active also to decide weightage of each section and department wise is very exhaustive task so please throw some light on that also..If one will clear performance measurement aspect and resevation policy then only one can think of that propasal Beacause one cannot cross indian PSU frame all we are abide by constitution . So pl clear that point or let us start one more exhaustive discussion on that .Unless and unitil all these things are clear one cannot think.But proposal is nice some details only need to highlight and again marking scheme need to revise see ME/METCH 25 marks BE 23 But one step below Diploma 18 marks nowhere MSC status MBA and MSC are at equal status also then one step below Bsc 18 marks why difference increased by 5 marks no justification. so idea is good.But neeed some more details and studious approach thank you

Let every executives irrespective of COLOR benefited by such fruitful proposal of sahuji as such more or less every CPSU are following the same HR policy, In my opinion if in this proposal there is any thing which is against the progression of DOT recruited executives it will be worked out only if all executives come forward with their suggestion. I believe those executives who were SDE/ad hock SDE or DRJTO at the time of formation of BSNL i.e.2000 they will get their first promotion in 2004/2006 next in 2008/10 so they will be benefited with two functional promotion. They are getting financial up gradation so if BSNL provides financial up gradation with functional promotion no financial burden will be involved but executives will be more motivated and devoted to their work and company will get more output from them. But friends the management is management out of all.......so be united for further hurdles to be overcome.

Every thing in the proposal was good and will remain to be good, but I really find it difficult to understand as to why the other executive associations are not coming forward to support the move. May be the resaon is "WHO TAKES CREDIT". Yaar they still are busy saying some members in Gaziabad allegedly came back to parent association etc. etc. This all is nothing but we people giving our hands axed to Management while fighting among ourselves. Please learn something from Jet Pilots who all stood together till the last and got what they desired from Management.I fail to understand what threat other associations' leaders are fearing while they might be thinking about the right move being initiated by AIGETOA. No doubt individual member of such associations is already supporting the move but he/she can not do anything as his/her voice can not reach such avenues where it will be heard by any one.We all executives should get united together and support the right thing/move whatever the association that envisages it. We all are elder/younger brothers of a same family and we should remain so while supporting WHAT IS RIGHT FOR OUR BSNL without thinking who takes the credit.

Already we have witnessed a record profit dip of 81%. If the motivation level of BSNL executives remains same no body can save the sinking ship of BSNL. Instead of motivating the executives to work more, our management is instigating them to study more. Let us hope almighty GOD give some sense to our Management to revamp the HR system for boosting the motivation of its employees that will ultimately initiate a turnaround in BSNL profit trend and bring its past glory back.

BSNL is a PSU having totally different & unjustified HR Policies (unlike the other PSUs in India), which highely demotivate the real working cadre in BSNL. For example; in each PSU direct recruited executives are allowed to be promoted without phasing any internal exam, but not in BSNL, where, executives can be promoted only after quallifying the exam . All these unjustified & wrong HR policies of BSNL are for non-ITS cadre only. Besides this, in none of the PSU, the deputation is allowed for this much long period of appx 9 years as in BSNL.

It is also clear from the response to your post but thing which puzzles me is that why their voice is not being recognized by their leaders. IF the question is of recognition and credit, I once again repeat my sentence in earlier post that credit can never be indivdual oriented, it should and it will go to the all concerned, those for intiating it, those for supporting it and also to management for having the will and concern for implementing it.

As already time bound financial upgradation is there wef 1/10/2000, neither BSNL is going to lose any thing big financially nor the Executives gain any thing big financially. But the big plus point is the status of the employee in the society which will be stepped up and this in turn will boost the morale of the employee. It may so happen that we have to do the same work sitting in the same seat.

He may still go to the court saying that he is denied(delayed) peomotion even though he pocessed required qualification for becoming JTO) c.

But I am in real shock to see those who iniciate/participate in hate discussions are keeping mum now!!

For the growth of our beloved BSNL all executive shuold come farward and support the suggetion given by Sahoo GS AIGETOA. For any organisation its performance depend on human resource. Workforce is the most valuable asset for an organisation.Even it is more valuable than capital or equipment. To save human resource of BSNL from most wasted BSNL management should implement this structure of promotion.It will increase satisfaction level among executives and also productivity and performance of every indivisual. The leaders of other associations are hopeless so all the executive please go ahead for this excellent suggetion.

I fully agree with Mr Keshwan and mr gupta. PArivartan sansar ka niyam hai. days are gone when DOT was in monopoly, now the scenario has changed and to face this competition, employees should be highly motivated ans should stand together to face this competition. But here no one is bothered , all are thinking of competition in exam and not thinking about the competition in open world with telecom operator. And is teh scene doesn't change we will be the best to compete in any exam but will be the worst in facing the competition given by telecom operator.

