PROMOTIONS IN THE WORKMEN CADRE

1. PROMOTION SCHEMES

An employee will be eligible to be considered for promotion to next Group / Scale on


completion of specified number of years of Service in the existing Group / Scale and
possessing requisite Educational Qualification prescribed for Promotion subject to
fulfilling other prescribed conditions. For the purpose of Promotion, Workmen in the
Company are segregated into two categories w.e.f 15.4.97 as follows:

a) Those who were on the Regular Rolls of the Company as on 15th April 1997, are
covered under Time Scale Promotion (TSP) Scheme;

b) Those who have been appointed / will be appointed as Regular employees on or


after 16th April 1997 are covered under Career Plan Scheme (CPS).

2. TIME SCALE PROMOTION SCHEME

This Scheme is applicable to all Workmen who have been appointed in the regular Pay
Scales of the Company on or before 15.4.97.

BACKGROUND: Prior to 1985, Promotions were based entirely on the availability of


vacancies. Consequently, Career opportunities for Workmen differed widely from Trade
to Trade and from Division to Division. In order to correct the situation and to evolve a
Time Bound Promotion policy, Management had introduced the Time Scale Promotion
Scheme for Workmen in Group-A, B, C, D and E effective from 1st January 1985. The
suitability of Workmen for promotions was determined by Written Test and Interview.
With the introduction of Group-F in the Workmen Cadre, the Time Scale Promotion
Scheme was extended to cover Promotions from Group-E to Group-F with effect from
1.9.86.

2.1 With a view to provide further promotional avenues to the existing Workmen, two new
Scales were introduced in the Company i.e. Scale-5 (between Group-B & C) and Scale-
10 (above Group-F) with effect from 15.4.97. With the introduction of Career Plan
Scheme w.e.f. 16.4.97, Vacancy Based Promotions from one Wage Group/Scale to
another Wage Group/Scale is discontinued within the Workmen cadre.

2.2 With effect from 1.1.2000, Promotions in the Workmen Cadre would be effected only
from one date in a year i.e. 1st January. Modifications in the existing Time Scale
Promotion Scheme were made effective from 1.1.01. The Written Test & Interview for
promotions under Time Scale Promotion Scheme has been withdrawn w.e.f 1.1.04 and
Promotions are now effected without referring to vacancies by adopting the
methodology indicated at para 11.

2.3 A Special Scale (SS) equivalent to Grade-I is introduced in the Workmen Cadre above
the present Scale-10 and certain modifications in the Time Scale Promotion Scheme
was made with effect from 1.3.08.

2.4 SPAN OF PROMOTION: Workmen in Scale-2 to Scale-10 [i.e Group-B, C, D, E, F and


Scale-10] will be eligible for Time Scale Promotion to the next higher Group on
completion of specified number of years of service in each Scale of Pay as indicated
below subject to fulfilling other prescribed Terms & Conditions:

Technical disciplines acquiring Degree in Engineering or its equivalent and in Non-
Technical disciplines acquiring 2 years Full Time or 3 years Part Time / Correspondence
Professional qualifications (viz. ICWA, CA, ACS, MBA etc.), in the relevant discipline,
while in service are given one year relaxation in their existing promotion span under
Time Scale Promotion Scheme in all Group / Scales as indicated in the above Table. In
any case, the period of uninterrupted service to be completed (span) for Promotion
from one Group / Scale to another will not be less than 4 years (fast track promotions
for Professionally Qualified Workmen).

ii. To derive the benefits of Professional Qualification for Promotion within the same Group
/ Scale as at (i) above, the Workmen should have acquired the qualification in the
Discipline in which they are working (examples: employees working in the Finance
Department should acquire the qualification in the Finance Discipline; employees
working in the HR Department should acquire qualification in the HR Discipline,
Workmen in Technical areas should acquire Degree in Engineering, etc.).

3. CAREER PLAN SCHEME (CPS)

3.1 BACKGROUND: A new Scheme known as Career Plan Scheme was introduced for the
new comers with effect from 16.4.97. In addition to the existing Wage Groups / Scales
of Pay, four more Pay Scales were introduced in respect of Workmen covered under this
Scheme. The Pay Scales would be known as Scales-1 to 10. The newly introduced
Scales are Scale-1 (before Group-A), Scale-3 (between Group-A and Group-B), Scale-5
(between Group-B and Group-C) and Scale-10 (above Group-F). Modifications in the
existing Career Plan Scheme were made with effect from 1.1.01 and again w.e.f 1.3.08

3.2 This Scheme would be applicable to all Workmen who have been / who would be
appointed in the regular Pay Scales of the Company on or after 16th April 1997.

3.3 CHANNEL/CADRE STRUCTURE

There are 4 Channels / Cadres in the Workmen Category under this Scheme, known as
Channels A, B, C & D. Workmen are categorized into the respective Channels, based on
the qualification required to be possessed for entry into each Channel as indicated

3.4 INDUCTION LEVELS

The Scales of pay to which appointments were made with effect from 16.4.97 to
28.2.08, Channel-wise are as follows:

3.5 Consequent to the upgradation of the Induction levels in Channels B, C & D w.e.f.
1.3.2008, Service Weightage equivalent to 75% of the service put in the Scale in which
the employee has been inducted (including the training period), subject to a maximum
of 3 years, in units of completed years, has been granted to Workmen inducted under
the Career Plan Scheme in Scales D5, C4 & B3 on or after 16.4.97 and who have been
promoted to higher Scales on or before 1.1.08, for their next promotion(s), in order
to eliminate seniority anomalies.

3.6 Workmen inducted in Scales-D5, C4 & B3 and continuing in these Scales as on 1.3.08
were elevated to Scales-D6, C5 & B4 respectively, w.e.f. 1.3.08. Further, they were
granted Service Weightage @ 50% of the service put in the Scale in which they are
inducted (including the training period), for the next Promotion. This Weightage has
been considered in units of completed years and months.

3.7 Workmen appointed in Scales-D5, C4 & B3 after 1.3.08 were re-fitted in Scales-D6, C5
& B4 respectively, depending on the qualifications possessed by them.

3.8 Workmen, if any, who were appointed under the Career Plan Scheme in the past in a
Scale of Pay higher than the one in which they would normally have been appointed as

4.9 SPECIAL CONSIDERATION IN RESPECT OF EMPLOYEES BELONGING TO THE


SC/ST CATEGORY

are Time Bound. However, in case the Govt. of India issues directions to the effect that
reservation of posts is to be made in TSP & Career Plan Schemes or to the effect that
reduced time span be prescribed for these promotions in respect of SC/ST employees
compared to employees in the General category, the same will be implemented in the
Company also.

4.10 Promotion under the scheme will be without reference to vacancies and Workmen
promoted will be given the Designation of higher Group / Scale and will not be adjusted
against regular vacancies in the higher Group / Scale. Workmen who are promoted
under the TSP Scheme / Career Plan Scheme will continue to perform the duties they
were performing in the lower Group / Scale prior to their Promotion.

4.11 Time Scale Promotion / Career Plan Scheme Promotion will not leave / result in
vacancies in the lower Wage Group / Scale as those promoted are held supernumerary

Leave Without Pay (LWP) during that period as enumerated below:

a) The following types of absence would be reckoned for the purpose of consideration of
Physical attendance of 210 days:

i. Special Leave for participating in Sports activities sponsored by the Company;

8
ii. Deputation by the Company for Training courses, Seminars, Meetings etc.;

iii. Special leave for family welfare operation to the extent admissible under the
Rules;

iv. Maternity Leave as admissible under the Maternity Benefit Act or the ESI Scheme
for the first 3 deliveries;

v. Paternity Leave as per Rules;

vi. Leave on account of employment injury;

vii. If a Workmen attends duty for half a day and avails half a day’s Casual Leave for
the other half on that day, such Workmen should be treated as having been
present for full day for this purpose;

viii. Special Casual Leave granted to Workmen on account of curfew / civil


disturbance may be treated as Physical attendance provided Workmen had
attended the duty both on the preceding day and following day of the Special
Casual Leave;

ix. Additional paid holidays granted by the Company may also be treated as
physical attendance provided the Workmen had attended duty both on the
preceding and the following day of the holiday;

x. Period of absence on account of hospitalization due to accident or sickness


including the period of rest and or treatment at home following the
hospitalization as advised and certified by authorized Medical Officer of HAL;

The above certification from the authorized Medical Officer of Government could
be considered on the following cases only:

a) For Workmen posted at places where there is no HAL Hospital;


b) When a Workman is out of Headquarters on Tour or Leave;

While on this, certification from the authorized Medical Officers of Referral


Hospitals could be considered for all referred cases by HAL’s authorized Medical
Officer.

