I have already published an article about the History of Adhoc Relief Allowances. Today I am writing the history of the Medical Allowance Rates Since 1987. These rates are very useful for the purpose of calculation of arrears with a backdate for the employees who are upgraded with backdate and are given benefits from the previous dates.
Medical Allowance Rates Since 1987 Government Employees of Pakistan
Medical Allowance @ Rs.50/- per month was granted to the employees of BPS-01 to BPS-15 vide Finance Division O.M No. F.l/7/Imp-II/87, dated 1st July, 1987. Later on 01-06-1991, it was raised to Rs. 60/- per month on the existing conditions. It was fixed Rs. 90/- per month on 01-11-1995 and again raised to Rs. 160/- per month on 01-12-2001.
