4 (Four)

7. Critical analysis &

observations

Due to stoppage of works relating to SECR &

E.Co.Rly. and availability of data directly through

of FOIS, the workload of the Statistical deptt. has

reduced drastically. Computerization in some of the

sections and modification of FOIS outputs as per

Rly. Bd’s format shall further increase efficiency.

8. Brief note on

recommendations

Rec–I : Vacant post of STI-II to be filled up.

Rec-II : Provision of output data as per Bd’s

formats may be taken up with CRIS.

Rec-III : Density Statement and Chart are

available from Engg. Branch and hence the Post

of JE may be surrendered.

Rec-IV : The 31 vacant posts available as such to

be surrendered outright and 2 posts falling

vacant shortly on superannuation to be frozen

and subsequently surrendered.

C H A P T E R - I

1.0. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Indian Railways is a labour intensive industry having a workforce of about 13.1

lakh regular employees with the annual current salary bill amounting to around

Rs.58,350 crores and pension expenses nearly Rs. 33,000 crores. At the end of

2015-16 the Operating Ratio stood at 90.5%. Adding to all these, the 7th Pay

Commission recommendations will have serious financial impact with an

additional burden or Rs. 32,000 crores. Productivity of costly physical assets

owned by Indian Railways for carrying out its core business of transporting men

and materials all over the country is largely dependent on effective manpower

management. In the past couple of decades there have been vast changes in the

operational technologies in the Indian Railways by way of modernization,

electrification, computerization and mechanization. These changes, in turn,

require a completely new approach to manpower planning.

1.2 A comparison of present staff expenditure and staff cost with that of a decade ago

would reveal that the staff strength has reduced but the staff expenditure has gone

up manifold. The increasing staff cost and the magnitude of the cost in relation to

gross expenditure and gross receipts only emphasizes the importance of effective

management of manpower over Indian Railways

1.3 The Railway statistics are based on factors of quantity, distance, duration and

service. The primary factors denoting these units are expressed as follows:

Quantity : expressed in number of tones and passengers transported and in

earnings derived;

Distance : expressed in kilometers;

Duration : in hours and days;

Service : in trains, vehicles, wagons & engines.

These primary units are linked together to denote joint conceptions and are

expressed in composite terms called fundamental units viz., tonne kilometers

representing the product of the quantity and distance traveled, passenger

kilometers, train kilometers, wagon kilometers, engine hours, wagon days etc., are

obtained in similar manner.

1.4 Finally the eventual concept on which statistics are based i.e., the relationship that

exists between two sets of primary or fundamental units and the results thus

arrived at, are the derived units.

1.5 The principal heads under which the Railway Statistics are generally grouped are

(a) Economic & Financial Statistics (b) Transportation Statistics (c) Commercial

Statistics (d) Rolling-stock & Workshop repair statistics & (v) Administrative

statistics

1.6 The compilation of Railway statistics of Indian Railways is classified broadly

under two categories viz., (i) those statistics required to be compiled by the

Railways/ Railway Board in order to keep informed about the different activities

and (ii) further detailed Railway statistics which individual Railways may

undertake for their own respective domestic/divisional requirements.

1.7 The organization for compilation and interpretation of statistics is under the

charge of the Director (Statistics & Economics) under the FC for Railways. The

statistical compilation work on S.E.Rly is in the charge of Dy. Ch. Statistics &

Analysis Officer functioning under the FA&CAO.

1.8 Some statistical data are also compiled for the domestic needs by the different

units.

1.9 The data from which statistics are compiled are derived from various initial

documents sent to the Statistical deptt by the divisions, stations, sheds, yards, etc.

and also from FOIS data.

1.10 The Statistical department undertakes the processing of important types of

statistics namely, Operating & Commercial Statistics which constitute the bulk of

the statistical information. A certain amount of statistics reported for accidents,

claims, marshalling yard operations, terminal operations, rolling stock,

workshops, staff, etc., is generally undertaken by the departments concerned

although the same are consolidated and reported by the Statistical department.

1.11 For any railroad organization, continuous cargo visibility is the most critical

component of its physical distribution system. FOIS allows freight customers to

get instant access to information regarding the current status of their

consignments in transit, allowing them to implement just-in-time inventory

management systems and better logistics management. It is also a system for

management and control of freight movement, which assists managers to optimize

asset utilization.