Performance based Career Progression is need of Hour in BSNL.This is Necessity for survival in Competitive Market we are facing.Gone are the times of Monopoly, when motivation level of employee has ZERO impact on revenue/profitability/survival of BSNL.Demotivated employee can't bring wonders.Management have to think in lines of matching aspirations of different section of employees.By neglecting Performance BSNL is not going to survive.Nothing in BSNL is related to Performance,but to other factors like LCDE,Seniority. In such scenerio every employee will think in terms of clearing exam instead of working for Organizational Goals.So Management has to comeout with policy which will measure/reward a Performing Employee.

I fully agree with the proposal and i think its the best way for growth of any organisation. Promotion is one of the way to provide motivation to there employee. Every organisation belives in this way of motivating there employees.And as far as I know, all organisation follows this way of motivation which in result gives fruitful output for the company. But here in BSNL ,it seems that no one is bothered about the growth or fruitfulness of BSNL , thats why no one in BSNL thinks that there employees should be equally motivated so that they can give there best to company. And what I feel from my opinion that the option given is best , because it will motivate each and every employee of BSNL and they will be performing there best. Exam cannot be the way of promotion , as u cant assume that your employees will be studying for whole of there life(syllabus Mgmt, engg etc). This has been proved to be a great joke whenever I had shared this(BSNLpromotion or recruitment policy whatever u call) with some of my friends working in other organisation. So what I think beside wasting time in conducting examination, if they had invested there time in framing the best promotion policy. It would have resulted in providing motivation rather than wastage of money which is being done on conducting exams. They would have provided there employee promotion policy as suggested by Mr Shahu which in turn would have given fruitful result for company.

Dear friends only way this organisation can survive and flourish is by motivating all employees towards performance and this proposed promotion policy by AIGETOA servs this purpose. Otherwise I fear if performance oriented culture is not incorporated in BSNL there will be no point in becoming SDE(by LDCE) STS (by MT exam) and DGM. Ultimately after few more years all of us irrespective of Association (except deputationists) will be sitting with a bowl in our hands and crying for a bail out package to get at least our Basic salaries. At that time nobody will dare to ask for 9.8% DA benefit etc.etc. So this proposed promotion policy with a stress on performance and equal weightage to qualification and experiece is VITAL for survival of BSNL Long Live BSNL Puneet Goel GEJTO (9417352500)

Dear Shahu The present policy of promotion in BSNL is what was being followed in DOT i.e. Non ITS would get one promotion throughout their career, again i.e from JTO to SDE and then to adhoc DE at most. This was the wording told by our previous GS Sh Basu to Member(HRD). Any deviation from old practice is most welcome. I believe the formula given is execllent. I also appeal other associations , either support it or come with something good.

This is indeed the best promotion policy which can be offered to the employees. Suggestions for modifications, if any are most wellcome. Lets do something together to ensure our careers and grwoth of BSNL. Such type of policies always offer benefit to both the employees as well as the organisation because 'motivation to perform' is the mantra for sucess of any organisation. For employees it will reap double benefit because better performance of organisation will again provide more benefits to the employees.

Dear All, A good advice should must be accepted by all even it comes from your most dreaded opponents. But its strange that in this organization the proposal is not judge by its merit but by whom it is being proposed. Where as, in the all other setups, if its a decision on a policy with the national or common interests, all the parties follow each other irrespective of their differences. But in BSNL, it seems that the leaders of others association do no agreeing on this STANDARD FORMULA only because it has been initiated by a group, whom they oppose. Its not a good sign as they are keeping their own people in dark either on one pretext or other and harming the interests of all executives in general and of BSNL in particulars by not helping to settle the vital issues of career progression. So, I request all executives irrespective of the association or group to judge the merit of the proposal initiated by AIGETOA through its leaders Mr. R.P. Shahu & Mr N.J.P.Shiloh Rao and give their FEEDBACK through this DB. So that the management can get the feeling of a common executive directly instead of being misinform through different representatives. I pray that a better sense will prevail on us to take an impartial but good decision for the entire executives brothers & sisters and above all to this beloved organization, “BSNL”. Because I believe that no WAR CAN BE WIN with demoralized fighters. So, its very essential to uplift the moral of all BSNL family members by settling their vital issues, if we are really serious to bring back the BSNL on path of PREVIOUS GLORY. At last but not least , I offer my unconditional apology to all of you if I have hurted the sentiments of any human being in my DB, because it was never my intention to do so.

