4,9,14 Years ACP Scheme

Assured Career Progression Scheme
Assured Career Progression Scheme
                  This scheme was introduced by the Punjab Government on the recommendations of 5th Punjab pay commission. Let’s discuss in brief about this scheme:-
  • This scheme becomes effective with effect from 1-11-2006.
  • Employees who are in service before 01-01-2006 that is before the application of 5th Punjab Pay commission will have an option either to continue in the existing Assured Career Progression Scheme after a service of 8,16,24,32 years or to opt 4,9,14 years Assured Career Progression Scheme.
  • Employees who have joined on or after 1-1-2006, this scheme is automatically applicable to them means they don’t have to give option as in previous case.
  • "After a service of 4,9 and 14 years in a post or posts in the same cadre (herein after referred to as the same post) and service rendered in the same post in different Government Departments, who is not promoted to a higher level on account of non availability of a vacancy or non existence of a promotional avenue in the cadre, shall be granted the pay scale, which is next, higher in the hierarchy of pay scales given in the column 3 of the first schedule annexed to Revised Pay Rules,1998. On placement in the next higher scale in the hierarchy of pay scales after a service of 4,9 and 14 years, the pay of an employee shall be fixed at the next higher stage in the pay scale and he shall be allowed next increment from the date he would have earned his next increment had he continued in the lower pay scale."
         In simple words we can say that after a service of 4,9,14 years on a post or in same cadre, an employee will get higher grade pay plus one increment. For complete details follow the instructions provided here-under:-
