(iii) 'The NIT should also have been placed on State websiteviz.http://Jaktenders. nic in.

Report of the Committee constituted vide Govt. Order No. 1355-General Administration Department of 2006 dated 07-11-2006

regarding GHSNRS for the Employees of PSU's.

1. Introduction:

I. I Vide Government Order No. 1355-GAD of2006 dated 07-1 I~2006,a Committee of the following officers, under the chairmanship of FinancialCommissioner (Home) was constituted to examine various issues involved in

• the Golden Handshake/ Voluntary Retirement Scheme for the Employees ofPSUs and submit a report to the Government :-

1. Financial Commissioner (Home) Chairman2. Principal Secretary, Agri. Prod. Deptt. Member3. Principal Secretary, Planning & Dev. Deptt. Member4. Principal Secretary, Power Dev. Deptt. Member5. Commissioner/Secretary, Finance Deptt. Member6. Commissioner/Secretary, I&C Deptt. Member7. In view of the fact that some preliminary work had earlier

been done by Finance Department, Director Codes was asso-ciated with this Committee as Member Secretary by the Chair-man of the Committee.

1.2 The Committee held deliberations on the subject on 16-11-2006,29-11-2006 and 21-12-2006. As a sequel to this exercise following issueswere identified :-

2. Issues involved :-

2.1 Losses of PSU's :

In the inital stage after independence the Public Sector Undertakingwere conceived to play a major role in the overall economic developmentof the State, but with the passage of time, almost all such units startedmaking huge losses and thus became unviable. Godbole Committee andKhurshid Ganai Committee dwelt on the subject of sickness of PSUs.Amongst various steps to be undertaken to rejuvenate this sector, adoption

•86

of appropriate GHSIYRS was also considered by the above committeesand the Government encouraged to work out appropriate schemes. TheGovernment's Budget and its ability to undertake social development(Health, Education) is severely constrained by the continuous bleeding interms of Budgetary support/other subventions to the publ ic sector. (Out of19 PSU's, 12 are running on Budgetary support on tapering basis.).

Changed Market Conditions:

The role played by Public Sector in the State's economy has changednow. The areas they serve can no longer be associated with classic publicgoods. In most areas of activities, the goods/services are provided by pri-vate sector. In that sense these are not areas of market failures where Gov-ernment must step in.

2.2 Barriers to fresh entry :

In the absence of a proper downsizing and exit policy for surplusstaff of clearly identified units these PSU's have become sick: the con-tinuance of such units (especially in terms of physical assets they hold)also acts as a barrier to fresh investment so desperately needed by theState's economy for employment generation and fiscal buoyancy.

2.3.1 Administrative Expenses:

It is also necessary to take into account the constraints on theGovernmental/administrative capacity due to diversion of its parts tomanage public sector units. There is also a substantial cost involved,at the governance level, in managing the Public Sector system, even.as its net contribution to public exchequer has moved to negative.

2.3.2 Statutory liabilities of PSU's :

An issue of vital importance is the humanitarian aspect arising fromthe inability of Public Sector Units to clear the statutory liabilities on ac-count of retired employees (Provident Fund and Gratuity) who have nofall back by way of pension. Even the salary payable by the PSUs to itsemployees are in arrears in most cases and give rise to widespreaddemoralization in the working class and managerial cadres.

3. GHSNRS Review:

3.1 First Golden Handshake Scheme was notified and implementedfor employees of the Himalayan Wool Combers Ltd. (HWCL) and J&KState Handloom and Handcrafts Raw Materials Supplies Organization Ltd.(HHRMSO) and both these companies were wound up as per Cabinet Deci-sion No. 59/5 dated 10-3-200 I. This scheme had an element of compulsionand there was no choice for the employees but to accept the plan. Earlier tothis Tractor Hiring Division of Agro Industries Dev. Corporation had alsobeen wound up vide Cabinet Decision No. 135 dated 5-4-1982 but in theabsence of any GHSNRS Scheme in position this unit continues to bleedthe Corporation till date.

3.2 CompulsionNoluntary Nature :

VRS/GHS Scheme as a measure to rejuvenate sick PSUs has got tobe a mix of compulsion and voluntary choice of the employees, as PSUsare not going to be wound up straight away. In respect of units or activityc~st centres of PSUs which are non functional and perpetually incurringlosses. there is no choice but to implement GHS for workers/staff of theseunits. In respect of rest of the employees of other activity/cost centres,PSUs could be encouraged to offer VRS as an option in order to improvetheir viability and competitive ability to survive.

3.3 Quantum of Ex-Gratia Benefit:

One of the essential features of GHSIVRS is the ex-gratia benefitoffered to employees. A study of such Schemes offered globally invarious institutions like Banks, PSU, Universities and even Govt.Department has revealed that the ex-gratia benefit in addition to normalterminal benefits of retirementlCPF accumulations are either based on apercentage of the average earnings during the last year of service or emolu-ments equal to a predetermined nui1ber of days for completed years ofservice and service yet to be completed before notional superannuation. Inthe scheme ofHWCLlHHRMSO introduced in 2001, the formula adoptedwas 35 days emoluments for each completed year of service and 25 daysfor each year of service yet to be completed till superannuation, subject tothe condition that it shall not exceed in any case the salary for numberof months left at the credit of each employee at the time of implementationof the Scheme. '

883.4 Some institutions have offered a benefits equal to a fixed

precentage of the base salary of current year at the time of GHSNRS.Colorado Community College offered the same as under :-

(a) 20 years of service-25% of current years base salary.

