- Guidelines for engaging of paid substitutes against leave / absentee Gr.D and Postman Staff – Modification regarding.
- DG Posts No.10-7/2001-PR-II Dated 2.9.2008
References have been received from different quarters / Staff Unions regarding review of guidelines issued vide letter no dated 15.3.2004, in the matter of engaging of paid substitutes against leave / absentee Gr.D and Postmen Staff.
It has been noticed that in many cases the mails received in a post office could not be delivered by the Postman on the same day due to sudden absenteeism, long spell of leaves and long beat lengths.
With a view to streamline the delivery and ensuring timely delivery of mail, following guidelines are issued for making substitute arrangement.
The Divisional Heads / Gazetted Postmasters should engage paid substitutes (GDS) against the vacant / absentee / leave post of Group 'D' / Postman in Departmental Post Offices having a combined staff strength exceeding four Gr.'D' / Postman for a period not exceeding ninety days. However, the permission of Head of Circle / Region is mandatory if the arrangement of the paid substitute against the vacant / leave / absentee Postman / Gr.D exceeds ninety days.
The other conditions on the matter will remain unchanged till further order.
Yours faithfully,
