ROTATION POLICY FOR GROUP ‘B’ AND ‘C’ OFFICRS IN JNCH NAVA SHEVA

 

          It is a well recognized fact that to ensure effectiveness of administrative machinery, for an efficient delivery system, it is significant to put in place an effective human resource development policy. At the local level one important aspect of a HRD policy is to have a proper rotation policy, which recognizes the merit and also provides adequate exposure to the officers, and equal opportunities to work in various spheres of customs administration. At the same time it is also required to be ensured in respect of assignments requiring expertise/skills and continuity that officers are posted for longer duration as compared to the assignments which may not have such requirements. Further for specialized job, like SIIB and CIU officers with adequate exposure in assessment, examination, preventive work will be selected keeping in view their past records.

2.       With the above objectives in mind, the existing rotation policy has been reviewed and a revised rotation policy has been framed.

3.       The general guidelines of this rotation policy are as follows:

(a)      The rotation policy has been formulated for officers in the rank of Appraising Officers, Superintendents, Examiners and Preventive Officers;

(b)      The rotation policy has been formulated keeping in view that officers should get maximum exposure possible. The tenure of posting for a particular assignment would depend upon the need for continuity, the skill/expertise requirements;

(c)    Performance evaluation and proper appraisal of officer is a significant ingredient to ensure delivery standards. Therefore, rotation would be done in a manner that is conducive to performance evaluation. For this purpose, an officer, to the extent feasible, would work under the same reporting/ reviewing officers so that proper appraisal of officer could be done in key result area and other deliverables.

(d)      All posts have been divided into two categorizes, namely, Sensitive and Non- Sensitive.  While allocating sensitive charges to eligible officers, first preference would be given to officers who have done lesser sensitive charges in previous five years. As far as possible, the officers would not be posted from one sensitive charge to other and a break of six month would be ensured between two sensitive postings. However, for administrative reasons (like officers in cloud list are more than the non-sensitive postings) an officer could continue to work in sensitive charge, without doing a non-sensitive charge.

(e)      Rotation order shall normally be issued twice in a year, i.e. preferably in April and October. Rotation of posting shall be maintained in a definite cycle to ensure that a given posting is repeated only when the cycle is completed.

(f)      Posting to SIIB and CIU would be selection based. Officers would be selected for SIIB and CIU from an Intelligence Pool and selected officer would be posted in these charges for a period of two years. Their tenure shall not be counted towards the JNCH tenure even though the posting is considered sensitive. This would be implemented in consultation with Chief Commissioner (Zone-I) and (Zone-III), after the adequate Intelligence Pool is created, w.e.f. April 2010. Till such implementation, the Officer from JNCH pool would be posted to SIIB/CIU, and their continuance in SIIB/CIU would be based on their fitness for the job and the administrative requirement. However, in respect of such officers, who, from JNCH pool, continue in SIIB/CIU for period longer than the normal tenure as per the previous policy, it will be ensured that they get opportunity to work in sensitive charges for a period of one year during their JNCH tenure. If need so arises, JNCH tenure of such officers would be extended suitably.

(g)   As docks posting is considered most sensitive, no officer would be posted to docks for second tenure.

(h)      In docks and export sheds, in normal course an Appraising Officer/ Superintendent/ Examiners and preventive officers (except for officers on gate duty) would work under one Assistant Commissioner during his entire tenure in the docks and export shed. This would ensure proper performance appraisal of these officers as well as comparative performance evaluation of various teams working in docks. Assistant Commissioner would be held overall responsible for the performance of his team. A team would normally be rotated from one cluster of CFS to another after every month.

(i)       Performance of an officer would be continuously reviewed. If an officer does not perform/deliver in a non sensitive charge, or remains absent for a long time, he shall not be considered for a sensitive charge. In this regard, the reporting officer would furnish a report to Commissioner, 10 days before the officer is likely to complete six months in non sensitive charge, about the performance of such officer (qualitatively and quantatively, duly supported by the facts and figures) and the period for which such officer remained absent from work during this period. Unless this performance is found satisfactory, and the reason for absence from duty, if any, is for genuine reason, officer would not be considered for sensitive charge.

(j) Posting to Chief Commissioner’s Office would be for a period of of six months.
