Dear Sir,
Since management side has rejected the suggestions put forward by unions side for Associate Officer, Office Manager, Supdt., Administrative, Executive etc. for Sr.TOAs, it is requested that staff may be asked to give proposals which can be placed in the next meeting. It may be mentioned here that only the designation ‘Office Associate’ is left. All other designations in the dictionary pertaining to clerical staff duties has been rejected by the management side.
In my opinion, the new designations which the management side will accept is as follows. We may go for that, otherwise the approved RM and TM desgn change will also not materialise because orders will be issued only after the new designations for major Non-executive cadres is changed.
1. RM – Telecom Assistant.
2. TM – Telecom Technician.
for Sr.TOAs
—————
NE-6 (pre-4720 scale) – Telecom Office Associate (TOA).
NE-7 & 8 (pre-5700 & 6550) – Sr.Telecom Office Associate (Sr.TOA).
NE-9 to NE-12 – Chief Telecom Office Associate (Chief TOA).
for TTA
———-
Junior Engineer (JE), if management agrees or Telecom Technical Associate (TTA).
Those Sr.Section Supervisors (Sr.SS) (NE-9 to NE-12) who want to retain their desgn as Sr.SS may be allowed to retain or can opt for the new desgn. – Chief Telecom Office Associate (Chief TOA).
Thanking You Sir,
With regards.
