Delhi: With the delay in implementation of 7th pay commission, every day the
media gets abuzz with some information on its recommendation and on the various
ways in which it can benefit crores of Central government employees.
Fresh
in the buzz is that the review committee, which was set up to study the
recommendations of the 7th pay commission is likely to propose a simpler pay
structure.
This
will make the pay band more understandable. As per media reports the review
committee has suggested that the new pay structure be a single-tier band, where
the component of the salary will not be made up in two parts as is the practice
— one is the pay band and the other being the additional grade pay.
The
government had set up the high-powered panel headed by Cabinet
Secretary P K
Sinha to process the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission which will have
bearing on the remuneration of 47 lakh central government employees and 52 lakh
pensioners.
The
government has earlier stated that implementation of new pay scales recommended
by the 7th Pay Commission is estimated to put an additional burden of Rs 1.02
lakh crore, or 0.7 percent of GDP, on the exchequer in 2016-17.