Well i also feel that just taking this proposal through DB will not yield much as hardy 10% of the total executives are participating in it and may be 20% may be distant viewer. Hence i suggest that if the above proposal is to be seriously tested for its acceptance among the executives i would again suggest to get the views of each executives about the proposal in writing officially or unofficial and preferably without any association tag on it so that we get genuine and an unbiased view.

Some additional benefit of the proposed career progression • BSNL Executive will not feel inferior to other PSU’s executives as for as status is concern moreover this will force executives to perform for better profitability of the company in turn monitory benefit of employees will improved. • Executives will be motivated for acquiring higher qualification without compromising their performance towards the company. • Hundreds of court cases will be no more on seniority issues which will minimise the legal expenditure of BSNL. • There is no expenditure on conducting examination and losses due to business of higher authorities for conducting examination/evolution and executives remain on leave for examination will be avoided. • Confrontation among executives and BSNL management will be end. • Many more I request honourable CMD, Director (HR), and all CGMs, GMs, other ITS officers and association representative to come forward with their comments without any hesitation as it is not the matter of any particular association but it is the matter of career of the executives, it is the matter of survival of BSNL, it is the matter of satisfaction of hard working executives.

A true fan of cricket will always praise the good batting of batsman, even if the batsman is of enemy country. Here I would like to request Shri N A Abraham and Mr Augustin, Mr Sudeep Kumar, Mr Vimal Kumar to come forward and say something about the proposal. Even if they have any apprehensions regarding the proposal they should come forward and open them for all. Who knows that I am immature at this age of my life to understand the true implications of proposal from the view of an old man. That’s why I request all the members of SNEA to came forward and discuss the negatives of proposal, if any. I respect the people like Shri Hari Kumar M L Ji, that in spite of the so many discussions where he & me are on the differing sides, still he is a man who has the wisdom to see every day as a new dawn. Similarly, Shri Manoj Krishnan Sir came forward to share his views, which are really appreciable. Even I expect the same from the ITS officers silently watching the discussion here. I expect them to tell me the pros and cons if any of such a performance based system. Otherwise my doubt will turn into reality that it is not the Group-D, Group-C and Group-B employees who are afraid about the system based on the performance, in fact it is the Group-A employees/citizens of this company/country who resist this type of system. We the group-B/C/D employees can give the excuses regarding performance for one reason or other, like lack of powers, lack of resources but the Group-A officers cannot give any such excuses as they have powers and sufficient resources with them. A government servant carries more responsibility on his shoulder than any other to make this country named BHARAT to grow up in all spheres. And telecommunications is the sphere entrusted to the Indian Telecom Service Officers. Have the confidence on your self that we will defeat all these tata and bata. Let us pledge that we will not let this bright star of yester years to be demolished by the opposite winds. We will and we can make this organization whose name start with BHARAT to be a true RATAN of this country. What can one understand from this silence of OTHERS? Doesn’t it means that they have nothing to say against it. Each time you resist your ego, instead of suspending a curtain, you tear down a curtain. Don’t let your children to suffer the pain you’ve experienced in your life. Lets make our Life grow brighter.

Regarding Reserved candidates a relaxation in eligibility criteria can be thought of. But in my opinion that is not required as there is a TBP in any case. So its always upto the people to get motivated and work and get promotion faster. However in both cases it requires legal scrutiny and a decision as what is best for the company.

EXCELLENT IDEA , WHICH CAN IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF COMPANY AND JOB SATISFACTION

Sunil Sudhan, SDE

Date: 21-10-2009

Regarding Manoj Krishnan sir’s questions, my opinions against a few are as follows.

 

Qualification is to be considered for all promotions in 4 or 5 or 6 years? Is it possible to consider mark for qualification in each promotion?

Qualification is to be considered for all promotions. Only with people with cut-off getting promotions initially and finally as TBP without merit for qualification. Qualification should be considered for each promotion. So that people with higher qualification having a better chance for getting promotion. That way people will be motivated.

 

Another doubt is irresopective of vaccancies up to DGM?

I think it has two sides (i) Do we have that many posts? (ii) Why can’t we give when we are giving TBP?

It requires much greater analysis of HR data. And we have to see at what stage crowding is going to come? Also we have to see as what is the maximum post we can allow at a cadre. Say there are too many eligible candidates for DGM posts and we can’t allow that many posts. A practical way may be putting a qualification bar, say degree or diploma for the time being which can be slowly raised to B.Tech or MBA or as per a roadmap. That way we can motivate the people down the line to achieve it now itself.

