The instructions issued by the Railway Board from time to time on the subject of Casual Labour, are contained in several letters. The Railway Board have now decided to consolidate the various instructions on the subject into a single body as a master circular, as below, for the information and guidance of all concerned. Definition : 2. The term Casual Labour refers to Labour, whose employment is seasonal intermittent, sporadic or extends over short periods. Engagement of casual labour may be for a short duration on specific works or on Projects, till such time work is available. Labour of this kind is generally recruited from the nearest available source. (Ref: Board's letter No. E(NG)60 CL/13 dated 22.8.1962, E(NG)II/77/CL/46 dated 8.6.1981) Engagement of Casual Labour : 3. According to extant policy, the authorised strength of Casual Labour on a Railway both in the open line and in the Projects, (frozen as on 1.1.84 and) refixed as on 1.1.90, after taking into account factors like the number of posts created for decasualisation, reduction in gang strength due to modernisation of track and introduction of machine maintenance, reduction in Project Casual Labour etc, should not be exceeded and fresh candidates (fresh faces) should not be engaged from the open market. However, to meet emergent situations, the ban will not apply and fresh candidates from the open market if absolutely necessary, should be taken only with the prior personal approval of the General Manager. 3.1 The above stipulation equally applies to Project Casual Labour also and CAO(R)'s have also to take prior approval of General Manager before engaging "fresh faces." 3.2 Casual Labour who have worked on the open line/Project in the past and who, after discharge, have not been re-employed and are borne on the live register will be re-engaged first against the requirement in the order of priority on the basis of the total period of service prior to their discharge, in preference to candidates from the open market. Also the re-engagement of discharged Casual Labour, borne on the live register/supplementary casual labour register referred to in paras 7.8 and 7.9 of this circular against short term requirements as in emergencies or against requirements arising from the absorption of serving Casual Labour in regular Group 'D' posts, should have the prior personal approval of the General Manager. While seeking his approval for such re-engagement of discharged Casual Labour, the number required to be taken from the live register should also be put up to him. In case of engagement of Casual Labour for specific emergencies, like restoration of breach etc., the period of their engagement also should be mentioned along with the number to be taken. [Ref: Board's letters No. E(NG)II/80/CL/5 dated 7.6.1984, 20.12.1984, E(NG)II/88/CL/34 dated 27.12.89, E(NG)II-88/CL/86 dated 08.12.88 (RBE 268/1988), 14.2.1990, E(NG)II/89/CL/1 dated 23.2.1990 (RBE 41/1990) and E(NG)II/89/CL/1 dated 25.10.1990 (RBE 188/1990)] 3.3 Subject to what has been mentioned in paras 3, 3.1 & 3.2 above, casual labour may be engaged only for the following types of work : a. Works of casual nature in the open line establishment, for which payment to the personnel engaged would be met from contingencies; b.
