In a strict move against absenteeism, the Deputy Commissioner of Rajouri district has taken decisive action against government employees who failed to report for duty during official working hours. The administration has ordered a one-day salary deduction for staff members who were absent from their positions without proper authorization.
Official Order Issued by District Administration
The action was initiated after Deputy Commissioner Vikas Kundal conducted surprise inspections across various government offices in the district. During these checks, several employees were found missing from their workplaces during official working hours, prompting the administration to take disciplinary measures.
The order specifically targets employees who were absent on November 26, 2023, when the Deputy Commissioner personally monitored attendance patterns across multiple departments. The salary deduction applies to all absent staff members regardless of their department or position within the district administration.
Zero Tolerance Towards Negligence
This decision reflects the district administration's commitment to ensuring accountability and punctuality among government employees. The Deputy Commissioner emphasized that such measures are necessary to maintain discipline and efficiency in public service delivery.
The one-day salary cut serves as both punishment and deterrent against casual absence from work. The administration has made it clear that similar actions will be taken against employees who neglect their duties in the future, reinforcing the importance of regular attendance in government offices.
Broader Implications for Government Staff
This disciplinary action sends a strong message to all government employees in the Rajouri district about the administration's zero-tolerance policy toward absenteeism. The move aims to improve overall governance and ensure that public services remain accessible to citizens without disruption.
The order comes as part of the district administration's ongoing efforts to enhance transparency and accountability in government operations. Regular monitoring and strict action against negligence are expected to significantly improve the efficiency of public service delivery mechanisms in the region.
Government employees have been advised to maintain strict attendance and perform their duties with dedication, as the administration continues its vigilance against any form of negligence in public service.