 

Another option for people who don’t have the desired qualification, still aspire to DGM a pass in a training similar to TBP training at BSNL training centre may be stipulated. But it should be pre-requisite for promotion rather than post-promotion. We can save a lot on resources that way on TBP training because all people need not be trained. For people having required a qualification a refresher training once in 1/2/3 year may be made compulsory.

 

For people who don’t have the required qualification and prefer not to acquire a pass in the above said training, may be retained at the same post with pay up gradation. Refresher training can be given for them also.

 

Rest of the question needs further elaborations.

We have given our best to convince the management from the month of December 2008 with this proposal. First we have submitted this proposal to Mr Batra Committee on MT then we have pursued with DIR(HR),GM(Restructuring)and BCG Finally to Our Honorable CMD. Our CMD mentioned after giving patience hearing for more than 3 hour asked us to have consensus among the other associations. We have started the negotiations but all went vain only the ego and the sense of credit prevented the other associations to proceed. Even worse after the negotiations they rampaged for Group A RR with the CMD and got it sanctioned from the BSNL management. As a result now DGM, MT, LDCE followed by court cases we all know there is no court case ends less than 20 years. If this proposal gets implemented many anomalies will be resolved since there is emphasis for the performance 50% the person works for the BSNL will be rewarded rather the person who takes leaves for the preparation of the exams. According to the proposal all the executives will be clustered from the JTO to DE, JAG, SAG,HAG like other PSU’s( All the cadres works rather supervise). We all get confirmed status and recognition secondly everyone will be motivated to work. Till date we have tried with all our best with management but now onwards everyone needs to convey the message to the management through this posting that we are for this proposal irrespective of the associations we are for the betterment of BSNL. The only objections for the management that if everyone becomes JTO to SDE then to DE who will work this is typical sarkari attitude in the era of completions everyone needs to work rather supervise on one cadre. Pls vote with Yes/NO then give your suggestions.

Yes, this proposal of AIGETOA is very excellent. And this can be possible and it should be. I don’t understand, what is the harm for implementing this? And why other associations are not supporting? They are the seniors, and can grab the promotions up to E5 (Functionally) and DGM level irrespective to the vacancies. And also to compete with the market the only corporate office at New Delhi is not sufficient, every non-executive and executive must be a part of it. This can only be possible if the proposed HR policy of AIGETOA is taken into consideration. However the management and other associations/union may do any modification for improving the proposed HR policy for making BSNL as a complete CPSE in the true sense. And if we think in a positive way all the anomalies in BSNL may be swept out by simply following the CPSE path.

On the proposal of AIGETOA the reply of management is not as simple as it appears. To find out the reason we have to look into the pros and cons of the AIGETOA proposal. First of all, first time in its history the AIGETOA has demanded something which is not exclusive for members. In fact this time the proposal of career progression includes each and every executive working in BSNL, either absorbed or BSNL recruited. There is no separate cadre demand or anything demanded exclusively for engineers only. That’s a good sign and I hope others would appreciate this. The proposal speaks about time bound career progression of executives up to a certain level and there after depending upon the vacancies. When you look at the present fate of absorbed Group-B executives who are at the verge of their retirement and are waiting for their regular promotion to STS like anything why would they refuse such type of proposal? As far as the stand of their associations is concerned they (the associations) are fighting the issue from years. Recently they have claimed to break the bottle neck with the regularization of 280 regular STS. But all the matured people know that a drop of water can serve how many thirsty people. It seems that they will have to retire dry from BSNL. The same fate will be of the younger generation head. The only problem (in management & other association view) is that it speaks about the PERFORMANCE. Do you think if an HR system based on performance if introduced will only be restricted only up to the Group-B executives? No, even the Group-A executives will also come under the preview of it. Just imagine the situation where a junior GM will be promoted over his senior just because he is performing better than him. If that happened than I can assure you that BSNL will become the world leader in the telecom business beating British & China Telecom. If the performance based HR system is introduced into BSNL than the issue of ITS absorption will also be sorted out automatically. You, I or anybody will not be bothered about anything like deputation or whatever coz we know that best of best are performing at the top. Even if some GM from NTPC wants to make a lateral entry in BSNL on the basis of his previous performance than what is the harm? We should welcome the talent with open arms. And if some GM of DoT wants to join BSNL on deputation than what is the harm, as ultimately he will be giving his most excellent to BSNL. This burning desire towards performance will ultimately take the organization to the new heights. What will we do with the non-performers then? For this let me quote the words of DIR(HR)-Vodaphone, “ If somebody doesn’t perform for a year, we transfer him to some other location, if somebody doesn’t perform for the second year we again transfer him to other location & you won’t find anybody working with us who has not performed for more than three years”. So we every reason to be happy with BSNL as we are ensured three things like any other government organization and i.e. job security, fair salary and opportunity to work at home. To ensure that whatever we are getting must continue till our retirement we should understand the concept that excellent employees expect to be well-rewarded for their contributions.

