Employees' body urges Centre to restructure Joint Consultative Machinery platform
An employees' association has called for the restructuring of the Joint Consultative Machinery (JCM) to better reflect current administrative realities. The All India National Public Services Employees Federation argues that the existing representation framework, established in the 1960s, is outdated and inadequate for today's governance structure. They propose expanding the JCM to ensure fair representation for all sectors and ministries, particularly those currently lacking a voice.
- ▪The All India National Public Services Employees Federation represents over 1.3 million government employees.
- ▪The current JCM structure was designed in the 1960s and does not adequately represent the expanded number of ministries and departments.
- ▪The federation has requested the government to consider rotational appointments for employee representatives to enhance representation.
