Employment on the basis of false/fake caste certificates

EMPLOYMENT ON THE BASIS OF FAKE CASTE CERTIFICATES

Complaints are received from time to time regarding employment in Government Ministries/Departments on the basis of false/fake caste certificates, which are normally forwarded to the concerned Ministries/Departments for appropriate action.

Department of Personnel and Training’s Office Memorandum of 19.5.1993 provides that wherever it is found that a Government servant, who was not qualified or was ineligible in terms of the recruitment rules etc., for initial recruitment in service, or had furnished false information, or produced a false certificate in order to secure appointment, should not be retained in service.

If she/he is a probationer or a temporary Government servant, she/he should be discharged or her/his services should be terminated. If she/he has become a permanent Government servant, an inquiry as prescribed in Rule 14 of CCS (CCA) Rules, 1965 be held and if the charges are proved, the Government servant should be removed or dismissed from service.

The Government had undertaken an exercise to collect information about appointments secured on the basis of false/ fake certificates in the year 2018. In February 2018, Ministries/Departments were requested to collect information about appointments made on the basis of fake/ false caste certificates and follow up action taken thereon.

As per the information received, more than 700 cases of fake/false caste certificates have been reported by the Ministries/Departments, including in its attached and subordinate offices.

Out of these, in 68 cases, employees have reportedly been dismissed/terminated from service by the concerned cadre controlling authorities.

Clarification Regarding Maternity Leave Incentive Scheme

November 23, 2018 by Admin

Clarification regarding Maternity Leave Incentive Scheme

Ministry of Labour & Employment
Clarification regarding Maternity Leave Incentive Scheme

In a section of media, there have been some reports about Maternity Leave Incentive Scheme. In this regard, the Ministry of Labour & Employment has clarified the following –

Background- (i) The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 applies to establishments employing 10 or more than 10 persons in Factories, Mines, Plantation, Shops & Establishments and other entities.

The main purpose of this Act is to regulate the employment of women in certain establishments for certain period before and after child birth and to provide maternity benefit and certain other benefits.

The Act was amended through the Maternity Benefit (Amendment) Act, 2017 which, inter alia, has increased the paid maternity leave to women employees from 12 weeks to 26 weeks.

While the implementation of the provision is good in Public Sector, there are reports that it is not good in Private Sector and in contract jobs. There is also a wide perception that private entities are not encouraging women employees because if they are employed, they may have to provide maternity benefit to them, particularly 26 weeks of paid holiday.

In addition, the Ministry of Labour & Employment is also getting complaints from various quarters that when the employers come to know that their women employee is in the family way or applies for maternity leave, the contracts are terminated on some flimsy grounds.

There have been several representations before the Labour Ministry on how the extended maternity leave has become a deterrent for female employees who are asked to quit or retrenched on flimsy grounds before they go on maternity leave.

Therefore, the Ministry of Labour & Employment is working on an incentive scheme wherein 7 weeks’ wages would be reimbursed to employers who employ women workers with wage ceiling upto Rs. 15000/- and provide the maternity benefit of 26 weeks paid leave, subject to certain conditions.

It is estimated that approximately an amount of Rs. 400 crores would be the financial implication for Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment for implementing the proposed incentive scheme.

Major Impact: The proposed Scheme, if approved and implemented shall ensure the women in this country an equal access to employment and other approved benefits alongwith adequate safety and secure environment.

Also, the women shall continue to bear the major share of household work as well as child care. The work places will be more and more responsive to the family needs of the working women.

Current Stage of the Proposal:
There are some media reports that this Scheme has been approved/notified. However, it is clarified that Ministry of Labour & Employment is in the process of obtaining necessary budgetary grant and approvals of Competent Authorities.

The reports that it will be funded from Labour Welfare Cess, is also incorrect, as no such cess exists under this Ministry.
