Annexure E

UPSKILLING OF WORKMEN AT SI EA O PA

Preamble:

Presently, the workers at O PA are engaged across multiple workplaces, performing jobs that are largely at a basic skill level. Recognizing the potential for growth and enhanced productivity, it is proposed to upskill interested candidates. The primary objective of this proposal is to elevate the skill levels of our workforce, enabling them to take on more complex and higher-level jobs. This will not only enhance their individual career growth but also contribute to the overall efficiency and success of SIEA O PA.

Proposal:

We have identified potential "roles" in different functions (as identified in Annexure: Jobs in O PA Goa) which can be used for upskilling. Before we start the upskilling program, all existing confirmed employees will be fitted in W1–W3based on their date of seniority, aptitude, qualifications, experience, andperformance which is based on Quality, Attendance, Productivity, and Safety. Such fitment shall be done w.e.f. 01.10.2025.

Fitment Criteria

Before we start the up-skilling program, all existing confirmed employees will be fitted in W1 - W3 based on Date of Seniority and satisfactory performance which is based on Discipline, Quality of work, Attendance, Productivity, and Safety. Such Fitment shall be done w.e.f. 01.10.2025. Accordingly, the wage structure will change from the said date.

Illustrative Example:

Workman with date of seniority 01.11.2013, having Grade W2 and basic Rs. 237/- he will be fitted into the Grade W3 w.e.f. 01.11.2022 as per the eligibility years mentioned in promotion criteria. However, the changes in wage structure according to the said fitment shall be done w.e.f. 01.10.2025. Then onwards for future promotion the *date of fitment shall be considered.

So his basic as on 1.10.2025 will be Rs. 249/-. He will be fitted into W3 according to the promotion criteria and the seniority eligibility. Hence, he will be fitted on the basic with the fitment at Rs.256/ plus an increment of the promotion i.e. to Rs.270/-. It means his wage structure & allowances w.e.f. 01.10.2025 shall be in accordancwith the years of service & Basic of Rs.270/-.

The proposed up-skilling potential for each employee will be determined based on acomprehensive assessment conducted during Phase 1. This assessment will take into consideration the individual's current skill level, learning capabilities, and career aspirations. The objective is to ensure that every employee has a clear and achievable development path that aligns with both their personal goals and the strategic objectives of SI EA O PA.

Note:

1. Workmen to complete minimum no. of years in each grade for next promotion and consistent satisfactory performance in Quality + Productivity + Attendance + Safety.

2. In general objective criteria for performance measurement will be used and in absence of data it will be decided mutually.

3. Employees will have complete flexibility to work in all lower grades based on the business needs.

Selection Criteria:

The candidates for the up-skilling program will be selected based on the following criteria:

Training Program: Selected candidates will undergo a comprehensive training program designed to equip them with the necessary skills and knowledge for higher-level jobs. The training will be provided by experts, both internal and external, ensuring blend of theoretical and practical learning.

Internal Training: Internal training sessions will be conducted by senior employees and experienced professionals within O PA. These sessions will focus on imparting organization-specific knowledge and skills, ensuring that the candidates are well-versed with the company's operations and standards.

External Training: Where necessary, external trainers will be brought in to provide specialized training in certain areas. This will include workshops, seminars, and certification courses conducted by industry experts.

Implementation Plan: The upskilling program will be implemented in a phased manner, ensuring minimal disruption to ongoing projects and operations. The phases will include:

All these activities for First batch will be completed within 1 year of signing the agreement. Thereon based on the "roles" and the "vacancy/positions" available, there will be list" open positions" published on notice board. Such list will be prepared annually based on the open positions. Based on the applications from the interested candidates, there will be transparent selection based on their aptitude, qualifications, experience, and performance.

Handling of special cases:

In case of any non-availability of the open positions, Employees who are eligible and interested will get the opportunity for learning and officiating on need basis. Such employees who are ready for promotions on eligibility criteria, trained and have1182 OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 35 27TH NOVEMBER, 2025 experience based on officiating, there promotion criteria (period) will be relaxed to the extent of their seniority. Respective Department Heads will maintain records of officiating and copy of the monthly record of the said officiating shall be given to the respective workman.

For E.g. Employee in W3 for 4 years + Satisfactory performance # will be eligible for promotion. However, in absence of any "open positions" such eligible employees if interested will undergo training and will also do officiating on need basis.

If there is open position after six years in W3, and employee is ready based on the performance of training and officiating then their qualification for promotion from W4 to

W5 will be reduced from 4 years to 2 years. However, in any case such reduction will not be less than 2 years to ensure sufficient skill developments in W4.

Annexure G

Work Measurement Using Most

Work measurement has an important place in productivity improvement. Productivity can be maximized only when there exists a standard method of accomplishing a task and the time to perform a task according to a standard method can be measured.

MOST will be used for computing all Work Standards or Time Standards.

MOST is an "activity based' work measurement system that enables us to calculate the length of time required to perform a task.

Benefits of the MOST Technique

1. Can be applied to any type of manual work for which a method can be defined and described.

2. Can be applied in a fraction of time it takes to perform traditional time study.

3. Is 'method sensitive' and the outcome of the analysis provides cues as to where there are opportunities for saving time, money, and energy.

4. Provides consistent and fair standards without having to rate performance of the workers Revision of Time Standards

All time study-based time standards will be revised by application of the MOST technique.

The Management for the following reasons will change the time standards:

1. When the work content of the operation is affected which can be due to changes in the working condition, plant and equipment, product specifications, material or methods, workplace layout and redeployment of work force etc. 2. In case of any error in calculations.

It should be the endeavor of Management and Union to finalize the Standards in shortest possible time in order to gain the results of rationalization.
