Corporation employees seek changes in service rules
An association of employees of nine municipal
corporations, excluding Chennai, has urged the State Government to bring
in necessary changes to their service rules so as to remove a few
“anomalies.”
A release issued at the end of a State
Executive Committee meeting says that the Government must recognise all
municipal corporation employees as its employees and extend all benefits
that the government employees enjoy. The Government must promote all
eligible employees in the engineering wing of municipal corporations
just as it has allowed in the Tangedco. To do so it must bring in the
necessary changes in the service rules of municipal corporation
employees.
It must also make changes to introduce the
post of sanitary officers. The release said that even small municipal
corporations had sanitary officer’s post. Similarly, it should promote
sanitary supervisors as conservancy inspectors.
It also asked the Government to fill up vacancies in the Coimbatore Corporation.
