Measures to ensure substantive equality for women factor in not only those disadvantages which operate to restrict access to the workplace but equally those which continue to operate once a woman has gained access to the workplace. The impact of gender in producing unequal outcomes continues to operate beyond the point of access. The true aim of achieving substantive equality must be fulfilled by the State in recognizing the persistent patterns of discrimination against women once they are in the workplace.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court further observed that the manner in which a special provision should be adopted by the State is a policy choice which has to be exercised after balancing out constitutional values and the needs of the administration. <em>But there can be no manner of doubt that the State, both in its role as a model employer as well as an institution which is subject to constitutional norms, must bear in mind the fundamental right to substantive equality when it crafts the policy even for its own employees.<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe State while formulating a policy for its own employees has to give due consideration to the importance of protecting family life as an element of the dignity of the person and a postulate of privacy. How a particular policy should be modulated to take into account the necessities of maintaining family life may be left at the threshold to be determined by the State. In crafting its policy however the State cannot be heard to say that it will be oblivious to basic constitutional values, including the preservation of family life which is an incident of Article 21.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The observations came in the judgment where the Court has upheld the Kerala High Court verdict that had held that the Central Excise and Customs Commissionerates Inspector (Central Excise, Preventive Officer and Examiner) Group \u2018B\u2019 Posts Recruitment Rules 2016 (RR 2016) withdrawing the Inter-Commissionerate Transfers (ICTs) is not invalid as ICTs would violate the unique identity of each cadre envisaged under Rule 5 of RR 2016.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court, however, left it open to the Union of India to revisit the policy to accommodate posting of spouses, the needs of the disabled and compassionate grounds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2022\/03\/12\/withdrawal-of-inter-commissionerate-transfers-not-invalid-but-recruitment-rules-2016-may-be-revisited-to-accommodate-posting-of-spouses-disabled-persons-and-compassionate-grounds-sc\/\">Withdrawal of\u00a0 Inter-Commissionerate Transfers not invalid but Recruitment Rules 2016 may be revisited to accommodate posting of spouses, disabled persons and compassionate grounds<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[SK Nausad Rahaman v.
