Staff Reporter:
The Public Administration Reform Commission (PARC) has suggested government employees be allowed to seek voluntary retirement with full benefits after 15 years of service, instead of existing 25 years.
“It is recommended that public employees be allowed to retire with all benefits after 15 years of service. This will provide an exit route for ones who choose to change their career,” read the PARC report submitted yesterday to Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus.
The Commission, headed by former secretary to the government Abdul Muyeed Chowdhury, sim-ultaneously said Section 45 of the Public Service Act, 2018 should scrapped which allows the gov-ernment to give compulsory retirement to any of its employees after 25 years of service, if it wish-es.
The chairman along with the commission members handed over the report to the Chief Adviser at State Guest House Jamuna.