(b) 15-19 years of service-22.5% of current years base salary.

(c) 10-14 years of service-20% of current years base salary.

3.5 The matter of ex-gratia reI ief was also discussed by the Com-mittee and in order to make the Scheme attractive and practicable, finallya consensus emerged in favour of adopting a formula broadly based on theScheme implemented in respect ofHWCLlHHRMSO. A VRS/GHS Schemehas accordingly been prepared as per Annexure 2 of this report.

3.6 This Scheme has been suitably modified from the earlier GHSScheme implemented for HWCLlHHRMSO as it is to be made applicableto all PSU's which are not going to be wound up, unlike HWCLlHHRMSO.Accordingly, it has the following different features :-

(i) GHS and VRS has been defined.

(ii) Eligibility/applicability criteria is different.

(iii) Objective also is defined.

(iv) Procedure for implementation is also changed.

(v) Treatment of COLA is defined.

(vi) Funding is delineated.

(vii) Competent Authority to sanction VRS/GHS is the Chairmanand Managing Director.

(viii) Cancellation/withdrawal clause inserted.

(ix) Time frame for payment within 60 days.

89

4. Funding of GHSNRS :

•4.1 The Chief Executives of each PSU under the Administrative.ontrol of the Departments of Industries and Commerce, Agriculture,

Social Welfare, Tourism, Finance, Forest, Transport, Home, PWD, PDDwere heard in person by the Committee and were asked to identify the costcentres/activity, which could be wound up by offering GHSIVRS and alsoidentify their assets free from encumbrances to partially meet the costs.Annexure 4 and 6 ofthe report provide an indicative list mentioned by theChief Executives. The statutory liabilities of each PSU were also assessed.The Committee strongly recommends the need for the concerned PSU'sto link the funding of GHSIVRS to the generation of funds by the PSUsthrough sale/ exchange of assets Budgetary subventions could be used onlyas last resort by those PSU's which do not possess any saleale assets, or, totill the gap between the cost of implementing the scheme and the fundsrealized from sale/exchange of assets.

4.2 Various Agencies (mostly Govt. Departments) have occupiedthe Prime Lands of PSU's without any compensation. For instance about715 Kanals of Land of JKI Ltd. valuing about 120 Crore has been occu-pied without compensation (Annexure 5).

4.3 The consolidated position of 19 PSU's under the Administrativecontrol of various Departments is contained in the Annexure I of thereport. Seven PSU's out of 19 are making profit of varying degrees andrest are all running on loss. The accumulated losses of the State PSU'sas on 31-3-2005 were of the order of 1736.43 crore and the statutoryliabilities had touched a figure of 317.81 crore.

5. Resort to budgetary support:

5.1 Another important factor for smooth implementation of VRS/GHS is the capacity ofPSUs to meet the costs involved. Process of changeand restructuring including VRS/GHS should essentially be driveninternally. In view of resource position of the State Govt. which meetsless than 25% of its Budget from own sources and is dependent for thebalance 75% on the transfers from Union, both statutory as well as Grantin Aid, it can not be expected to exceed its Budgetary provision of supportto PSUs which is about 40 Crore at present. The resources for VR5/GHSare to be zencrated from the sale of assets of PSUs. Therefore, it is im-

90

perative for each PSU to get its dispensable assets free from encum-brances, evaluated by a credible, independent agency and put these to atransparent auction (Indicative list at Annexure 4).

5.2 On an average it has been estimated that the monetary outgo onaccount ofGHSIVRS of an employee will cost about 7 lakh (Rs. 4.5 lakhex-gratia and 2.5 lakh of statutory liabilities) and 15 employees can becovered under the Scheme per one crore of rupees. Therefore, about 250employees can avail ofGHSIVRS during the current financial year itself.Efforts has been made to locate and prioritize suitable units of ESl.l's whichwill be offered GHSIVRS during 2006-07 'itself (year I) which fromAnnexure 3 to the report.

6. Phasing of downsizing:

6.\ With a view to kick start the VRS/GHS during the current finan-cial year (2006-2007) itself the Committee was of the view that availablefunds under Non-Plan and Plan sectors to the extent of about Rs. \6.5 crorecould be earmarked for this purpose.

6.2 During the year II ofVRS/GHS (2007-08) the Government couldtake a big leap forward by allocating Rs. 40 crore (Rs. 20 crore each underPlan and Non Plan) for this purpose and at least 600 more employees ofJKI, AICDL and other PSU's could be covered. During the year III (2008-09), with the efforts ofPSU's to sell their assets free frQJTIencumbrances,further momentum can be given to this policy and the balance of surpluswork force will be brought within the purview ofVRS/GHS.

7. Conclusion and recommendations:

The Committee makes the following recommendations for consider-ation of the Government :-

(i) The Government may consider and approve the Scheme ofVRS/GHS forming Annexure 2 to this report.

(ii) The Government may agree to constitute a Fund to whichwill be credited the sale proceeds of assets and Budgetarysubvcnt ions under Non-Plan/Plan for meeting the cost ofV I{ 1.)/( illI.)

91

(iii) The user Agencies who have occupied the land of PSU'sshould be made to compensate the PSU concerned at theprevalent market rate.

(iv) Contingent upon successful implementation ofVRS/GHS. theGovernment shall enable PSU's to take other measures likeassets reconstitution, working capital replenishment by loansfrom financial institutions, joint ventures etc. so as to enablesustainable, competitive entities.
