Sr. GM HR/ Admin Sri Sathesh was also present in the meeting. Association side was represented by Chairman Sri Saheer, CS Sri. Maxmilan, and ACS Sri Dipu Chandran.
The AIGETOA team apprised the CGMT about the anguish in the mind of Trainees who were posted outside their BA. We have detailed about the changes which we vouched for in HR front -particularly the Transparency in the implementation of Transfer and postings, after AIGETOA became the representative executive association. We have also shared various instances in which the Circle management got misleading information. We also requested our CGMT to consider the retention posting of remaining 10 trainees in their BAs, i.e. at Kozhikode and Malappuram. We also requested to publish all pending OTP inter BA transfer requests and expedite the process of request transfers.
The meeting was concluded in a very positive and cordial atmosphere. After detailed deliberations, the following assurances were given by respected CGMT Sri. B Sunil Kumar ITS:
1) The retention posting of left out Trainees in their BAs can be done during their final posting. Management will make all out efforts to consider the same.
2) Inter BA OTP request list will be published soon and processing of request clearances will start immediately.
Later we had a detailed meeting with Sr. GM HR/Admin at his chamber. In the meeting we discussed about the relieving of Rule-8 transfer cases which were approved already. We also discussed about the further processing of remaining ones. Sr. GM assured us that the orders will be issued soon and assurances given earlier will be followed.
We have also raised the concern of those executives working in SDE cadre but who were left out in the recent SDE to AGM DPC on account of reversion related matter. We submitted a detailed letter in this regard. GM assured us that the matter will be escalated to corporate office after checking the submission.
We wholeheartedly thank our respected CGM and Sr.GM HR /Admin for considering the genuine concerns from employees and for the assurance that transparency will be ensured in all HR matters.
