Good news for Indian Railways employees ahead of the festive season as Central Government has approved Diwali bonus for non-gazetted employees. Union Cabinet on Wednesday cleared a proposal for payment of productivity-linked bonus (PLB) equivalent to 78 days’ wages for the financial year 2020-21 for all entitled non-gazetted railway staff. More than 11 lakh non-gazetted employees of Indian Railways likely to get benefitted from this move, Union minister Anurag Thakur said while announcing the decision.

The PLB on Indian Railway covers all non-gazetted railway employees (excluding RPF/RPSF personnel) who are spread across the country.

The cabinet said that the payment of the productivity-linked bonus for 2019-20 is expected to motivate the employees for working towards improving the performance of the railways further. The acknowledgement of their work will enhance the sense of inclusiveness and belonging in railways families.

The ministry of railways had earlier presented a proposal in front of the Union Cabinet to clear the PLB for non-gazetted railway employees.  In 2019-20, the Indian Railways had given its nearly 11.58 lakh non-gazetted employees a bonus of 78 days. The total cost of the bonus was estimated at Rs 2,081.68 crore, the Cabinet said.
