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.
