Revision of rates of stipend to apprentices and trainees on Railways.
Ref: Railway Board's letter No. PC-V/2008/PS/1 (Stipend) dated 15-12-2008
Consequent
upon the promulgation of Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2016 on
the basis of the recommendations of the Seventh Central Pay Commission,
the issue of revision in the rates of stipend to apprentices and
trainees (non-gazetted) on Railways was under consideration. Now, the
President is pleased to revise the rates of stipend to the apprentices
and trainees as per the schedule attached herein.
2. It is likely
that some of the existing categories of apprentices on certain Railways
may not have designations identical to what appears in the enclosed
Schedule. In such cases, the Railway administration, in consultation
with FA & CAO, should identify the designation/category of the
apprentice concerned with similar case appearing in the Schedule and
determine the rate of stipend applicable thereto. Wherever such
identification is not possible, specific cases may be reported to the
Board with verbatim comments of the FA & CAO.
3. In case, the
period of training as indicated in these orders is at variance with the
actual practice in respect of one or more categories, the matter should
be referred to the Railway Board for decision.
4. The apprentices and trainees will draw the revised rates of Dearness Allowance appropriate to the revised rates of stipend.
5. The revised rates of stipend will take effect from 01.08.2016.
6. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
7. Hindi version is enclosed.
