POPULATION FOUNDATION OF INDIA
SECTION - I
1. Background
The Population Foundation of India is a non-profit making, non governmental
organisation with its main objectives as defined in the Memorandum of Association. The
main objectives are to organize, sponsor, promote, establish contact and undertake to
assist scientific research in any area or field of population stabilization including
reproductive health and family planning. It supports national family planning programme,
thus supplementing governmental efforts in solving the national population problems. It
also serves as a continuous and reliable source for providing non-governmental funds to
interested and highly motivated voluntary agencies, organizations, institutions and
individuals to enable them to initiate supportive research and action / demonstration
activities in reproductive health, family planning and related areas. It provides an
innovative and fresh channel of thinking about how to get the people of India committed
to small family norm and to adopt modern family planning methods and also contribute
to improvements in contraceptive techniques to suit Indian conditions, as means of
spacing births and limiting family size.
The Mission of the Foundation
The Population Foundation of India is dedicated to promote effective formulation and
implementation of gender sensitive population and development policies, strategies and
programmes. PFI seeks to accomplish this by extending technical and financial support
to individuals and civil society institutions; piloting innovative approaches; and building
support at the national, sub-national and community levels through informed advocacy.
The Foundation, in most cases, achieves its objectives by relying on and making use of
research laboratories and institutions where suitable facilities already exist or can be
created with marginal additional inputs for research, teaching or other direct operation
and by entrusting implementation of action research / model projects to voluntary Non
Governmental Organizations.

SECTION - VII
7. DISCIPLINARY ASPECTS
The inculcation and maintenance of a sense of discipline is fundamental for efficient
working of any organisation. To fulfil its objectives, the Foundation, which has only a
limited staff must have its members of high quality and competence. The Management,
therefore, expects that each employee will be honest, courteous, tactful and pleasant in all
his/her association with the public and colleagues and at the same time maintain the
highest standard of personal conduct. Any abuse or misuse of benefits or privileges
provided by the Foundation are viewed as a serious matter and can be cause for
disciplinary action.
The staff of the Foundation shall not during the course of his/her employment be
involved, concerned or interested, directly or indirectly, in any other
assignment/occupation, business, employment or work unless it has the approval of the
Foundation in advance in writing. If such approval is granted the employee concerned
shall ensure that the interest of the Foundation is not sacrificed. Besides such approvals if
granted, shall be towards the promotion of technical knowledge.
Prolonged personal telephone calls during office hours, congregating at desk and in the
hallways, loud talking, misuse of internet facility and other activities of a distractive
nature in an office interfere with its business and lowers its image, efficiency and
effectiveness.
The Foundation expects the staff to comply with the rules and regulations of the
Foundation and all orders and directions of the superior authorities. The Foundation also
expects that the staff shall not take part in any unlawful activities of political or
communal party. Any matter relating to the conditions of services of an employee for
which no provision is made in this manual shall be determined by the Governing Board
or on its behalf by the Executive Director.
7.1 Disciplinary Measures
An employee whose conduct is considered by the superior officers unsatisfactory
shall be subject to disciplinary action. If an employee is at any time found guilty
of misconduct or misbehavior as judged by the administration or refuses or
willfully neglects to perform his/her duty to the Foundation, the appointing
authority may at once, with required notice or pay in lieu thereof, terminate the
services.
According to the gravity of the offence, disciplinary action may take the from of
any one or combination of the following:
Oral warning
Written reprimand
Stoppage of increment
Stoppage or withholding of pay and allowance in full or in part for a
specified period
Termination of services
Dismissal.
If an employee is placed on suspension as result of disciplinary action, he/she
shall be liable for loss of any benefits that the administration may decide during
this period. This period shall also count as time lost for the next annual
increment.
7.2 Authority Competent to Impose Penalty
The appointing authority or any other authority superior to the appointing
authority may impose on an employee any of the above mentioned penalties.

3.3 Page 23

▲back to top


7.3 Suspension of staff
If a charge of serious misconduct is made against a member of the staff and it is
considered that the charge is prima facie, well founded and that the staff members'
continuance in the office pending an investigation of the charge would prejudice
the inquiry, the staff member may be suspended from his/ her post pending
investigation. In case of suspension on part payment or without pay and if the
charges are not sustained, salary withheld shall be paid.
The administration of the population Foundation of India shall be the sole and
final judge for all disciplinary measures in respect of the staff of the Foundation.
7.4 Dealing with grievances of the employee
Grievances shall first be discussed with the employee by his immediate superior
in an effort to bring about a fair and reasonable solution. If the nature of the
grievance is pressing, then the employee can bring this to the attention of the
superior next in line by a written request routed through his/her immediate
superior. In no instance whatsoever should a genuine grievance be dismissed
unless the employee is fully satisfied and does not request that the matter be
referred to higher authority. Staff resorting to direct access to higher authorities
than his immediate superior shall become liable to disciplinary action. In any
event, no penalty should be imposed unless an opportunity of being heard is given
to the employee and his/her explanation is duly considered.
