EMPLOYMENT IN GOVERNMENT SECTOR IN KERALA


As per available information there are over 5 lakhs people employed in various government departments in Kerala. Of late media reports continuously about the hardships faced by the government in paying their salary and other benifits in time. While it is the dream of the people to secure employment in the government, political parties reported to have put their best efforts to induct their near and dear for these jobs. Now, the democratically elected government may consider the existing financial situation of the state and restructure the government employment system prevailing in the state in the following manner.

1. Introduce voluntary retirement scheme in the state. Try to bring down the staff by 10%, or more, by VRS.

2. Suspend fresh recruitment for a minimum period of three years. In the case of emergency requirements suitable staff may be got transferred from other departments.

3. Anyone found involved in corruptive practices may be dismissed forthwith.

4. In order to avoid external influence in staff recruitment, a five member commission may be appointed. It may be ensured that all the members are not connected with any political parties. Departments concerned may send their requirements to the commission who after getting convinced may finally forward it to the PSC.

Since the prevailing situation is likely to continue for long and becoming more and more unbearable for the government, it is expected, may heed to the above suggestions.

DO WE NEED TRADE UNIONS ANY MORE?

Image
Finally the communist government have forced to impose curbs on the Trade Unions in the state to mitigate the unbearable actions taken by them. Trade Unions have come into being when employees were put on hardships by the employers. The time have been changed since then. Now it is our own government and our own laws. All safety, security and welfare measures are ensured for the employee of all types. No third party is now required to safeguard justice for employees. Appropriate forums are established for employees to register their complaints either singularly or jointly. Therefore, as far as employees are concerned, they do not need any assistance from Trade Unions today. Trade Unions are now functioning as power centres of political parties. If the government is willing to stand with the people, then they can ban all Trade Unions activities in the state/country. Trade Unions today make negative contributions to the economy of the state and the country as a whole. Infact t
