The Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology has launched an inquiry into attendance irregularities involving 20 of its employees. The move comes after discrepancies were noted during a reshuffle within the ministry on Chaitra 14, where it was discovered that the aforementioned employees were absent from their designated posts.
Sources within the ministry reveal that disciplinary measures are being considered in accordance with legal provisions for employees failing to attend scheduled meetings or adhere to office hours without valid reasons. The ministry emphasizes the importance of clear communication and understanding of directives among its staff members.
Additionally, the ministry has announced plans for continuous monitoring of employee activities across various departments and offices under its jurisdiction. Employees found to be consistently absent without prior notice during office hours or neglecting their duties will face appropriate legal action, the ministry asserts.
Furthermore, performance evaluation will play a crucial role in motivating employees, with incentives being provided based on merit.
