PRESCRIBED PERIOD OF AD-HOC SERVICE
IN CENTRAL GOVERNMENT SERVICES
The period prescribed
for ad-hoc service under the Central Government and rules laid down for making
ad-hoc service permanent…
The total period for which the
appointment/promotion may be made, on adhoc basis, is limited to one year. In
case there are compulsions for extending any adhoc appointment/promotion beyond
one year, the approval of the Department of Personnel & Training has to be
sought. Also, the Department of Personnel & Training has delegated powers
to the administrative Ministries/Departments for appointing the officials of
Group ‘C’ and erstwhile Group ‘D’ posts on ad-hoc basis upto a period of three
years, in consideration of exigency of work.
As per the extant policy of the
Government, all posts are to be filled in accordance with provisions of the
applicable Recruitment Rules. Promotions/appointments on ad-hoc basis are
resorted to in exceptional circumstances, to a post which cannot be kept vacant
in consideration of its functional/operational requirement. Such ad-hoc
appointees have to be replaced with regular incumbents, selected in accordance
with procedure prescribed in the relevant applicable statutory Recruitment
Rules, at the earliest. In view of this, there is no requirement of making
ad-hoc service permanent.
The above information was submitted as
a written reply to a question in the Parliament by the Minister Shri. V. Narayanasamy
on 19th December 2012.
