78 Days Bonus to Railway Employees for the year 2010-11 – Cabinet Decision
Railway Employees Bonus Order 2010 - 2011
Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni said the Union Cabinet has accepted the proposal of the Ministry of Railways for payment of PLB equivalent to 78 days' wages for 2010-11 for all eligible non-gazetted Railway employees.
The decision is likely to benefit 12.61 lakh non-gazetted Railway employees, she said.
"The financial implication of payment of 78 days' PLB to railway employees has been estimated at Rs 1,098.58 crore. The wage calculation ceiling prescribed for payment of PLB to the eligible non-gazetted railway employees is Rs 3,500 per month," she told reporters after the Cabinet meeting.
This will be the highest PLB payment ever to be made by the Railways. Payment of PLB to eligible railway employees is made each year before the Dusshera holidays.
"The decision of the Cabinet shall be implemented before the holidays," Soni said.
Last year, the Railways had given 77-day bonus to as many employees. Though there are a total of 13.26 lakh railway employees, 1.26 lakh are not covered under the PLB.
"PLB is based on the productivity indices reflecting the performance of the Railways and its payment is expected to motivate the employees for working towards improving the same in future," Soni said.

Pro-rata payment will be admissible to the eligible employees for period of continous service during the year from six months to a ful year, the eligibility periodd being taken in terms of number of months of service (rounded off to the nearest number of months).
(ii) The quantum of Non-PLB (ad-hoc bonus) will be worked out on the basis of average emoluments / calculation ceiling whichever is lower.

To illustrate, taking the calculation ceiling of Rs. 3500 (where actual aveage emoluements exceed Rs. 3500), Non-PLB (ad-hoc Bonus) for thirty days would work out t Rs 3500*30/30.4 Rs. 3453.95 (rounded off to Rs. 3454/-)
