Most Important

No. 5/1/2012-1B&C

From
The Principal Secretary to Government Haryana,
Finance Department.

To
1. All the Heads of Departments.
2. Registrar, Punjab & Haryana High Court, Chandigarh.
3. Divisional Commissioners, Ambala, Rohtak, Gurgaon and Hisar.
4. All the Deputy Commissioners in Haryana State.

Dated, Chandigarh the 29th May, 2013.

Subject:- Regarding re-employment of government officials/officers after Superannuation.

Sir/Madam,
   I am directed to invite your attention towards Finance Department letter of even number dated 4th July, 2012 on the subject noted above wherein it was requested that henceforth, no ex-cadre/additional posts would be created for re-employment of officials/officers after their superannuation and such posts would be treated within the sanctioned posts of their cadre. Further it was also decided that re-employment of officials after their superannuation Should not be allowed as a matter of routine and it should be allowed in very exceptional circumstances.

   2. It has come to the notice of Finance Department that the cases of re-employment of several retired officers/officials are being sent frequently to Finance Department for creating ex-cadre posts which are contrary to the instructions issued vide letter no referred to above. The Finance Department intends to further elaborate these instructions as under:-

   “Finance Department observes that several retired people are being re-employed. The Finance Department has two options-(i) that a new post is created for the person to be re-employed or (ii) an existing post vacated by the retired person (to be re-employed) is utilized for the re-employed person. Finance Department has opted for the second option since re-employment in every case would otherwise imply creation of additional post causing unnecessary burden on the exchequer. In any case, if the work in that department/ place was discharged by ‘X’ number of employees earlier, it would be inappropriate to have ‘X+l’ persons to do the same work without any justification. This would also ensure that the pressure of serving employees will deter the re-employment of all and sundry. The government has expressedly banned the creation of new posts considering the strain on the resources and the continuing revenue deficit.”

   3. It is again re-iterated that the above said policy instructions and earlier issued by letter no. referred to above be complied with meticulously and cases of re-employment of officers/officials after their superannuation should be sent to Finance Department in very exceptional circumstances.

   4. These instructions may please be brought to the notice of all concerned for strict compliance.

Yours faithfully,

Sd/-
Joint Secretary Finance (Budget)
for Principal Secretary to Govt. Haryana,
Finance Department.
