The 7th Pay Commission changed how government workers in India were paid. This pay grid covered all kinds of employees, starting from those just starting out to those in top administrative roles. Additionally, the pay grid has a system where employees could move up based on their years of service and performance reviews. This meant they could gradually get paid more as they progressed in their careers.
