Sub: Revision of rates in case of Group ‘C’ Paramedical Staff engaged on contract basis

As you are aware that substantial number of Paramedical Staff in Group ‘C’ are now being engaged on contract basis in almost all the Zonal and Divisional Railway Hospitals as also in the Health Units on the Indian Railways.

It has been brought to the notice of this federation that the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi has been paying them remunerations as are applicable to their counterparts regular government employees working in Paramedical Categories, however, the remunerations, being paid to Paramedical Staff engaged on contract basis in the Railways, are much lesser.

In this context, it is worthmentioniflg that, the rates of Medical Practioners engaged on contract basis have since been revised in terms of Railway Board’s letter No.2014/E(GR)ll/1/1 dated 12.03.2014.

It would, therefore, be quite appropriate that the remunerations rates for Non-Gazetted Paramedical Staff be also revised without further delay so as to avoid discontentment among these categories of staff.

An early action in the matter shall be highly appreciated.

Yours faithfully,

Sd/-
