TEN YEARS’ BENEFIT FOR PG TEACHERS

As per Memo No. 181-SE/5B-1/09 dated 08.10.2009 of School Education Department,
Rule 3. Fixation of pay the employee after after obtaining non-functional movement (18 year’s benefit) or non-functional increments (10/20 years of service) and other issues:
(i) The Finance Department, Government of West Bengal in its Memorandum No. 2728-F dated 7th April, 2009 (Part – 2) has clarified the matter as follows:-
1. In the case of non-functional movement (18 years benefit) or non-functional increment (10/20 years benefit) an employee may opt for the same on the date of entitlement or on the next 1st July, the date of accrual of annual increment.
2. In case the employee opts for the benefit on the date of entitlement he / she will get one increment on that date, but he / she will not be entitled to next annual increment on the next 1st July unless he / she completes 6 months of service. In other words – if the date of entitlement falls during 1st July to 1st January, the employee after having the benefit of one additional increment, on the date of entitlement, will get annual increment on the next 1st July, but if the date of entitlement falls during 2nd January to 30th June, the employee after having the benefit of one additional increment, will not be entitled to the annual increment on 1st July of the same year; he / she will, however, get the annual increment on the 1st July of the next year.
3. In case the employee opts for the benefit on the date of accrual of annual increment, on 1st July he / she will get the annual increment first and then he / she will get the additional increment for non-functional benefit on the basic pay arrived at after getting the annual increment.
