Civil Aviation Authority employees barred from postings at home station
Pakistan Civil Aviation
Authority has amended its law for transfers and staff TA/DA and barred all
employees from claiming home station postings and transfers.
A notification issued by the PCAA says female
workers will be posted at their home or near to home station. “However, no
female employee can claim home station posting as a matter of right and can be
posted anywhere in Pakistan on service exigencies,” it reads.
Moreover, the self TA/DA facility has also ended by the
higher authorities.
According to the previous law, “Full TA/DA (for married
employee) and self TA/DA (for bachelor / single employee) shall be admissible
to personnel whose posting order issued due to operational reasons or after
spending minimum of three years at a location, whereas, no TA/DA would be
admissible if posting order is issued on compassionate / request basis.”
After the amendment, the competent authority
will decide the admissibility of TA/DA at the time of approving postings and
transfers considering the tenure of posting, service exigencies or on a request
basis.
In July, PCAA had reduced the perks, medical and
other allowances of the retired employees.
A special grant for the retired employees for
constructing their houses was ended. The authority cut pensions of retired
additional directors up to Rs30,000.
The decision for cutting the perks of the
retired workers was taken by the PCAA board in its 192nd session. The medical
facility was also ended for parents and children of the retired employees.