Employees who apply for LWP on Medical Grounds need to enclose required
supporting documents along with the Leave Application. Further, the application
should be submitted at the earliest opportunity. In this regard, employees need
to submit applications for availing / regularizing already availed LWP on medical
grounds, within a maximum period of 1 month from the date of joining back for
duty.

b) In case of average LWP (per annum) above nineteen days and upto thirty eight days,
promotion / grant of additional increment(s) will get deferred by six months and
beyond that period by one year. For being eligible for said promotion / grant of
additional increment there should be no LWP during the extended period otherwise the
promotion gets further shifted by six months and so on.

4.14.2 Once the promotion is deferred on account of not meeting the condition of average 210
days of Physical attendance (on account of LWP) during the preceding two years, the
promotion can be effected in subsequent year, provided there was no LWP during the

9
extended period, without further checking whether the employee fulfills the condition of
average 210 days of Physical attendance during the preceding two years with reference
to revised date of reckoning.

4.15. Since the assessment of the employees for promotion under Time Scale Promotion
Scheme and Career Plan Scheme are determined based on Average Performance Index
and Committee Evaluation, the Promotion of Workmen will be notified individually and
their promotion will be made effective only on their assuming charge of the higher
Group / Scale in writing.

5. GRANT OF ADDITIONAL INCREMENT TO WORKMEN IN SCALE-10, SCALE-9 AND

5.1.1 Workmen having the Qualification of SSLC / equivalent & above with unblemished
service in Scale-10 will be granted one Additional increment on completion of eligibility
period of 4 years of uninterrupted service in Scale-10. On the introduction of the
Special Scale, the system of granting the 2nd Additional Increment to Workmen in
Scale-10 on completion of 8 years of un-interrupted service in Scale-10 is discontinued.

5.1.2 The rate of Additional increment will be at the rate of increment due to the concerned
employee and this additional increment will be reckoned as Basic Pay for all purposes.

5.1.3 The following conditions need to be fulfilled by the Workmen in Scale-10 with
qualification of SSLC & above for getting the Additional Increment:

a) The Workmen should have met the Average Physical Attendance criterion as
enumerated at para 4.14;

6. PROMOTION OF RE-MUSTERED WORKMEN TO HIGHER SCALES

6.1 The Scheme for re-mustering of Unskilled Workmen in Semi-skilled Trades in the same
Scale was discontinued from the year 2003 / 2004.

6.2 Workmen who are re-mustered from Un-skilled Trade to Semi-skilled Trades, in Scale-
4/5 will be eligible for promotion to Scale-6, on completion of un-interrupted service in
Scale - 4/5 from the date of re-mustering, as provided in the Rules.

6.3 50% of the service put in by Workmen who are re-mustered from Un-Skilled Trades to
Semi-Skilled Trades and who are continuing in the same Scale, in the Un-Skilled Trade
in the re-mustered Scale, in units of completed years, will be reckoned as Service
Weightage for the purpose of their TSP to the next Scale. In respect of Workmen who
have already been promoted to higher Scale(s) from the re-mustered Scale, the period
of Service Weightage so arrived at will be reckoned for the purpose of their subsequent
promotion.

6.3.1 Service Weightage for their next promotion will be arrived at with reference to the total
service in the Un-skilled Trades in Scale-4 & 5 put together. The Service weightage
would be 50% of the Total service in the Un-skilled Trades in Scales-4 & 5 put together,
in units of completed years.

6.3.2 In order to avoid the occurrence of anomalous situation, if a junior Un-skilled Workman
in Scale-5 in the Division/Office is promoted to Scale-6 under the TSP Scheme, Senior
Workmen in Scale-5 in the Division/Office who have been re-mustered to Semi-skilled
Trades in Scale-5 could be granted TSP to Scale-6 w.e.f. the date on which the junior
Unskilled Workman has been promoted to Scale-6, irrespective of the number of years
of service completed by the Senior Workman in the re-mustered Trade in Scale-5.

6.4 DEAD-END TRADES

The Workmen in the dead-end Trades are also eligible for promotion to the next higher
Group. On promotion they will continue to have the designation of the respective dead-
end Trade in the higher Group also indicating the Group to which the employee belongs
within brackets Eg: Chief Cook (Group-C) on promotion to Group-D will be designated
as Chief Cook (Group-D). The prescribed qualification and designation for posts in
various dead end Trades are indicated at Annexure-I

7. CAREER GROWTH FROM ONE CHANNEL TO ANOTHER CHANNEL

7.1 Workmen would be eligible for movement from one Channel to another Channel i.e
Channel B to C, Channel C to D on acquiring higher qualification while in service in the
discipline prescribed for entry into the next Channel, relevant to Divisional requirement
without any linkage to vacancies. The following criteria need to be fulfilled for such
movement to next higher Channel:

11
i. Workmen should possess qualifications prescribed for entry into the concerned higher
Channel;

ii. Movement from one Channel to next would be in the same Scale of Pay only (eg: B5 to
C5, C6 to D6 etc.);

iii. The Management will be free to decide the posting of such employees on their elevation
to the higher Channel;

iv. Criteria for movement from one Channel to the next would be merit. Suitability of
Workmen would be assessed by the duly constituted Selection Committee based on
Test & Interview and past performances as reflected in the Confidential Reports for the
last 3 years;

v. The Workmen should have met the Average Physical Attendance criterion as
enumerated at para 4.14.

vi. If any Workmen has been imposed with minor or major punishment during the
reckoning period, his movement from one Channel to another in the same Scale of Pay
gets postponed by six months and one year for each minor and major punishment
respectively.

vii. When Workmen move from one channel to another in the same scale of pay (eg: B5 to
C5, B6 to C6, C6 to D6) there would not be any change in the pay drawn.

8. OTHER ASPECTS PERTAINING TO MODIFIED TSP/CPS W.E.F. 1.3.08

8.1 SENIORITY ANOMALIES

Consequent to the up-gradation of the induction levels under the Career Plan Scheme
as at Para 3.4 and grant of Service Weightage as at Paras-3.5/3.6/3.14, seniority
anomalies may arise between Workmen possessing qualification of NAC / NCTVT
inducted in Scale 4 under the Time Scale Promotion (TSP) Scheme on or before 15th
April 1997 and Workmen possessing the same qualification inducted after 15th April
1997 in Channel C under the Career Plan Scheme (CPS). No seniority anomalies are
expected in respect of employees possessing other qualifications.

8.2 The total span for reaching Scale 10 under the TSP Scheme in respect of Workmen
possessing NAC / NCTVT qualification inducted in Scale 4, with the span for promotion
as indicated at Para-2.4, will be 28 years. The total span for reaching Scale 10 under the
CPS, after upgradation of the induction levels as at Para-3.15 in respect of Workmen
with NAC/NCTVT qualification, would also be 28 years. In respect of Workmen with NAC
/ NCTVT qualification inducted under the CPS in Scale 4 who have already been
promoted to a higher Scale, the total span for reaching Scale 10, with the benefit of 3
years Service Weightage as at Para-3.5 would be 30 years.

8.3 The procedure as at Paras-8.4 to 8.7 will be followed for settling seniority anomalies, if
any, which may arise between Workmen referred at Para-8.2 inducted under the TSP
Scheme on or before 15th April 1997 and those inducted under the CPS after 15.4.97
who have got the benefit of Service Weightage

12
8.4 As indicated at Para-8.2, the total span required in respect of a Workman with
NAC/NCTVT qualification under the TSP Scheme, to reach Scale 10, from Scale 4, would
be 28 years vis-à-vis 30 years required by a Workman possessing the same
qualification inducted in Scale 4 under the CPS who will derive the benefit of 3 years
Service Weightage. Considering this aspect, no changes would be made in respect of
the employees under the TSP Scheme. In other words, the case will not be considered
as a seniority anomaly;

8.5 Alternatively, in case a Workman under the CPS who is eligible for Service Weightage
becomes eligible for promotion to the next higher Scale earlier to a senior Workman
under the TSP Scheme, the senior Workman under the TSP Scheme will also be eligible
for promotion to the next higher Scale, on the same date as the Workman under the
CPS. In this case, further promotions of the Senior Workman who is presently under the
TSP Scheme, will be under the CPS only.

