The central government may soon enhance the fitment factor for more than 52 lakh central employees, according to recent news reports. It is important to note that the basic pay grows in accordance with the fitting factor. In fact, the central employees have been pressing the central government for a raise in the fitment factor for a very long time.
Currently, central staff receive a fitting factor of 2.57%. It is wanted to be increased to 3.68 times. The minimum basic wage will rise from Rs 18,000 to Rs 26,000 when the fitment factor is increased from 2.57 to 3.68. The minimum wage for central employees will significantly increase if the central government accedes to this demand.
