FAMILY CARE LEAVE/ PARENTAL LEAVE:

1.     In place of Child Care Leave,  Parental Leave or preferably FAMILY CARE LEAVE should be introduced and Husband and Wife both should be entitled to avail 365 days' FAMILY CARE LEAVE in entire service for looking after their children and other family-members' needs. In today's compelling circumstances, sometimes Father and sometimes Mother has to take care of the children and other family members' needs. Sometimes, such as in case of visiting the Hospital in ailment or admission to higher classes etc., Father is required to take care of the Child. Likewise, Male employee has to look after his parents in old age, ailments and other compelling circumstances. This point should be given due importance as parents (of Employees) also need to be taken care of in the old age.

2.     More importantly, it will serve the purpose for Single Male Parents also as they have their genuine requirement of FAMILY CARE LEAVE as they have to look after their children single handedly.

NOTE:

The Govt. has announced to set up the 7th CPC for making some political gains in the coming State Assembly Elections but it will have to be seen when 7th  CPC will be implemented given the bad phase the economy and the Govt.'s finances are going through. The General Elections will be held in May, 2014 and it is unlikely that the new Govt. will implement the 7th CPC w.e .f. Jan, 2016 and at the same time what excuses it will make to postpone its implementation.

2. It is likely that Interim Relief may be announced or 50% DA may be merged to Basic Pay before April, 2014.

EARNED LEAVE along with HALF PAY LEAVE :

As per the recommendations of 6^th CPC, Teachers should have been given the benefit of HALF PAY leave in addition to the Earned Leave. The relevant portion of 6^th CPC recommendation is reproduced below:

PAGE NO. 278 OF 6^th CPC REPORT:

“From 1/9/1981, Teachers, Principals and Head Masters working in schools and from 28/7/1984, Librarians, Laboratory Assistants and Watermen working in schools have not been  allowed the facility of half pay leave. This facility needs to be restored for these categories as the present rules place them in difficulties in times of sickness, etc. These categories should be made  eligible for half pay leave on par with other Central Government employees.”

But the Teachers were denied the benefit  of HALF PAY leave in addition to the Earned Leave and HALF PAY Leave was introduced in place of EARNED LEAVE. IT IS EXPECTED THAT THEIR DEMAND FOR HALF PAY LEAVE ALONG WITH THE EARNED LEAVE WILL BE ACCEPTED.