8.6 Concerned senior Workmen under the TSP Scheme would have to choose between the
options at paras-8.4 or 8.5.

8.7 Comparison as at para-8.5 would be made within the same Division / Office only.

8.8 The following guidelines are to be followed in respect of employees who have availed
Leave Without Pay / whose training period was extended / whose probation period was
extended / who have been imposed with punishment etc., and who are to be
considered for elevation to the next higher Scale of Pay / Grant of Service Weightage
for their next promotion:

that period like in the case of Time Scale Promotions as provided at Para 4.14.1. In
respect of employees who have not completed 2 years regular service as on 1.3.08, the
requirement of average Physical Attendance will be decided on a pro-rata basis;

b. Further, like in the case of Time Scale Promotions as provided at para 4.14.1, in cases
of average LWP (per annum) above 19 days and upto 38 days, the elevation will be
deferred by 6 months. In cases of LWP above 38 days, the elevation will be deferred
by one year. For being eligible for the elevation, there should be no LWP during the
extended period of 6 months / 1 year. Otherwise, the elevation will be further extended
by 6 months and so on.

c. In order to become eligible for the elevation, no punishments should also have been

for Service Weightage of only 25% (as against 50% in normal cases) of the service put
in the Scale in which they are inducted (including the training period), in units of
completed years, limited to a maximum of 2 years;

b. In case of an employee falls into more than one category as indicated at para (a) or has
been imposed with 2 or more Minor punishments, no Service Weightage will be

beyond 6 months on account of unsatisfactory performance; or whose probation period
in the induction scale was extended beyond 6 months; or who were on LWP beyond 38
days (average per annum); or who were imposed with Major Punishments; will also not
be eligible for any Service Weightage;

d. The period of Service Weightage will be determined with reference to the service put in
by the employee from the date of induction as a Trainee to 1.3.08 only.

8.8.2 WORKMEN INDUCTED UNDER THE CAREER PLAN SCHEME IN SCALES B3, C4 OR
D5 ON OR AFTER 16.4.97 AND WHO HAVE BEEN PROMOTED TO HIGHER
SCALES ON OR BEFORE 1.1.08

a. The normal conditions of meeting the requirement of average Physical attendance


during the preceding 2 years and that no punishments should have been imposed
during the eligibility period, would be applicable for their promotion to the next higher
Scale. In respect of employees who were on LWP above 19 days (average Physical
Attendance) or who were imposed with punishments, promotions would be deferred as
provided in the Rules;

b. Employees whose training period before absorption was extended upto 6 months on

are inducted (including the training period) in units of completed years, limited to a
maximum of 3 years;

c. In case of employee falls into more than one category as indicated at para (a) or has
been imposed with 2 or more minor punishments, no Service Weightage will be
admissible;

d. Workmen whose training period before absorption as regular employees was extended
beyond 6 months on account of unsatisfactory performance; or whose probation period
in the induction Scale was extended beyond 6 months; or who were on LWP (average
per annum) beyond 38 days during the service in the induction Scale; or who were
imposed with major punishments during the service in the induction scale, will not be
eligible for any Service Weightage for their promotion to the next Scale;

14
9. EXTENSION OF DATE OF PROMOTION

9.1 In cases where the prescribed training / contract period is extended on account of
unsatisfactory performance / non-completion of training satisfactorily, the service
eligibility for promotion to the next higher Scale will be increased by the period by
which the training / contract period is extended in units of minimum 6 months or 1
year, as the case may be as given below:

Scale of Normal service eligibility Service eligibility for promotion to the next
Induction for promotion to the next higher Scale when the training / contract period
higher scale under the is Extended
Career Plan Scheme Extension upto 6 Extension between 6
Months months & 1 year
Scale 4 5 years 5 ½ years* 6 years

appointed, will be deferred as indicated below:

Extension of probation period Extension of Service eligibility for promotion

Upto 6 months 6 months#


6 months to 1 year 1 year
More than 1 year 2 Years

*, # As promotions are effected only from 1st January of the year, the promotion will be

11. METHODOLOGY OF ASSESSING SUITABILITY FOR PROMOTION UNDER THE
TIME SCALE PROMOTION SCHEME & CAREER PLAN SCHEME

11.1 There would not be any Trade / Written Test and / or Interview for Promotion from one

‘Committee Evaluation’ and Marks would be awarded as follows:

Maximum Marks
Average Performance Index (API) : 70
Committee Evaluation : 30
-----------------
100
-----------------
Marks for API would be awarded as follows:

Total of Overall CR Gradations or PAR Marks for preceding 3 years X 70


100 (Highest possible CR Gradations or PAR Marks) X 3

For this purpose, conversion of CR Gradations to be reckoned for the concerned years
would be quantified as indicated below:

Overall Gradation Equivalent Marks


Outstanding 100
Very Good 80
Good 60
Fair 40
Poor 20

11.2 Minimum qualifying marks to become eligible for promotion would be 45% each in API
and Committee Evaluation as well as in aggregate. In respect of Workmen belonging to

at the time of his promotion / appointment into account whichever is more beneficial to
the employee.

19
16. RELAXATION

The Managing Directors, Executive Directors and General Managers will have the
powers to make appointments to posts in relaxation of the minimum standard

These powers will be exercised by the Executive Directors/General Managers only if


candidates with the qualifications and experience prescribed in the rules are not
available, and ED/GMs are satisfied that the relaxations will not adversely affect
efficiency.

The Managing Directors are authorized to make relaxations in Age, Educational


Qualifications and Experience, to the extent necessary, for appointment to post below
Grade-IV, whether the appointment is to be made by Direct Recruitment or by

20
17. VIGILANCE CLEARANCE

17.1 There should not be any Disciplinary case pending / Contemplated against the Workmen
who are being considered for promotion. Vigilance Clearance needs to be obtained in
respect of the Workmen who are being considered for promotion;

17.2 The practice of obtaining Vigilance Clearance in respect of Selection Committee


Members for Vacancy Based and Time Bound promotions in respect of Workmen is
discontinued;

17.3 HR Dept. should ensure that (Members) being nominated as Selection Committee
Members for promotion (Vacancy Based & Time Bound) in respect of Workmen have not
been issued any Advisory / Punishment in Recruitment / Promotion cases during the
preceding three years, reckoning the date of the Selection Committee Meeting;

17.4 Officers as at 17.3 above will not be nominated as Selection Committee Members;

17.5 Divisions / Offices will put a system in place to ensure compliance of the provisions at
paras 17.3 & 17.4 above;

21
18 REMOVAL OF SALARY DISPARITIES – WORKMEN

18.1 Adjustment of pay of a Senior employee if a Junior employee in the lower Group
promoted subsequently receives higher pay than that of the Senior.

18.2 The disparity in pay between the Junior and the Senior employee should have been the
direct result of application of the normal rules regarding fixation of pay on Promotion;

18.3 Both the Senior and the Junior employee should belong to the same Wage Group in the
same Division / Office.

18.4 On the date of Promotion of the Senior employee from the lower Group, they should
have been receiving equal or higher pay as compared to that of the Junior employee,
who was promoted subsequently.

18.5 The subsequent date of increment of the Senior employee would be reckoned with
effect from the date on which his pay was stepped up to equal with that of the Junior
employee. This would, however, not alter their inter-se-seniority in the higher Group
which would be reckoned only with reference to their respective dates of appointment
to the higher Group;

18.6 The disparity in pay of the Junior and the Senior employee in question should not have
been the result of any advance increments granted to the Junior employee at the time
of their appointment, or stoppage or with-holding of increments of the senior employee
as a measure of punishment.

18.7 This rule would not apply to the cases of disparity if any arising between the promoted
employees and the employees appointed through open selection and cases of disparity,
if any, arising as a result of fixation of pay on account of wage revision in the revised
scales of pay.

18.8 Adjustment of pay is to be effected on the basis of representations, if any, made in this
behalf by the concerned employee within a period of one year from the date of such
disparity in pay has occurred. This does not, however, prevent the Management from
correcting such disparities on its own, if (a) such disparities are patent (b) fulfill the
prescribed conditions and (c) come to light at the time of effecting promotions or soon
thereafter but in any case not exceeding one year from the date of such disparity.

18.9 Method of removal of salary disparities will be issued along with the Wage Revision
which needs to be referred before making any changes.

22
19 INCREMENTS FOR WORKMEN

19.1 Increments will be granted on the first of the month in which the individual completes
one year of service after appointment.

19.2 The system of single date of Annual Increment, i.e. 1st January and its regulation would
continue. Annual Increment will be granted @ 3% of the revised running Basic Pay.
The resultant amount will be rounded up to the next Rs.10. Items which are considered
as Basic Pay for different purposes (excluding Personal Pay granted during 2012 wage
revision for Workmen) like Special pay & Service Weightage pay, will not be reckoned
for grant of the Annual Increment.

19.3 Annual Increments in the respective Time Scales of pay will accrue to the employees
automatically, unless it is withheld or postponed in the following circumstances:-

(i) as a penalty imposed in accordance with the Certified Standing Orders, as a


punishment.

(ii) as a result of leave without pay exceeding 15 days in a year reckoned from the
date of last increment.

19.4 In the case of Workmen who are covered by the HAL leave Rules 1988 notified vide PC
582 Dt. 15.07.1988, the deferment will be only for that particular year. The deferment
of increment on account of absence will not have cumulative effect for the purpose of
deriving subsequent increment.

