ISLAMABAD: After the federal government’s decision to not increase salaries and pensions of its employees, the Pay and Pension Commission has forwarded its suggestion to the government urging it to increase salaries and pension and ensure uniformity in salary structures.
The federal government announced its decision to not increase salaries and pensions for the upcoming fiscal year during the presentation of the Budget 2020-21 on Friday, June 12.
In its recommendation forwarded to the Ministry of Finance (MoF), the commission, which was constituted in April this year, has not only suggested an increase in salaries but also urged the government to ensure uniformity in the salary structure of government employees since there exist serious discrepancies in salaries and pension of employees of different organisations.
According to sources, the Finance Division has estimated that in case salaries and pensions are increased by 10 percent the government will have to bear an extra burden of Rs25 billion.
The Pay and Pension Commission currently has the mandate to evaluate salary structures of the employees of the federal and provincial governments as well as the armed forces with an aim of bringing some uniformity. The commission is also mandated to review the need for increase in salaries and pensions of government employees.
According to sources, though the commission could not finalise its work on salary and pension related issues prior to the Budget 2020-21, it had, however, initially made some recommendations to the government.
The six-member commission will be headed by former finance secretary Abdul Wajid Rana. However, despite its wide scope almost all the members of the commission belong to Sindh. Its members include two retired civil servants Nazar Hussain Mahar and Dr Noor Alam, President United Bank Limited Seema Kamil, Chairman National Bank of Pakistan Zubyr Soomro, and Nausheen Ahmad from ICI Pakistan Limited.
The scope of the commission includes federal and provincial civil servants, other government servants, civilians paid from defence budget, all armed forces, civil armed forces and all employees of the public sector enterprises.
The federal government’s pay structure has not remained lucrative after two provincial governments approved additional allowances of up to 150 percent. The federal government also gave special allowances to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) and the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) that created unease among the employees of the Pakistan Secretariat.
Insiders claim that the ministry may review its decision of not increasing salaries and pension as different employees unions have decided to protest against the decision.
In March, thousands of employees in the Islamabad Secretariat had also registered a protest against the disparity in salaries. They were later given assurance about an increase in salaries in the Budget 2020-21.
The Federal Association of Government Engineers has also announced a country wide protest against the budget, which it says has not given any relief to engineers.
Bullshit
The NBP retired employees whose pensions were unfairly and illegally reduced from 70%to 33% and 2009 onward even budgetary annual increases announced by the government similarly need to be treated with restoration of their pensions to 70% as well as release of all due withheld annual budgetary increases in pensions with immediate effect in all fairness to meet killing mega inflation triggered by unprecedented devaluation of Pak rupee exacerbated by pandemic Coronavirus.
please merge two adhoc relief allowances.
with increse 10% pay.
and give utility allowance all pb.govt. employees.

Did not get ur point dear as to how it is possible that a pensioner is not receiving his monthly pension. From which Deptt ur father got retired.
Bullshit is this commission which has not finalized its task before Budget preparation. Lanat on this commission. Their own pay and allowance immediately needs to be stopped and also recovered back the earlier availed by the commision.
HOKOOMAT KI BADNEETI PEHLAY HI WAZAY THI UNHON NAY COMMISSION APRIL MAIN BANAYA AUR 6 MAH KA TIME DE DIA ISS LIAY COMMISSION KA TO KOI QASOOR NAHI HAI
Imran Khan can’t increase Pension and Salaries because his bulky cabinet and too many advisors and spokesmen are quite enough like locusts to enjoy heavy pay and privileges . Perhaps He feels insecure without these motor mouth locusts who are contributing nothing except always protecting their inefficient government.
He made too many promise with public including to increase pension and salaries equal to one Toola gold but not honoured his single promise.
Bhai salary mat barhao but ek kaam Kar do bus Jo adoce he woh zam karo basic me do 4 he bus or upgredtion De do 2016 se nahi mil raha bus
Amir bhai sub bherna chahye salary pension sub kuch.

Abi b country main Imran Khan ky bht sy chahny waly mojoud hain Allah un ky haal per reham kry aur unhain hidayat dy kh wo haqeeqat ko samajh sakain. Yeh banda kbi pakistan ky baray main acha ni soch sakhta
ALLAH HAMARAY MULK PAR RAHIM FARMAI (AMEEN)
please increase salaries ,,,,jo log rent k houses main rehta ha un k owner to every year 10% increase krta ha,,,,agr ap log salaries increase nhe kro ga to hum un ko barha hua rent kaha se dy,,,
ALLAH PAR UMEED RAKHO
Right Allah Rehmaan hy….Insha Allah acha hoga
Ok come
Salary and pensions must be increased as the rent of the house has been increased by 10%,and so is the fare of vehicles.The rates of food , vegetables and fruits and other necessities of life have become so exorbitant…To live with the same salary has become very hard
As far as the Federal Budget is concerned, the Federal Govt. must have increased it considering at least to the extent of the hike in specially eatables and medicine. Which would be fulfilled by increasing salaries @ 20 to 30 % with all four Adhoc Relief Allowances (2016, 2017, 2018 & 2019) be added to the Basic Pay. It may satisfy the Federal Employees for the time being. Further House Rent Allowance and Medical Allowance must at least be doubled. That’s my thinking and estimation, kindly other Federal Govt Employees may as LSO post their comments as well. Thanks.
IN JHOOTON SE KOI UMEED NAHI HAI
Imran khan is a big liar, me and my family were given to Vote to PTI but it’s our big mistake. Imran khan kept German Shepherd Dogs into his home and allocated a huge Budget for Dogs while the other hands the low paid employees have so suffered due to recent approved Budget. Shame on You Imran Khan, have you remembered that when you said 2 lac salary is not enough for me. Beghairat insan
True.
Apna he ghar nahi dekhna hamay. KISI hakoomat m is trha 12000 kiya, 1000 nahi diya gareebo ko kisi nay. Imran khan is the first person. jis nay ye kam kiya. Bill tk maf kiye.
Is say bara koi kam nahi.
Koe bill maaf nahi kiye bhai..double bills arahay aaj kal.
Please vote Charsi in next election for hope increase in pay and pension
This is bullshit blog….. all information shared in this blog regarding salary were fake. Stop making fool and don’t share nonsense fake news.
@Admin
In punjab education department pay of a teacher is very low utility allowance is given to all departments and allowance are fixed according to basic pay in 2008 it is injustice .it is very difficult to cope with the basic needs of daily life
when it comes to salary increase the Pakistan Peoples Party govt. is best as the difference is clear, they increased salaries in bulk amounts in their last tenure.this govt in my opinion is not eligible to deliver lower and middle class of nation.
Apart from the salary increase, the shortage of petrol is another proof of disability of the govt.
where cheap petrol is vanished from the country, and it is being sold at double to triple price that the govt has announced.
But despite all that , i wanna advise you that “sab se pehlay aap nay ghabrana nahi hay”
Sir,plz Pak army soldier ki pay k baray mn kuch bta dain

Not only the pay increase by the fed. govt was made to its employees, but also it did not up-gradation of UDCs/LDCs like four provincial governments
