Recommendations for Pay and Pension Commission 2009
The progress and prosperity of a nation depends only on the better financial and social status of teachers where as teachers in our country are deprived of this.
Increase in literacy rate and imparting quality education is only possible if teachers are financially sound.
 
Pay Structure for Teachers:

Pay Scales of Teachers should be different as comparison to other Govt. or Semi Govt. Officials. To make it possible the following should be made as base.
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
vi.

vii.
There should be a similarity in pay scale of Teacher according to designation in all over the country.
Teachers pay scales as comparison to present pay scale should have an increase of minimum 30%.
On promotion two pre-mature increment should be allowed.
Provision of move-over should once again be continued.
On additional higher qualification advance increments should be allowed.
A teacher working on the lower post but acquiring the requisite qualification of higher post should be benefited the status & pay scale of that higher post.
For remote and hard areas, there should be a benefit of special allowance including accommodation facility.
 
Regularization of Contract Teachers:

Contract teachers with better efficiency should be regularized with entitlement of pension and other fringe benefits.
 
House Allowance:

Likewise the Federal Govt. Officials Teachers should be provided the house requisition facilities or present house rent should be increased to 60%.
 
Annual Increment in Pay:

For in annual increase of pay, principle of indexation should be adopted, more over special increments in efficiency basis be allowed.
 
Up-Gradation:

Like wise university teachers pay scales of schools teachers should be up graded.
 
Conveyance Allowance:

A very large member of teachers, particularly lady teachers are facing acute problem in reaching their place of posting. Present difference of rural & urban conveyance allowance be eliminated and C.A. should be increase to 100% in companion to the present one.
 
Medical Allowance:

At present Medical allowance of Rs. 500/- is being paid to teachers and officials from Grade 1-16. This amount is insufficient and it is suggested that instead of this teachers should be facilitated with health insurance policy.
 
Group Insurance:

Like wise other Govt. officials regular monthly deduction in the head of group insurance is deducted from teacher’s salary and only few families of deceased are being benefited whereas on the entire advantage goes to insurance company. It is suggested that group insurance should be concerted into life insurance policy.
 
Eid Allowance:

Teachers should be granted Eid Allowance Equal to their basic pay.
 
Benevolent Fund:

Teachers benevolent fund should immediately be converted into teachers’ foundation.
 
Pension:

i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
vi.
If an official expires during service / after retirement 100% of pension should be given to his family.
After ten years of retirement there should be complete restoration of commuted pension.
Qualifying service for retirement should be 20 years.
Present pension should be increased to 30%.
50% commutation should once again be re-instead.
For more then 30 years service, the increment per annum in pension may once again be re-instead.