Our HR Gods do not understand the critical link between human resource and business performance. The very roots or base of a sound HR system is where the HR dept. treats every employee as a customer.For HR ,the target customer is its own employees. Turning deaf and dumb to the need of the day will only make this bond acrimonious. As we are constantly losing business , likewise we are losing excellant performers. Just think do we know the ratio of employees per HR executive?

Some consideration may be given to senior employees (Senior citizen quota) who are 58 and above. That is 5 marks for Age. Thus marks for performance shall be 45. This may help them to get a promotion at the end of their service. Since they retire within 2 years this may not much affect others.

The proposal submitted by AIGETOA is the only solution for growth of the Company together with its Employees. Otherwise everthing will end up in litigations which are symbolic of employee dis-satisfaction. The proposal requires updation of outdated (NO) HR practices ,but it seems like the policy makers are reluctant to do so. If they find it difficult than the task should be handed over to a expert consultant, rather than being delayed on the pretext of non-unanimity amongst association and unions.

Proposal is very good and very transparent but it is not accepatble to others for reasons best known to them. frankly if they have something better in mind or they want some changes in AIGETOA they should come out with modifications instead of rejecting it. Performance (not in exam but in work) based system is the need of the hour. All associations should come out with their proposal and suggestions instead of playing the blame game and mud slinging. As far as credit is concerned, this should be clear in all minds that credit can never be individual oriented. Credit will always go to the whole bunch of people who will be involved icluding the BSNL management who has to take the final call.

I feel that management is in a fix as unlike NON Executives the Executives doesnt have any recognized association based on election etc. Hence i would suggest that if Management decides to go based on the majority, it should formulate 2 or 3 options for carrier progression and get the choice of the option from each of the executives. Based on the majority preferred, the option is to be implemented.

Why JTO = J.E.in field units while JTO = Asst Manager at Corporate Office even after restructring by BCG.Management wants to divide us that's why they are creating one more association BMTA( BSNL Management Trainee Association)which will implement their ill orders & policies otherwise what is the logic behind recruiting the persons which are having two qualifications at two levels it happens in no other PSU.Why the members of other associations are not ready to support AIGETOA which is best for all the executives irrespective of from which level they have come.Management want to divide us & almost get the suucess if other associations won't come together.

AIGETOA met leader of other associations regarding this issue. But they are not agree. I think for two reasons they are not agree.1. If it is impleted then the credit go to AIGETOA. 2. Members are reluctant for transfer after promotions.

Dear Shahu, your suggestion regarding the carrer progression of executives is very much appreciable.The initiative to get the managements approval for the your proposal was a step in the right direction.But before going to the management with you would have tried to convince other associations with merits of your proposal. I hope you would have done that. No matter how thin you slice there will be two faces. I don;t think its the end of the road. And if management says because of other associations views they are not approving your proposal, I think you should blame the management than the other associations.

Sir Many DOT recruitees are having good qualification of the leval of B.E/B.Tech,many of them have comleted their M.Tech /MBA as well and are having 12+ years of experiance in the executive leval,are these people who are now a days working in the cadre of SDE are eligible to work at STS leval and above, provided management should utilize them in correct way,by giving look after charge, or with the strategy of weightage of qualification and experiance , so that a large vaccum created at the leval of STS could be filled up easily .

ME/M.Tech/MBA if obtained after entering into the BSNL then only it should be given extra weight. If anybody has carried all the above qualifications with him over & above the minimum qualification required at the time of recruitment should not be given weight. Performance should be given the top priority. Target, QoS , KPI should be the criteria to monitor the performance. GPMS by BSNL management is a good move. No direct recruitment above JTO/JAO/MARKETING /SALES/EXECUITIVES. No concept of HR system where only entry level has to be promoted to the top of organization. JTO to DGM assured in time bound manner. Cluster system or GPMS. Lateral entry at GM and above levels to attract talent from other PSU’s and private sector. Appointment of Board of Directors & CMD through open process. CGM should be CEO of circle. No need to have inter- circle transfers. Performance of circles should be judged separately.

Any measure to promote to the higher cadre based on performance is welcome. If qualification is also given due weightage, it is most welcome. While judging experience, marks should be distributed based on length of experience. All Entry qualifications (Whatever it may be) prescribed for JTO/ JAO – Direct (DOT & BSNL) should be given 23 marks and additional qualification above the entry qualification be given a mark of +2. If necessary, successful completion of an internal management course may also be prescribed.