19.5 Where penalty is imposed, the orders imposing penalty are to indicate the period for
which the increment is postponed and whether it is to have cumulative effect or not.

19.6 The first spell of leave without pay, taken by an employee shall not result in
postponement of his increment. Any further leave without pay availed by the employee

15. EFFECT OF PUNISHMENTS ON VACANCY BASED PROMOTIONS AND CAREER
PLAN PROMOTION

A) VACANCY BASED PROMOTIONS – DPC / IMS

i) Vacancy Based Promotions in case of Officers on whom punishments are imposed


during the preceding 3 years are considered from:

(c) The date arrived at by increasing the service eligibility period in the Grade by 1
& 2 years for each minor & major penalty respectively;
[OR]

(d) From the date arrived at by postponing the date of promotion by 1 & 2 years
from the date on which each minor & major punishment respectively is imposed;

whichever is later.

ii) If any other punishment is imposed during the extended / deferred period, the system /
procedure at (i) above to be followed again.

iii) Further, if the punishment imposed is still under implementation [e.g.: postponement of
Annual Increment with cumulative effect for 4 years] i.e during the period of currency
of punishment, the Officer will not be eligible for promotion during the period.

iv) The term 'currency of punishment' will be applicable only to punishments which are
implemented over a period of time, like Postponement of Increments.

Example: If Annual Increment of an Officer is postponed without cumulative effect for a


period of 3 years, then the currency of punishment would be applicable consecutively
for next 3 years [say if punishment is awarded on 1.4.13, Increment due on 1.1.14 will
be postponed and will be re-stored on 1.1.17. In this case, the currency will be till
31.12.16];

B) PROMOTIONS UNDER THE CPP SCHEME

i) No punishment should have been imposed on the Officer during the preceding three
years. Officers on whom minor penalties are imposed are debarred from being
considered for Career Plan Promotion by 1 year and those on whom major penalties
have been imposed would be debarred for 2 years;

ii) Postponement of promotion is to be reckoned from the normal due date of CPP (i.e the
date on which the Officer would have been eligible for CPP had there been no
punishment) and not from the date of imposition of punishment;

iii) The concept of currency of punishment is not applicable to these promotions.

Note:

Postponement of promotion by 1 & 2 years indicated at (i) above would be applicable


for each minor & major punishment respectively.

iv) In cases where Disciplinary proceedings are pending on the normal due date of
promotion after issuance of Charge Sheet, promotion would not be effected and the
same would be kept pending till the completion of the disciplinary proceedings;

v) In case the Officer is exonerated of the charges, he will be considered for promotion,
after the closure of the case, with effect from the normal due date. Such ante-dated
promotion will be without financial benefit.

vi) In cases where punishments are imposed, upon completion of the Disciplinary
proceedings, the Officer will be considered for promotion, after closure of the case, from
the next available & eligible date for effecting promotion, also reckoning the
postponement of promotion to be effected based on the punishment imposed. Illustrate
cases are as under:

Case – I

Date of Seniority in Grade - III : 01.07.2009

58
16. PROMOTION OF OFFICER WHO IS UNDER SUSPENSION OR AGAINST WHOM
DISCIPLINARY/ CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS ARE PENDING

16.1 While considering the suitability of Officers, who are within the zone of Vacancy Based
Promotions / Career Plan Promotions, details of Officer(s) falling under the following
categories should be brought to the notice of the Departmental Promotion Committee:-

(a) Officers under suspension;

(b) Officers in respect of whom a charge-sheet has been issued and disciplinary
proceedings are pending;

(c) Officers in respect of whom prosecution for a criminal charge is pending

16.2 The DPC after assessing the suitability of the Officer coming under one of the categories
mentioned above, shall keep the assessment in a sealed cover with the superscription
that “Findings regarding suitability for promotion to Grade ____ in respect of
Shri_________________ not to be opened till the termination of disciplinary
proceedings / criminal prosecution / investigation / enquiry against
Shri_______________”

The proceedings of the DPC need only contain the note. The findings are contained in
the attached sealed cover.

16.3 On conclusion of the enquiry / investigation or criminal proceedings which results in


dropping of allegation or complaints against Officer, the sealed cover shall be opened.
In case the Officer is completely exonerated, the due date of his promotion will be
determined with reference to the position assigned to him in the findings kept in the
sealed cover / covers and with the reference to the date of promotion of his next junior.
He may be promoted notionally with reference to the date on which he would have been
promoted. However, whether the Officer concerned will be entitled to any arrears of pay
for the period of notional promotion preceding the date of actual promotion and if so, to
what extent, will be decided by the appointing authority by taking into consideration
facts and circumstances of the disciplinary proceeding / criminal prosecution. Where the
authority denies arrears of salary or part of it, it will record its reasons for doing so. It is
not possible to anticipate and enumerate exhaustively all the circumstances under
which such denials of arrears of salary or part of it may become necessary. However,
there may be cases where the proceedings, whether disciplinary or criminal, are, for
example delayed at the instance of the employee or the clearance in the disciplinary
proceedings or acquittal in the criminal proceedings is with benefit of doubt or on
account of non-availability of evidence due to the acts attributable to the employee, etc.
These are only some of the circumstances where such denial can be justified.

16.4 If there is no vacancy available in the relevant discipline at the time of his promotion,
he may be promoted and adjusted against the next wastage vacancy. If any penalty is
imposed on the Officer as a result of disciplinary proceedings / investigations, the
findings of the sealed cover / covers shall not be acted upon. His case for promotion
may be considered by the next DPC in the normal course and having regard to the
penalty imposed on him;

16.5 It is necessary to ensure that the disciplinary cases / investigation instituted against
any Officer is not unduly prolonged and all efforts to finalise expeditiously the
proceedings should be taken, so that, the need for keeping the case in the sealed cover
is limited to the barest minimum;

59
16.6 However, if the disciplinary proceedings / investigation goes beyond the validity of the
panel i.e one year from the date of interview, the sealed cover shall not be acted upon
and the case of the Officer for promotion may be considered by the next DPC and the
recommendation of the DPC be kept in the closed cover in the event the disciplinary
proceedings and investigation is not completed at the time of conducting the DPC;

16.7 An Officer who is recommended for promotion by DPC but in whose case any of the
circumstances mentioned in para-16.1 above arises, after the recommendations of the
DPC are received but before he is actually promoted, it will be treated as if his case has
been placed in the sealed cover by the DPC. He will not be promoted until he is
completely exonerated of the charges against him and the provisions contained above
will be applicable in such cases also.

16.8 To ensure that promotion of Officers are not kept pending on account of frivolous cases,
the following procedure will be followed while considering an Officer for promotion,
against whom prosecution for criminal charge is pending (Refer para 16.1 (c)):

i) PENDING CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS RELATED TO HAL / SERVICE IN HAL

The existing system will continue to be applicable.

ii) PENDING CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS NOT RELATED TO HAL / SERVICE IN HAL

The existing system of sealed cover procedure will be followed in such cases also.
However, if the prosecution for the criminal charge is pending in a matter not related to
HAL / Service in HAL, and has arisen out of a private complaint / petition filed by a third
party, the authority competent to effect the promotion can review the matter, pending
closure of the criminal proceedings and decide to open the sealed cover, after
ascertaining the nature / type of the case and process the matter further. However, if
the private complaint is filed in a matter, which has already been decided in favour of
employee by a Competent Authority, it will have no impact on promotion. If pending
criminal proceedings are initiated by the State, though the matter may not be related to
HAL / service in HAL, the sealed cover will not be acted upon till the completion of the
proceedings.

60
17. EFFECT OF LEAVE WITHOUT PAY (LWP) / EXTENSION OF PROBATION /
EXTENSION OF TRAINING / CONTRACT PERIOD

17.1 The guidelines for considering Officers who fall into the following categories for
promotion are indicated at paras 17.2 to 17.8:

i) Officers whose training period as Executive Trainees / Management Trainees / Design


Trainees is extended on account of non completion of the prescribed training
satisfactorily;

ii) Officers who are initially appointed on Contract basis for specific periods & whose
contract service is extended before regularization on account of unsatisfactory

reckoned as service for the purpose of promotion to the next Grade;

iii) Officers whose probation period on initial appointment is extended on account of non
satisfactory performance during the probation; and

iv) Officers who avail Leave Without Pay.

17.2 In cases where the prescribed training / contract period is extended on account of
unsatisfactory performance / non-completion of training satisfactorily, the service
eligibility for promotion to the next higher Grade will be increased by the period by
which the training / contract period is extended, in units of minimum 6 months or 1
year, as the case may be. Illustrative examples are given below:

a Certificate from the Chief of Medical Services of the concerned Complex / Division,
indicating the sickness and certifying that they were unable to attend duty for the
period of LWP on account of the said sickness.

