Major Relief for Outsourced Staff in Uttar Pradesh
In a significant move, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has announced that outsourced employees, particularly those working in the state’s transport corporation, will now be eligible for transfers. This policy shift is set to bring major relief to thousands of outsourced conductors and other contract-based staff.
Transfer Option to Home District Now Available
Until now, outsourced employees in the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) did not have the option of requesting transfers. With the new policy, they can now apply to be posted in their home districts, allowing them to work closer to their families. This step is expected to boost employee satisfaction and improve operational efficiency.
Focus on Employee Welfare and Administrative Reforms
This decision aligns with the Yogi government’s broader push for administrative reforms and employee welfare. By offering more flexibility and addressing long-standing concerns of outsourced workers, the government aims to foster a more stable and motivated workforce.
Implementation Expected Soon
Officials have indicated that the new transfer policy will be rolled out soon, with guidelines being prepared to streamline the process. This move is likely to set a precedent for other departments employing outsourced staff across the state.
