Cessation benefits for temporary govt staff hiked to Rs 2.5L
Bhubaneswar: In a significant move ahead of Rath Yatra, chief minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Thursday approved a substantial increase in cessation benefits for temporarily engaged state govt employees, which they get at the end of their service. Under the new policy, temporary employees will now receive a one-time payment of Rs 2.5 lakh as cessation benefits upon retirement, up from the previous amount of Rs 1.5 lakh. The announcement brings relief to thousands of temporary workers across the state. The enhanced benefits will also apply to temporary employees who transition to regular positions but haven't completed five years of service. They will also get one-time assistance of Rs 2.5 lakh. If they complete more than five years of regular service after transition, they will get minimum gratuity of Rs 2.5 lakh, which will go up depending on the years in service. The one-time gratuity amount will see an automatic 10% increase every two years. Notably, departments can implement this biennial increase without seeking approval from the finance department. The new policy is expected to benefit thousands of temporary employees across various govt departments, providing them with enhanced financial security post-retirement.
