TS PRC 2021 to Contract and outsourcing employees:​


Contract and outsourcing employees numbering about 1,00,000 are working in the Govt. It is necessary to provide them proper wages/remuneration/ compensation so that they have a respectable livelihood and to live with dignity. The Government have issued GOs periodically enhancing their remuneration. The latest orders vide G.O.Ms.No.14, Finance (HRM-I) Department, dated 19.02.2016 grouped the employees and fixed their remunerations as follow.

Recruitment: The Government is engaging qualified youth for various jobs indicated in above through contract and outsourcing. This practice is going on for more than two decades. The Commission proposes the following: (1) Govt. may notify the number of persons required for various categories of posts with the outsourcing agencies. The agencies have to maintain a list of persons in a serial order like in the employment exchanges and nominate them for a common test for taking either on contract or on outsourcing basis.

Outsourcing Agency can do preliminary scrutiny on aspects like age, qualifications, job skills, etc. before they nominate the names which can be in the ratio of 1:3. Govt. may organize certain tests for such persons and finalize the list of candidates to be taken in various departments. The tests for different categories can be organized by GAD at State Headquarters (State level) and by the District Collector at district level, in each of the districts, for speedy disposal of the matter. Basing on the examination, a final list can be sent to various departments.

They, in turn, will enter into agreements with them basing on a modal agreement which may be finalized in consultation with Law Department and Advocate General. The agreements with the contract employees and secondly with the outsourcing agency need to be drafted to meet the principles of natural justice, orders or Supreme Court and to finally vetted by Law Department and Advocate General. A modal agreement used by Forest Department and APARD are included which can be further modified as per requirement.

At present the contract and outsourcing people are getting the following benefits: (a) 15 Casual Leaves; (b) Maternity leave for 120 days without pay; (c) All Public Holidays; (d) Enrollment to the ESI; (e) Contribution to the Employees Provident Fund.

They may be given enhancement of Rs.1000/- (Rupees one thousand only) every year until the pay scales are revised in future as in the case of Home Guards who are also not Government employees.

Other benefits for outsourcing employees: 1) Except earned leave, they should get all the facilities of regular employees including paid maternity leave of 6 months as per the law to the women contract/outsourced employees; 2) They should be enrolled for EPF, ESI as per law;

3) Minimum educational qualification shall be graduation for Junior Assistant and equivalent posts and a good proficiency in using computer and MS Office/Internet browsing, etc; 4) They should be given basic training, basing on the requirements of the department to which their services are being drafted. 5) They may be extended the bus pass facility as applicable to Govt. employees;

Contract Period and Renew: Basing on the requirement the tenure shall be at least for two (2) years. The performance should be assessed thereafter. If the performance is found to be extremely bad, the contract directly or through outsourcing agency should be discontinued, or else, the contract should be extended. The process of assessment, engagement or disengagement has to be done in a very transparent manner.

Contract employees at the higher level other than the above: Government have been taking employees at a slightly higher level on contract basis and also to meet the specific skills and knowledge based requirement. This can be continued basing on the proper assessment of the need. Engaging such personnel should be done by the Committee of Secretaries consisting of Secretary (GAD), Secretary (Services) and Finance Secretary. They also should be engaged with a specific contract agreement vetted by the Law Department and Advocate General.

Contract employees in Intermediate and Higher Education: A large number of lecturers are working in Intermediate and Higher Education Departments on contract basis. They are being paid minimum of the pay scale. The motivation level of these contract lecturers is at a low level, consequently, affecting the quality of education.

The Commission is of the opinion that the Government should fill the posts of lecturers through a regular recruitment. Whenever this recruitment is taking place, persons who are already working in junior colleges, degree colleges may be given suitable weightage during the selection process. They have to be recruited in regular posts basing on the qualifications, standards, etc. required for such posts on regular scale of pay. Others who are not selected may be continued in the present practice of minimum of the scale of pay corresponding to the post that they are holding, subject to availability of vacancies.

Similarly, the approach can be adopted for recruitment to posts in Group-III or Group-IV in any point in future and due age relaxation can be given to those who are already working in the Government either as Group-III or as Group-IV categories. It may not be out of place to mention here that due to relaxation of the age, people are being recruited directly even with 40 plus years of age. Therefore age may not be a serious consideration for recruitment of contract and outsourcing employees by giving due age relaxation whenever such recruitment is done.

Government have a reason to continue them in the present system of engagement, the above proposals to pay the minimum pay equivalent to the post in the revised pay scales and other recommendations. A promotion to the next stage of such posts, i.e., Junior Assistant to Senior Assistant or Senior Assistant to Superintendent with appropriate designation could be considered with experience of 8 years, a system may be evolved for upgrading the career in a transparent manner.

Thus, the minimum pay disparity between regular and contract/outsourcing employees can be rationalized and the other facilities recommended above to the contract/outsourcing employees can be given so that they too work with dignity and with a reasonable livelihood in terms of the present circumstances. Govt. in GO Ms.No.1058, GA (Spl.A) Dept., dated 15.4.2019 have issued the separate terms and conditions which are in the nature of the administrative reforms and the above issues will be dealt at greater length as part of that report basing on those terms and conditions. The recommendations in this report are essentially to enable the Government to take a decision in respect of these categories of employees along with the regular employees and pensioners.
