The Ministry of Public Administration, Home Affairs, Provincial Councils, and Local Government has recently issued a circular introducing a new system for government employees to take no-pay leave. This development aims to provide government employees with the flexibility to pursue personal endeavors, including the option to travel abroad or remain in the country during their leave period.
Under the new system, government employees who opt for no-pay leave will have the opportunity to take time off from their official duties while maintaining their seniority and pension benefits. This significant change in policy is expected to offer government employees greater freedom in managing their personal and professional lives.
The circular highlights the Ministry of Public Administration's commitment to enhancing the work-life balance of government employees. By granting them the flexibility to choose no-pay leave, employees are empowered to pursue various activities and experiences, both within the country and internationally.