17.6 The effect of LWP availed by Executive / Management / Design Trainees during their
training period, on their promotion to the next higher Grade is as under:
62
i) The Training period in respect of Executive / Management / Design Trainees is reckoned
as service in the Grade in which they are absorbed, for the purpose of their promotion
under IMS/DPC/CPP to the next higher Grade, subject to meeting the other prescribed
conditions. Consequently, it is clarified that LWP, if any, availed by Executive /
Management / Design Trainees during the training period will be considered as LWP
availed during the service in the Grade in which they are absorbed, and their promotion
to the next higher Grade would be processed as spelt out Para 17.4 above.

ii) It is further clarified that extension of the date of absorption of Executive / Management
/ Design Trainees, from the actual due date, by the number of days of LWP availed
during the training period, will not fall in the category indicated at Para 17.2. Extension
of the normal period of training, by specific periods (say, 3 months, 6 months etc.) on
account of non completion of the training within the normal period / failure, will only be
reckoned under para 17.2.

17.7 The procedure to be adopted in determining the date of eligibility for promotion in
respect of Officers who avail further LWP during the extended period, whose promotion
was earlier extended on account of LWP availed during the normal eligibility period is as
under:

i) In respect of Officers who avail LWP other than on Medical Grounds during the extended

18. PROMOTION OF OFFICERS WHO ARE SPONSORED / DEPUTED FOR HIGHER
STUDIES / TRAINING OR GRANTED STUDY LEAVE

18.1 Guidelines to be followed in respect of Promotion of Officers who are sponsored /


deputed for higher studies / training or granted Study Leave, covering the following
aspects are detailed in paras 18.2 to 18.6:

i) Procedure to be followed for considering Officers, who are deputed/sponsored for


Higher Studies/Training or granted Study Leave, for promotion;

ii) Date of joining on promotion, reckoning of Probation Period and Confirmation in cases
of Officers promoted as at (i) above;

iii) System for raising PARs during the period of Deputation/Sponsorship/Study Leave;

iv) Procedure for reckoning Probation period, Confirmation etc in respect of Officers who
are sponsored/deputed for Higher Studies/Training or granted Study Leave, before
completion of Probation period;

v) Grant of Annual increments in cases of Officers deputed/sponsored for Higher


Studies/Training after promotion but before completion of the probation period.

18.2 Officers who are sponsored / deputed by the Company for Higher Studies / Training
would be considered for Career Plan Promotion w.e.f. the normal due dates and for
Vacancy Based Promotions during the year(s) in which they would have been
considered for promotion, had they not been on Deputation / Sponsorship. However,
promotion orders in respect of such Officers who are cleared for promotion (under CPP /
DPC / IMS / Selection) would be issued only after they join back for duties, w.e.f. the
original due date of promotion, with seniority and financial benefits. Annual increments
in such cases, in the promoted Scales / Grades, would be granted (after the promotion
orders are issued) as if the Officers concerned have been confirmed. Probation period in
such cases would start w.e.f. the actual date of joining the promoted post. Confirmation
would be processed depending upon the completion of the probation period and Annual
Increments already granted, pending confirmation, would be re-adjusted, if necessary,
depending upon the date of confirmation;

18.3 Officers who are granted Study Leave by the Company would be considered for Career
Plan Promotion w.e.f. the normal due dates and for Vacancy Based Promotions during
the year(s) in which they would have been considered for promotion, had they not been
on Study Leave. Promotion orders in respect of such Officers who are cleared for
promotion (under CPP / DPC / IMS / Selection) would also be issued only after they join
back for duties. Though they would be granted ante-dated seniority in the promoted
post w.e.f. the original due date of promotion, they would be eligible for financial
benefits in the promoted post only from the date of issue of the promotion order;

18.4 Requisite number of vacancies for promoting Officers who are on Deputation /
Sponsorship for Higher Studies / Training or who have been granted Study Leave and
who have been found suitable for Vacancy Based promotions as at Paras 18.2 & 18.3
above, should be kept aside by the Division / Office concerned, out of the total
vacancies available during the concerned year(s), for effecting promotions of such
selected Officers, after they join back for duties.

64
18.5 No Performance Appraisal Reports would be raised during the period of Sponsorship /
Deputation for Higher Studies/Training or Study Leave. However, if the Officer is
available for duties for a part of the year (more than 3 months), PAR for that period
would be raised and the same would be considered as for the full year, for the purpose
of promotions.

18.6 In respect of year(s) for which PARs are not available, the overall Gradation of the year
for which PAR was raised last would notionally be taken as the Gradation for the
concerned year(s), for the purpose of considering such Officers for Promotion.

EXAMPLE

PARs of 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15 are to be reckoned for considering an Officer
for promotion to Gr-III. However, no PARs were raised during 2012-13 and 2013-14 as
the Officer was deputed for Higher Studies. Gradation of 2011-12 was ‘87’. Accordingly,
Gradations for 2012-13 and 2013-14 would be reckoned as ‘87’ for the purpose of
considering him for promotion.

18.7 In respect of Officers who are deputed / sponsored for Higher Studies / Training or
granted Study Leave, during the period of Probation, the probationary period of 12
months would be reckoned covering the period which such Officers would already have
served in the promoted post prior to Deputation/Sponsorship for Higher Studies /
Training or grant of Study Leave and the balance period after they join back for duties.
Such Officers who are deputed / sponsored for Higher Studies / Training would be
eligible for Annual Increments every year, irrespective of the fact that they have not
been confirmed. Annual Increments already granted to such Officers, pending
confirmation, would be re-adjusted, if necessary, depending upon the date of
confirmation.

EXAMPLE

An Officer who was promoted w.e.f. 1.7.12 was deputed for Higher Studies during the
period 6.10.12 to 5.4.14. The Probation period in his case would be from 1.7.12 to
5.10.12 and again from 6.4.14 to 31.12.14 (i.e., excluding the period 6.10.12 to 5.4.14
during which he is undergoing Higher Studies)

18.8 The methodology to be adopted for conducting the Interview of candidates who are
sponsored for higher studies aboard are as follows:

i) Written Test of Officers sponsored for Higher Studies abroad, granted Study Leave to
pursue courses abroad, posted abroad, etc. would be conducted through Internet, at
the same time when the Written Test is conducted for Officers within the Country;

ii) Conduct of Written Test through Internet can also be done in respect of Officers who
are within the Country but not at the Head Quarters (like sponsorship for Higher
Studies; granted Study Leave, posted at Outstations etc.). Alternatively, such
candidates can be called to attend the Written Test at the nearest Division / Office;

iii) Interview of Officers sponsored for Higher Studies aboard, granted Study Leave to
pursue courses abroad, posted abroad etc. would be done at the same time as that of
their counterparts within the Country, through Video Conferencing;

iv) Interview of Officers in the category at (ii) will also be conducted through Video
Conferencing. If Video Conferencing facilities are not available, they can be called to
the Division / Office for attending the Interview.

65
v) Promotion Orders in respect of Officers sponsored for Higher Studies or granted Study
Leave (both abroad & within the Country) and who are selected for promotion would be
issued only after they join back duty in the Division / Office, as specified in the Rules.
Requisite number of vacancies for promoting such selected Officers would be kept aside
by the Division / Office also, as specified. Promotion Orders in respect of Officers who
are posted abroad & selected for promotions will be issued alongwith their counterparts
within the Country. There will be no change in effecting the promotions in respect of
Officers who are being considered for promotion under CPP.

18.9 Officers should be confirmed in their existing Grade for consideration for promotion to
the next higher Grade.

18.10 In some cases, Officers who were sponsored to pursue higher studies could not be
considered for promotion to the next higher Grade as they had not been confirmed in
their existing Grade as on the date of eligibility for promotion. The issue has arisen due
to administrative delay in issuance of promotion orders. Further, Officers who are
sponsored for higher studies during the period of probation has to complete the balance
period of probation after they join back the Division. In other words, the period of study
/ sponsorship is not considered for the purpose of probation. Similarly, promotion
orders of the Officers who are sponsored for higher studies can only be issued after
they join back for duties and their probation will start thereafter, on assumption of
charge. In such cases, the following system need to be adopted:

a) PROMOTIONS UNDER IMS / DPC

To assess the suitability of such Officers for promotion after their confirmation in the
existing Grade, from the next earliest available date of promotion, along with other
fresh Officers due on that date, on fulfilling the other requisite criteria, against the
vacancies available as on the date of assessment. If found suitable, they will be
considered for promotion with ante dated seniority, from the original due date. Financial
benefits will be given only from the date of assumption of charge of the higher post.
Sample cases are indicated below:

