The Ministry of Public Administration has introduced new guidelines for state employees returning from overseas leave.
According to the recent circular, employees who fail to report back to work on their scheduled date after their leave ends will be deemed to have vacated their positions. The guidelines stress that any request for leave extensions must be approved before the initial leave period expires. If the extension is not resolved in time, employees are required to return to work as originally planned.
The Ministry further warned that heads of state institutions who do not enforce these procedures will face disciplinary actions. This initiative aims to enhance the management of leave policies and ensure strict compliance across all state institutions.