1.12 This is especially important for the Indian Railways, whose key revenue earnings

arise from its freight traffic.

1.13 The market share of freight traffic had been on the decline over the last few

decades, owing to improvements in road infrastructure. To arrest this decline, it

was imperative to (a) Enhance customer responsiveness through cargo visibility

and information dissemination, (b) Reduce operating expenses (c) Improve asset

utilization.

1.14 Indian Railways has successfully launched the Freight Operations Information

System (FOIS) & Coaching Operations Information System (COIS) covering

almost the entire railway network. The design, development, and implementation

of the system is a totally indigenous effort accomplished by CMC along with the

Centre for Railways Information Systems (CRIS).

1.15 It has the framework for an enterprise database and information system. It lays

the foundation for a complete logistics management system, furnishing real time

information on the chain of physical distribution, an essential element in reducing

inventory costs.

1.16 The application is interface-ready for web-based services like connectivity to

customers, a payment gateway interface and flexible information to both internal

and external users. The system also generates as many as 1200 managerial

reports. These reports being generated by the FOIS & COIS application has

presently replaced many of the statistical data, being generated by the Statistical

department.

1.17 The present crash study has been taken up with a view to pinpoint such surplus

manpower due to the effect of FOIS/COIS and discontinuance of the SECR &

E.Co.Rly workload.

CHAPTER-VI

5 CRITICAL ANALYSIS WITH RECOMMENDATIONS:

5.1 There is one Statistical Inspector Gr-I who is also looking after the work both at

GRC and at KGP.

Recommendation - I : The vacant post of STI-II is required to be immediately filled

up by calling options.

5.2 In the Staff (Statistics) Section, all the data are manually posted in the concerned

registers and then fed in the computer for obtaining the final sheet. This involves

a lot of time and manpower. With the introduction of IPAS, these figures can be

directly generated from the system. If all the figures relating to ST-5 are directly

made available in the system by CRIS as per Bd’s format, then the efficiency of

the section shall increase. Further, it was seen that previously RITES was

providing Cumulative of ST-7C but presently, FOIS position of this item is not

cumulative. As a result, all the data are to be entered manually in the register and

then the final figures derived manually.

Recommendation – II : The aspects relating to provision of output data as per Bd’s

formats may be taken up with CRIS for an effective man-power management.

5.3 In the Vehicle KM section, the work-load involves mathematical calculations.

This work can be easily computerized by introduction of suitable soft-ware.

5.4 In the Density Section, the activity of the JE involves preparation of Density

Chart of the four divisions, viz., ADA, CKP, KGP & RNC. The Density statement

and Density Chart are readily available from PCE’s Office/GRC.

Recommendation – III : The post of JE may be surrendered and the man-on-roll

may be sent back to Engg. deptt.

5.5 The present workload is on a diminishing trend due to the implementation of

FOIS / COIS. The present man-on-roll is sufficient to cope up with this workload.

In the Establishment Section, it was also seen that 1 Sr. Clerk has been entrusted

with the dealing 3 bills (BU 121, 122 & 123) with a total of 3 staff. These 3 bills

can be combined with BU 115 & 116. Further there are 2 nos Sr. Clerks for

assisting the others. These 3 nos of Sr. Clerks can be deployed in other sections

viz., FC section.

Page 26: REVIEW OF STAFF STRENGTH VIS-A-VIS WORKLOAD AT THE ...indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/uploads/directorate/eff_res/work_Study/Work_Study...require a completely new approach to manpower

-23-

In the Despatch Section, there are 3 Peons. Considering the workload, the number

can be reduced to 2 Peons and one Peon can be deployed to other sections viz.,

Stores Section.

There is duplication of activities in the Electrical Section (Optg). The repetitive

activities can be consolidated and one OS deployed to other sections.

The study team is of the opinion that there is a surplus of 4 ministerial staff and

one Peon from the current on-roll strength.

The following is the list of staff on the verge of retirement within 6 months:-

(a) Sri R.A.Khan, Sr. Clerk, (April ’17)

(b) Sri Sailen Jana, Sr. Clerk (June’17)

There following is the current vacancy position:-

Ch.OS-1,

OS-8,

Sr.Clk-1,

Jr.Clk-20

Peon-1.

Recommendation – IV : The 31 vacant posts available as such to be surrendered

outright (without affecting promotional aspects) and 2 posts falling vacant shortly on

superannuation to be frozen and subsequently surrendered.