Case I

Date of release to pursue EPGDM at IMI, Delhi : 18.5.10


Date of release of promotion orders (Gr V) : 16.11.10
Date of issuance of promotion order to the Officer : 4.10.11
and assumption of charge in Grade V
Seniority in Grade V : 1.7.09
Due date of confirmation in Grade V : 4.10.12
Normal due date of eligibility to Grade VI under : 1.7.12
IMS
Next earliest date available for promotion : 1.7.13
[date of consideration for promotion]
Seniority to be counted wef (if promoted) (IMS) : 1.7.12

66
Case II

Date of issuance of promotion order to the Officer : 5.2.11


and assumption of charge in Grade III
Seniority in Grade III : 1.7.09
Date of release to pursue EPGDM at MDI,Gurgaon : 9.4.11
Date of joining back the Division : 29.9.12
Due date of confirmation in Grade III : 29.7.13
Normal due date of eligibility to Grade IV under : 1.7.12
IMS
Next earliest date available for promotion : 1.1.14
[date of consideration for promotion]

Date of joining back the Division : 29.9.12
Due date of confirmation in Grade III : 29.7.13
Normal due date of eligibility to Grade IV under : 1.1.13
IMS
Next earliest date available for promotion : 1.1.14
[date of consideration for promotion]
Seniority to be counted wef (if promoted) (IMS) : 1.1.13

Note: In all the above cases, Financial Benefits will be given from the actual date of
assumption of charge of the promoted post.

b) PROMOTIONS UNDER CPP

Officers who are due for promotion under CPP will be assessed wef the original due date
of promotion. However, promotion orders will be issued after their confirmation in the
existing Grade. Seniority will be reckoned wef the original due date of promotion.
Financial benefits will be granted wef the date of assumption of charge of the higher
post only (i.e after confirmation).

18.11 Grant of Financial Benefits in respect of Officers sponsored for Higher studies, whose
promotion orders were issued after they joined back for duties on completion of the
sponsorship:

i) Promotion Orders in respect of Officers who are Sponsored / Deputed for Higher Studies
would be issued only after they join back for duties, w.e.f the original due date of
promotion, with Seniority & Financial Benefits, provided promotion of other Officers in
the Division / Office were effected on the due date of promotion itself [i.e issuance of
Promotion Order on or before 1st Jan / 1st July];

ii) If normal promotions in a year have been effected later than the actual due date of
Promotion and Officers in the Divisions / Offices have been extended Financial Benefits
w.e.f the actual date of assumption of charge, Financial Benefits in respect of the
Officers Sponsored / Deputed would also be extended from the date from which the
benefits were extended to the other Officers who were in the Divisions / Offices. An
illustrative case is as under:

67
a) Date of release from the Division for higher studies : 16.7.11

b) Period of Sponsorship : 2011-2013

c) Due date of promotion from Grade - II to III : 1.7.12

d) Promotion order issued to other Officers who were : 26.9.12


in the Division
i) Seniority : 1.7.12

ii) Financial Benefits : 26.9.12


e) Date of reporting back to duty after completing studies : 17.7.13

f) Date of issuance of promotion order to the Officer : 17.7.13


g) Date of Seniority : 1.7.12
h) Grant of Financial Benefits : 26.9.12

iii) In any year, if effecting promotions is delayed due to administrative reasons and
Financial Benefits are extended w.e.f the actual due date of promotion, the same would
also be applicable in respect of the Officers Sponsored / Deputed for Higher Studies by
the Company;

iv) In respect of Officers of the categories covered in para 18.10, instructions contained in
the said para will be applicable.

19. OFFICERS WHO COULD NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR PROMOTION DUE TO NON -
AVAILABILITY OF VACANCIES OR NOT FOUND SUITABLE BY THE SELECTION
COMMITTEE

19.1 Officers who qualify for promotion w.e.f. 1st July under IMS / DPC, but are not promoted
on account of lack of vacancies, can be considered for selection for promotion w.e.f. 1st
January of the subsequent year, under the same mode, against vacancies arising w.e.f.
1st January of the subsequent year, along with fresh candidates who would become
eligible w.e.f. that date. Similarly, Officers who qualify for promotion w.e.f. 1st January
under IMS / DPC, but are not promoted on account of lack of vacancies, can be
considered for selection for promotion w.e.f. 1st July of the same year, under the same
mode, against vacancies arising w.e.f. that date, alongwith fresh candidates who would
become eligible we.f. that date. The promotions will be effected subject to meeting
other stipulated requirements.

19.2 Officers who fail in the selection for promotion under IMS / DPC w.e.f. 1st January / July
will not be eligible to be considered for promotion under the same mode w.e.f. the
subsequent 1st July / January respectively. However, Officers who fail in the selection
for promotion under IMS w.e.f. 1st January / July will be eligible to be considered under
DPC w.e.f. the subsequent 1st July / January respectively, provided they are otherwise
eligible for DPC w.e.f. that date and meet the stipulated requirements.

68
20. SUPERCESSION OF SC/ST EMPLOYEES IN PROMOTION

Prior approval of the next higher authority is to be taken in cases of supersession of


SC/ST employees in promotion. Accordingly, in cases where GM / ED is the Competent
Authority to effect promotions, supersession is to be approved by the MD and where MD
is the Competent Authority, supersession is to be approved by the Chairman. This
would be applicable for Vacancy Based Promotions and not for promotions under IMS.

21. GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR ALL PROMOTIONS (EXCEPT FOR CPP)

21.1 SPECIAL CONSIDERATION IN RESPECT OF EMPLOYEES BELONGING TO THE


SC/ST CATEGORY

As per rules, Orders of Reservation are applicable for effecting Promotions to posts in
the Lowest Rung of Group-A (i.e Grade-II in HAL). Promotion to posts in Grade-II is
effected under IMS Mode also where reservation is applicable as these promotions are
effected based on sanctioned vacancies and performance in Written Test / Interview.

Relaxation of 10% to SC/ST candidates in the minimum Qualifying Marks need to be


applied uniformly in the Written Test, Interview and in the Aggregate, as under:

Particulars Minimum Qualifying Marks for SC/ST (10% relaxation in the


IMS (UR/OBC) Minimum Qualifying
Marks)
Written Test 60 out of 100 54 out of 100
Interview 18.75 (75%) out of 25 16.88 out of 25
Total 85 out of 100 76.5 out of 100

21.2 The Committee will draw up a panel of selected candidates in the order of merit /
seniority, as the case may be. These select panels (Promotion / Internal Merit
Selection) are valid for a period of one year from the date of meeting of the selection
committee and not from the date of approval of the recommendations of the Selection
Committee by the Appointing Authority.

21.3 Although the Appointing Authority will as a rule, pay due regard to the
recommendations of the Departmental promotion committee, the Committees are
purely advisory bodies and the responsibilities for granting promotions and making
appointments are that of the Appointing Authority only.

22. APPEALS

Non-selection to a post, promotion to which is by merit is not appealable. Any employee


who is aggrieved by an order of promotion to a post, promotion to which is by seniority,
on the ground that he has been superseded, may appeal through the Appointing
Authority to the next higher authority. While forwarding the appeal, the Appointing
Authority will enter a separate note giving reasons why the decision was taken. The
appeal should be routed through the HR Department, which will enter their comments.
The decision taken by the authority higher to the Appointing Authority will be
communicated to the employee concerned through the HR Department. Reasons for
rejecting the appeal should be communicated in brief to the employee.

69
23. PROBATION AND CONFIRMATION

i) Every Officer promoted to the higher Grade either by Departmental Promotion / Internal
Merit Selection / Career Plan Promotion will be on probation in that Grade for a period
ONE YEAR from the date they assume charge of the higher post;

ii) If the Officer does not acquire the standards required of him or his conduct and work
are considered unsatisfactory during the period of probation, the period of probation
may be extended at the discretion of the Appointing Authority. The reasons for
extending the period of probation are to be communicated to the Officer concerned in
writing. The Officer will be treated as on probation till they are confirmed. The Officer is
deemed as confirmed in their post, only if they are intimated to that effect in writing;

iii) In the case of Officers in Grade-I and above, the period of probation is to be closely
watched and monitored by the appropriate Initiating, Reviewing Authority. Deficiencies
found, if any, should be communicated in writing to the probationer concerned and this
should be indicated in the Sixth / Eleventh monthly probationary reports;

iv) If the performance of the probationer is not found to be satisfactory in spite of


intimating the deficiencies noticed in writing, the Appointing Authority may consider
extending the probationary period and then decide the question of confirmation of the
Officer in the present Grade on the basis of their performance during the extended
period of probation. If at the end of such extended period, the Officer’s performance is
still found to be unsatisfactory, they should be reverted to their lower post;

v) In the cases where the period of probation is extended, the Officer whose probation has
been extended will lose the seniority by a period equivalent to the period by which the
probation was extended. The due date of increment will also be postponed in the event
of extension of probation period. The revised due date of increment thereafter will be
reckoned with reference to the actual date of confirmation;

vi) Cases of Officers who are unable to perform duties during their probation satisfactorily,
on account of long sickness / deputation / study leave will be considered on merits
individually;

vii) In the case of an Officer who is charge-sheeted or whose conduct is under investigation
or against whom a CBI / Criminal case is registered, during probationary period, his
confirmation in the post to which he was promoted, kept in abeyance till the conclusion
of the proceedings initiated against him. If they are fully exonerated of the charges,
they may be confirmed in the post from the due date, if their performance was
otherwise satisfactory during the probationary period. In case the Officer is found
guilty, appropriate punishment commensurate with the gravity of charges has been
imposed, the fact that the Officer continues to be on probation should also be taken into
account while deciding about the penalty to be imposed.

