Expectations to Increases in Salaries

As the government of Pakistan understands the financial problems of every government employee, employees expect that government will accept their request and will make enhancements in salaries as per the need of employees. The government of Pakistan is facing a critical economic crisis. This financial crunch also affects the financial position of individuals. All the government employees not only feed their families but also fulfills other living needs like:

  1. Medical Expenses
  2. Educational Experiences
  3. House Rents
  4. Basic necessities of life like food, clothing, etc
  5. Conveyance Expenses

 

Request to Increase Conveyance and House Rent Allowance

 

As the prices of all commodities of life are increasing day by day. Therefore we are also facing a rise in petrol prices. As it is the basic mean of transportation, Government must control the price of petrol. Many of the female employees used to hire private conveyance on a monthly basis. They have to pay monthly rent for the conveyance which is out of reach of their pockets. Many male employees used to ride motorbikes. Their monthly expense of petrol consumption is much more than the Conveyance allowance provided by Government. So for that reason, they request to increase conveyance allowance and house rent allowance to assist the employees.

 

Request to Increase Medical Allowance

 

Medical expense is also a very important expense for employees. The medical allowance which the government is paying to every government employee is a very small amount as their medical expenses are more than it. Therefore, Employees request the government for making an increase in the medical allowance for all employees in the annual financial budget of 2023. As, they have to pay for medicines, medical treatments, and the consultation fee of doctors. They also spend on basic medical tests.

 

Suggestions of Other Political Parties

 

All the other political parties are also welcome to give suggestions about salary increases in budget 2023-2024. They have the right to make opinions and give suggestions to the Government regarding the allocation of suitable funds for the employees. They can also suggest a percentage increase in salaries according to the needs of employees.  I hope that Government will present a balanced budget for the employees.
