ISLAMABAD: A division bench of the Federal Service Tribunal (FST) on Thursday adjourned the hearing of four cases carrying ‘seniority’ related complaints.
The FST division bench comprising Members Syed Rafique Hussain Shah and Dr Nazir Seed heard the submission filed by employees of the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR).
Appellants Syed Shakeel Shah, Muhammad Saleem, Dr Iftikhar Ahmed and Muhammad Junaid Jalil Khan, had filed these cases.
They had prayed the tribunal to direct the board on granting them the scale as per their services at the board. They had submitted that despite serving at the board for several years, the administration had not promoted them to the higher scales as per rules.
While some juniors had been deputed or promoted to upper scales and thereby becoming their seniors at the board, they submitted adding that it was done in mere violation of board’s rules and regulations.
They had asked the tribunal to ensure protection of their lawful ‘seniority’ and delivering their service-rights to them.
