The current review has disregarded several critical workload components, leading to a significant underestimation of the *actual burden on staff*. Key overlooked components include:
1. BO Workload Managed at SOs: The review has ignored the workload handled at SOs related to BO operations, such as account maintenance, transactions, and supervision.
2. Coefficient Factor for Computerization: The removal of the 45-minute coefficient factor due to computerization is flawed, as it doesn't account for network downtime, software glitches, and network slowness.
3. BO Supervision at SOs: The time and effort involved in supervising BO activities at SOs remain unclear and unquantified in the review.
4. High-Value Withdrawal Verification: The mandatory second verification at SOs for BO withdrawals exceeding Rs. 20,000 is a substantial workload not reflected in the review.
5. BO Article Delivery and Updation: The workload associated with delivering articles at BOs and updating them at SOs is overlooked.
6. IPPB Verification at SOs: The daily verification of IPPB transactions conducted at BOs is not considered.
7. Half Margin Verification Memos: Sending half-margin verification memos to SDHs for BO withdrawals over Rs. 10,000 adds to the workload.
8. Annual Interest Posting: The annual posting of interest for all SB and SSA accounts across all BOs during April is a massive undertaking not factored into the review.

16. AML Alert Verification: The verification of AML alerts is another task not considered.
17. Scheme Inquiries: Handling inquiries about various schemes adds to the workload.
18. Queue Maintenance by MTS: Managing queues adds to the responsibilities of MTS staff.

21. Error Entry on Mails Work: Correcting errors related to mail work consumes staff time.
22. Handling of Non-Migrated Certificates and Accounts: Dealing with non-migrated items adds a specific workload.
23. Maintenance of INOP Register: Maintaining the INOP register is an additional task.
