Sub:- Non Payment of Bonus to Postal Employees before the Durga Pooja, disappointment and anguish prevailing amongst the staff.

Respected Sir,

It has been customary all these years that productivity linked bonuses used to be paid before the Durga Pooja so that the employees of the department could celebrate the occasion and Diwali to follow up with the same sort of enthusiasm. But this year has been a big exception. We do not know the reason. One of the causes could be that the Postal Department could not submit the bonus proposal to the Finance Ministry. Whatever the reason, we must acquaint you with the ground reality where a great amount of resentment and anger is prevailing. The Puja Festival has passed with despair in the postal employees, especially the GDS and Diwali is knocking at the door. We must reiterate that the Bonus is not alms doled to the employees. It is a deferred wage and is paid at the time of some festival. There are well studied norms for measuring productivity which have no relation with profit or loss. The railways paid the bonus much in time and the condition of the postal employees as compared to the railway employees and dissatisfaction prevailing can be well imagined.

Non-Productivity Linked Bonus ad hoc bonus to Central Government Employees 2022

We would, therefore, request you to kindly take personal interest in the matter to ensure immediate payment of bonus to the Postal Employees to arrest the anger of the employees lest it explodes.

Payment of Productivity Linked Bonus to all eligible non-gazetted Railway employees for the financial year 2021 – 2022

With high regards

Yours Faithfully