24. INCREMENTS FOR OFFICERS

24.1 One notional increment @ 3% of the basic Pay in the pre-promoted Scale will be added
to the Basic Pay drawn in the pre-promoted Scale as on the date of Promotion. The
resultant amount will be rounded up to the next multiple of Rs.10/-. In case amount so
arrived at is less than the minimum of the promoted Scale, the pay will be fixed at the
minimum of the promoted Scale. Other existing provisions for pay fixation on promotion
(like re-fixation on the date of Annual Increment) would continue to be applicable.

24.2 In order to eliminate the occurrence of anomalies on account of pay fixation on


promotion between 2 Officers, the following methodology would be adopted in fixing the
pay on Promotion:

a) Pay would be fixed in the promoted Scale with effect from the date of promotion after
reckoning the Annual Increment, if any, which would be due on that date in the pre-
promoted scale;

b) In case where the date of promotion and the date of Annual Increment do not coincide,
the pay would be re-fixed on the date on which the Officer would have drawn his Annual
increment in the pre-promoted scale, as if the Officer was promoted w.e.f. that date,
after reckoning the Annual Increment which would have been due to him as on that
date in the pre-promoted Scale had he not been promoted earlier. His next Annual
Increment would be due after one year from the date of such re-fixation of pay;

c) In case the pay on re-fixation as at para (b) above comes to the same stage in the
promoted Scale as was the pay fixed originally as at Para (a) above, re-fixation of pay
as at Para (b) is not to be done. In such a case, the Officer concerned would draw his
next Annual Increment after one year from the original date of promotion;

d) With the introduction of the above system for fixation of pay on Promotion, the system
of permitting Officers to postpone the date of joining on promotion, upto a maximum of
three months from the date of promotion, in order to derive the benefit of Annual
Increment, if any, due within this period of three months in pay fixation on promotion,
stands withdrawn;

e) The above methodology of pay fixation on Promotion was effected from 1.01.97.

Example

In cases of Officers promoted w.e.f. 1st July of the year, whose Annual Increment before
Promotion was due on 1st January, the Pay on Promotion would initially be fixed w.e.f.
1st July. Thereafter, the Pay would be re-fixed w.e.f. 1st January of the next year (i.e.
date of Annual Increment in the pre-promoted Grade, as if he was promoted from that
date), provided the re-fixation would be beneficial. Such re-fixation of pay w.e.f. 1st
January is not to be construed as grant of ‘Annual Increment’. The first Annual
Increment in the promoted Grade will be granted w.e.f. 1st January of the subsequent
year, provided the Officer is confirmed in the promoted Grade effective from 1st January
of the year or earlier. Otherwise, the Annual Increment will be granted w.e.f. 1st of the
month (after January) from which he is confirmed.

71
24.3 Annual Increments in the respective Time Scales of pay will accrue to the employees
automatically, unless it is withheld or postponed in the following circumstances:

i) As a penalty imposed in accordance with the HAL Conduct, Discipline and Appeal Rules
as a punishment;

ii) As a result of leave without pay exceeding 15 days in a year reckoned from the date of
last increment.

24.4 Where penalty is imposed, the orders imposing penalty are to indicate the period for
which the increment is postponed and whether it is to have cumulative effect or not.

24.5 The first spell of leave without pay, taken by an employee shall not result in
postponement of his increment. Any further leave without pay availed by the employee
will result in postponement of his increment.

24.6 In case of postponement of increment due to leave without pay exceeding 15 days in a
year, the increment will be postponed during the 1st year. In the subsequent year the
increment will be brought back to the original date unless postponed as a result of
further leave without pay or as a measure of punishment.

24.7 Where an Officer is imposed with the punishment of postponement of increment without
cumulative effect, the procedure outlined above will be followed.

24.8 Where the penalty of postponement increment with cumulative effect if imposed, the
increment date is postponed as per the orders of the Disciplinary Authority. It will not
be restored to the original date in the second and subsequent years.

24.9 Maternity Leave availed of by Women employees of the Company, shall not postpone
the normal service increment.

72
25. RELAXATION

The Managing Directors, Executive Directors and General Managers will have the
powers to make appointments to posts in relaxation of the minimum standard
prescribed to the extent indicated below:-

Relaxation Posts for which


Educational qualifications prescribed for Direct Recruitment Grade-I & below
may be relaxed to the standards indicated in the rules for
promotion to the post in question, provided the individual
has the corresponding length of experience.

Prescribed period of experience may be relaxed by not


more than two years for effecting promotion
Minimum experience prescribed may be relaxed up to two Grade-III & below
years, subject to the condition that no one without
experience is appointed except in posts for which
recruitment of individuals without experience is authorized
under the rules.
Upper age limit prescribed in the rules may be relaxed up Grade-III & below
to two years.

These powers will be exercised by the Executive Directors/General Managers only if


candidates with the qualifications and experience prescribed in the rules are not
available and ED/GMs are satisfied that the relaxations will not adversely affect
efficiency.

The Managing Directors are authorized to make relaxations in Age, Educational


Qualifications and Experience, to the extent necessary, for appointment to post below
Grade-IV, whether the appointment is to be made by Direct Recruitment or by
Promotion.

Note

i. Cases of individuals appointed to posts below Grade – IV by Direct Recruitment


or by Promotion in relaxation of the prescribed standards are to be reported to
the Chairman every month indicating precisely:

a) The relaxation granted;


b) The reasons for doing so;
c) Whether the relaxation was approved by the GM / ED / MD

Appointments made by ED / GM in relaxation of the rules should likewise be


reported to the concerned MD.

ii. All cases of relaxation of rules for appointment to posts in Grade – IV and above
are to be referred to the Chairman for prior approval;

iii. Relaxation of qualification for Promotion in the Company is to be granted only


once in the career of an employee at the level of Whole Time Directors (MD/FD)
for posts upto Gr.III. Only exceptional cases deserving relaxation of qualification
for the second time are to be referred to Corporate Office for obtaining specific
approval of Chairman.

73
26. GRANT OF PERSONAL SCALES OF PAY TO OFFICERS IN GRADE-III to VI NOT
POSSESSING REQUISITE EDUCTIONAL QUALIFICATION FOR PROMOTIONS

26.1 Every year on a selective basis, higher Scales of Pay are granted to a limited number
(maximum of six only) of Officers in Grade-III to VI, who do not possess the requisite
minimum educational qualification prescribed for promotion, as personal to them in the
existing posts, subject to the following conditions:

a) they should not be of less than 45 years of age;

b) they should not possess the prescribed minimum educational qualification for
promotion to the next higher post;

c) they should have put in a minimum of 4 years of service in their existing grade;

d) they should have been rated at least “ABOVE AVERAGE” in the Performance
Appraisal Reports consistently during the last four years;

e) this benefit should be admitted only once during the career of the Officer;

f) the Management may at its discretion revert the Officer who was granted the
higher scale of pay as personal to him to the lower scale of pay, if the Officer
does not maintain the requisite standards of performance on the job;

g) the Officer granted higher scale of pay as personal to him will continue to hold
the post in the lower scale which he was holding prior to grant of higher scale of
pay on a personal basis and will enjoy all the benefits applicable to the higher
scale including seniority.

26.2 PROCEDURE

i) Employees fulfilling the conditions of eligibility are called for interview by the
Departmental promotion Committee at Corporate Office on a selective basis. Based on
their performance on the job as reflected in their Performance Appraisal Reports and
their performance in the Interview, the Departmental Promotion Committee will select
Officers who are considered meritorious enough to be granted the next higher Scale of
Pay as personal to them. The names of Officers cleared by the Departmental Promotion
Committee for grant of higher Pay Scale as personal to them under this procedure
would be interpolated in the select list (panel) for promotion in the concerned discipline.
Orders of promotion will be issued granting them higher Scales of Pay when the Officer
junior to him in the select panel is to be promoted to the higher Grade on a regular
basis.

