Study Notes
Extension of Service and Re-employment
- Age Limit: Extension of service/re-employment beyond 58 is allowed only in exceptional cases, with Ministry of Railways approval.
- Service Conditions: During extension, previous service conditions apply. Terms and conditions for re-employment are determined by the Railway Ministry.
- Dismissal/Conviction: Individuals dismissed or convicted of a crime are not eligible for re-employment, except with presidential or general manager's approval for Group C/D positions.
- Reinstatement Restrictions: If an individual is dismissed, removed, or compulsorily retired, specific authorities (next higher, appellate/reviewing) must approve the re-employment.
- Disclosure Requirement: Individuals previously employed in government service must disclose this fact and reason for cessation to appointing authorities.
- Gratuity/Provident Fund/Pension: If a former government employee is re-employed, any gratuity, provident fund, or pension from prior employment must be declared.
- Appointment Authority Responsibilities: To address any breaches of regulations, the authority re-employing a former government employee must clarify the applicable rules. Their failure to do this is not an acceptable justification for any breaches. The Accounts Officer ensures compliance.
Granting Extension/Re-employment
- Public Interest: Any extension beyond superannuation must be in public interest.
- Insufficient Successor: Extension granted if an adequate successor hasn't been identified.
- Exceptional Merit: High-merit retiring personnel may warrant retention.
- Pre-emptive Successor Selection: Pre-emptive planning and selection of successors is essential. Extension should not be granted solely for lack of a prior selection.
- Prior Successor Extension Consideration: Extensions should not be granted based solely on past precedent.
- Board or Enterprise Appointments: Appointments to manage a company or enterprise usually should not involve retired personnel, except in compelling situations where the justification is detailed.
- Time-Bound Extension: Extension applications should include a clause for termination with a specified period of notice, and promotions should not take place during the extension period.
