‘No work, no pay’ clause invoked to counter mass CL plan

CHENNAI, SEPTEMBER 29, 2018 00:00 IST

In the wake of various service associations calling for a mass casual leave on October 4 to press for various demands, the State government has instructed all heads of departments not to sanction casual leave to employees without ascertaining the genuineness of the reason.

In a communication sent to all the department heads, the Chief Secretary stated that the mass casual leave would affect the normal functioning of the government. Also, it was in violation of rules 20 and 22 of the Tamil Nadu Government Servants’ Conduct Rules, 1973.

“If any staff member has a genuine reason for applying for a casual leave on October 4, the same may be sanctioned after ensuring their genuineness,” the communication stated.

The absence of any employee or teacher without prior sanction of permission would be considered unauthorised, and there would not be any pay and allowance, it stated.

All the departments have been asked to send a consolidated report on the attendance position, at the latest by 10:45 a.m. on October 4, to the Personnel and Administrative Reforms Department, the order added.
