The department give complete freedom to implement innovative technology in his jurisdiction. But being a Govt department there are some constraint mainly financial . It depends upon the individual how he tackle the situation . When u are posted at the projects it is slightly easy to implement new ideas n seniors can easily be convince .

At projects u have to devote more than 14 hrs and are fully responsible for every thing like quality, cost and time over run etc nobody wants to share responsibility in case of adversity . Promotion avenues are also very less. Some time for small issues one has to suffer . It’s also difficult to lead balance life . CPWD works mainlyGovt works of other Deptt and one has to satisfy the client deptt. Permotion oppertunity are rare and this is painfull....Read More

CPWD is the organisation of engineers. Engineers not following the rules and regulations as such there controlling rests with Engineers and kept sweet corner in comparison of non technical staff. Non technical staff working under pressure of technical staff and they are not aware about the rule regulations. My suggestion not to keepthe enginnering staff in administrative wing. As per work entrusted to Office superintendent, the salary in insufficient in comparison with other central government department. No promotional avenue in CPWD ....Read More

CPWD is too good for permanent or regular employees but not for contractual or temporary employees like us. Usually the regular staffs get benefits like CL, EL, LTC, Medical etc along with the 7th pay scheduled with DA and other allowances in salary that makes satisfactory financial supports with significantly job security. But, we the daily basis contractual employees get only the basic wages according to the approved labour rate of CLC for 26 or 29 or 30 days basis in a month. No any other benefits like CL, Medical not provided to us. We fill quit separated from regular employees accordingly to their behavior, whereas having good educational qualification and communication skills. Because of not having Govt. secured job and not conscious about to avail Govt job sectors. Sometimes lots of working pressure have to handle and done with direction of higher officials without any good appreciations afterall receive only regrets. There are no any option for any kind of promotion. Salary hike only on basis of labour rates by CLC accordingly....Read More
