Query about provisions for Physically handicapped employees!

Following are the provisions for  Physically handicapped employees prevaing in Banks.
( any more information you know, may be brought to my notice with proof, so as to update)

* Reservation in recruitment through IBPS!
* Monthly conveyance allowance of 5% of Basic Pay subject to max.Rs.400.
* From May 2014,  deaf&dumb employees also eligible for the above allowance.
  ( previously only orthopaedically handicapped employees are receiving this allowance.)
* This allowance is over and above Ra.225/275 provided in Bi-partite settlement.
* So far no reservation in promotion process.

* Regarding place posting on recruitment/transfer/promotion pl read the following Govt. guidelines:


F. NO. 302/33/2/87-SCT(B) 
Government of India 
Ministry of Finance 
Department of Economic Affairs 
(Banking Division) 
New Delhi, Dated 15.2.1988 

All CES of public Sector Banks 
And Financial Institutions 
RBI/NABARD 
SUB: Posting/Transfer of Physically Handicapped employed in public sector banks/financial institutions. 

Sir, 
Representations have been received that in view of their physical disability bank employees who are physically handicapped may be exempted from routine periodical transfers from places of their original postings/appointment. Earlier the Government had issued instructions vide letter No. 302/33/2/87-SCT(B) dated 31st August, 1987 that BSRBs should endeavour as far as possible to allot the selected physically handicapped candidates to banks having branches located in or near their home town or village. 

The question of their posting/transfer has also been considered in the same context and it has been decided that subject to the administrative exigencies, the physically handicapped persons employed in public sector banks in all cadres should normally but exempted from the routine periodical transfers. It has been decided that such persons should not normally be transferred even on promotion if a vacancy exists in the same branch/office, town/city. When the transfer of a physically handicapped employee becomes inevitable on promotion to a place other than his original place of appointment due to non-availability of vacancy, it should be ensured that such employees are kept nearest to their original place of posting and in any case are not transferred to far off/remote places. This concession would not be available to such of the physically handicapped employees of the banks who are transferred on grounds of disciplinary action or are involved in fraudulent transactions, etc. 

The receipt of this letter may be acknowledged. 

   
      Yours faithfully, 
      Sd/- 
(Y.P. Sethi) 
Deputy Secretary to the Govt. of India"

I am physically handicapped person working in IOB and it was shocking news for me when i came to know that there is no reservations in promotion for PH. In other hand there is promotion on the basis of cast and creed. Please explain me is belonging to a special classes is more painful than being a physically handicap.

Shame to hear about the promotion policy where a physically handicapped suffering person is being discriminated by denying reservation in promotions but a abled bodied person is being given reservation because of caste, does this a humanity act?

There is no such policy found in united bank of India, w.r.t.Government had issued instructions vide letter No. 302/33/2/87-SCT(B) dated 31st August, 1987 that BSRBs should endeavour as far as possible to allot the selected physically handicapped candidates to banks having branches located in or near their home town or village.

I am also not get justice in this regard. No such circular thereof. I will defenately favor if this bank is merged with a big bank. Most of big bank follow the circular.

Sir ...

There was a circular regarding work allotment for physically handicap / disabled bank employees that whatever allownaces are already being given shall not be withdrawn eventhough the person may not have been left capable due to physical handicap and thus not actually working for that allowance post or has become incapable to do such allowance post work
... and that such a person shall be given light work comparatively and suitably.. and shall not be compelled to work for that allowance post..

i,e, the allowances will continued to be given as earlier

pls provide the copy of such letter

( most likely ...it might have been issued somewhere in between the year 2012 to 2015)

Thanks & regards