74
27. REMOVAL OF SALARY DISPARITIES ON PAY FIXATION – OFFICERS

In order to remove disparity in pay of Senior Officers who draw less pay than their
Junior Officers who are promoted at a later date, the pay of the Senior Officers should
be stepped up to equal that of the pay fixed for the Junior Officer promoted
subsequently. The stepping up should be done with effect from the date of promotion
of the Junior Officer subject to the following conditions:

i) Both the Senior and the Junior Officer should belong to the same discipline / sub-
discipline as the case may be before and after promotion;

ii) Both Senior and the Junior Officer should have been promoted from the same Scale to
the higher identical Scale;

iii) The disparity in pay between the Senior and the Junior Officer should have arisen
directly as a result of the application of normal pay fixation Rules and not attributable to
extraneous factors such as Junior having received any advance increments at the time
of appointment or deferment of increment on account of absence without pay etc;

iv) On the date of promotion of the Senior Officer from the lower Grade, the Senior should
have been receiving equal or higher pay, as compared to that of the Junior employee
who was promoted subsequently;

v) The subsequent date of increment of the Senior Officer would be reckoned with effect
from the date on which his pay was stepped up to equal that of the Junior. This would
not, however, alter their inter-se-seniority in the higher Grade which would be reckoned
with reference to the respective dates of appointment to the higher Grade;

vi) This disparity in pay should not have arisen between the Junior and the Senior officer as
a result of appointment of either of them through open selection;

vii) The rules of stepping up of pay would not apply to (i) cases of disparity, if any, arising
between promoted Officers and Officers appointed through open selection; and (ii)
cases of disparity, if any, arising as a result of fixation of pay of Junior in the revised
Scale of pay as compared to the Senior in the pre-revised Scale of pay;

27.2 Decided to permit comparison for the purpose of stepping up of pay with any Junior
Officer in the same Grade, in the Division / Complex / Company (depending on the
Grade), irrespective of their discipline / sub-discipline. Officers promoted to Grade-VII
and above can continue to make the said comparison on a company wide basis. Those
promoted to Grades-IV, V & VI can make the comparison within the Complex only. In
respect of Officers promoted to Grade-II and III, the comparison is to be restricted
within the Division / Office concerned.

27.3 Such adjustment of pay is to be effected on the basis of representations, if any, made
in this behalf by the concerned Officer within a period of one year from the date such
disparity in pay has occurred.

27.4 Since the rules on fixation of pay on promotion are the same for any channel of
promotion i.e., DPC or IMS or open selection, if an Officer is promoted to the higher
Grade through open selection and gets less pay than his Junior promoted subsequently
or if an Officer promoted through DPC gets less pay than his Junior promoted through
open selection, stepping up of pay of the Senior should be allowed provided other
conditions for stepping up of pay are fulfilled.

29. SENIORITY

29.1 Seniority of persons appointed by Direct Recruitment as well as Promotion is to be


determined with reference to the date of their joining the post for which they are
selected. If two persons join on the same day, one in the forenoon and the other in the
afternoon, the one who joined in the forenoon becomes Senior. If the one or more
persons join the same Grade on the same forenoon or afternoon, their inter-se-seniority
is to be fixed as follows:

a) On the basis of the Marks awarded by the Selection Committee, if the selection was
made by Direct Recruitment;

b) In the case of personnel promoted by Departmental Promotion and / or Internal Merit


Selection in the same discipline, seniority will be fixed with reference to their inter-se-
seniority in the Grade from which they are promoted

Note : Officers in Grade–I and above posted from Manufacturing / Production,


Management Services, Computer Systems and other disciplines to Systems Audit Group
in the Divisions / Offices will retain their seniority in the parent discipline. For this
purpose, their names are to be shown in the seniority list in their parent disciplines only
(not in Finance/Accounts Discipline) with a remark that the Officers concerned have
been posted to the Systems Audit Group. They will continue to be considered for
promotions in their parent discipline, subject to their eligibility. These Officers may also
be reverted to parent disciplines after they have completed tenure of 3 years. However,
the Management reserves the rights to extend or curtail the period.

c) In the order in which the names of the selected employees are arranged by the
Departmental Promotion Committee, if the appointment is by Promotion to posts in
Grade–I & below.

29.2 In the cases referred at (a) above, the inter-se-seniority of persons who have secured
the same number of Marks is to be determined with reference to their age, the older
being senior to the younger.

29.3 Between employees appointed to the same Grade by Direct Recruitment and by
Promotion on the same forenoon / afternoon of the same date, those appointed by
Promotion are to be deemed senior to those appointed by Direct Recruitment.

29.4 The inter-se-seniority of employees promoted by Internal Merit Selection or


Departmental Promotion to all posts in Grade–II and above is to be reckoned from the
effective date indicated in the orders. However, where the assumption of charge of the
post to which an employee is promoted is delayed for more than one month for reasons
attributable to the employee, his seniority is to be reckoned only from the date on
which he assumes charge of the post. The inter-se-seniority of Officers promoted to
Grade–IV by DPC/IMS on the same day in the same discipline is to be determined with
reference to their inter-se-seniority in Grade–III. This will not apply to Time Scale
Promotion.

29.5 For purposes of probation and salary in the higher posts, the promotion will be deemed
to be effective from the date of actual assumption of charge of higher post.

29.6 Seniority lists Grade wise are to be drawn up and maintained up to-date. Any employee
who is aggrieved with the seniority assigned to him is entitled to appeal to the
Appointing Authority through proper channel. A common seniority roster in respect of
all Officers in Grade – VI and above will be maintained at the Corporate Office. In

79
preparing such rosters, name of Officers on deputation and Officers on contract will be
shown distinctly.

29.7 The office of the Managing Directors will maintain seniority lists of Officers in Grade-III,
IV & V of its constituent Divisions. The seniority particulars of the Officers in Grade-VI
and above will be maintained by Corporate Office on a Company-wide basis.

29.8 All Appointments / Promotions made by the Managing Directors to posts in Grade–VI
are to be communicated to Corporate Office duly indicating the date of appointment as
well as inter-se-seniority in case more than one Officer has been appointed / promoted
to the Grade on the same date.

29.9 In addition, cases of postponement of Officers in Grade–VI and above, due to extension
of Probation are also to be intimated to the Corporate Office for incorporation in the
seniority list of officers in Grade–VI and above maintained by Corporate Office on a
Company wide basis.

29.10 Seniority of employees transferred from one Trade to another in the same Group at the
request of the employee, will be reckoned from the date of his appointment to the new
Trade. This should be made clear to the employee and an undertaking obtained.

29.11 Seniority of employees transferred by the Management on its own from one Trade to
another in the same Group will remain unaltered i.e., will be protected.

29.12 All appointments to new Trades either at the instance of the Management or at the
request of the employee should be effected only against Direct Recruitment quota of
posts.

29.13 Seniority of employees in Grade–II and below transferred at their request from one
Division to the other on as-is-basis will be reckoned from the date of reporting at the
new Division for all purposes including allotment of quarters, except Time Scale
Promotion.

29.14 The Division / Office forwarding the request of employees for transfer from one Division
to the other should obtain a written undertaking from the employee that he agrees that
the transfer, if agreed to, will be on loss of seniority in the Grade / Group for all
purposes. A copy of such undertaking should be enclosed to the request.

29.15 Employee transferred from one Division to the other at the instance of the Management
will, however be eligible for protection of seniority in the Grade / Group

29.16 Officers in Grade–V transferred at their request from one Division to other within the
same Complex will not lose their seniority as seniority for Promotion to posts in Grade –
VI is reckoned on a Complex-Wide basis. Similarly, Officers in Grade–VI and above
transferred at their request from one Division / Office/ Complex to the other will not
lose their seniority as promotions to posts in Grade – VII and above are reckoned on
Company–Wide basis.

29.17 FIXATION OF SENIORITY OF OFFICERS ON DEPUTATION

The seniority of the deputationists or of an individual who is appointed in the Company


on immediate absorption basis in the post in which he is absorbed is to be reckoned
from the date on which he was appointed to that post on that Grade on deputation.
However, where an Officer on deputation is absorbed in a Grade higher than that in
which he was on deputation, his seniority in the higher Grade is to be reckoned from

80
the date of his absorption in the company. The seniority of Officers on deputation who
are appointed to posts in the higher Grade on an officiating basis, is to be reckoned with
effect from the date on which they are appointed to posts in the higher Group by the
Competent Authority and not from the date on which they are appointed to posts in the
higher Grade on an officiating basis.

29.18 With the object of reducing the number of surplus Direct Workmen in certain Trades, a
scheme for payment of Cash Incentive of Rs. 2000 /- to the surplus Direct Workmen
volunteering for re-training and accepting transfer to another Direct Trade in which
additional personnel are required is in operation. Seniority of the re-trained surplus
employees in Direct Trade vis-à-vis the employees in the Direct Trades to which the re-

date of his original appointment to the lower Grade/ Group to which he has
subsequently been demoted
