The proposal aims to promote only qualified and competent officers.
The govt has announced to form an evaluation board comprising of senior secretaries and Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC) chairman, which will decide the continuation of civil servants employment.
20 percent officers fulfilling the eligibility criteria will be promoted to grade 20 and 21, while it has been mandatory for govt officer to served other than his province in order to get promotion in grade-21, according to new laws.
The civil servant, who will serve more than 10 years in one province, would not be promoted to upper grade, while for getting promotion in grade-19 and grade-20- one has to perform duties in hard areas.
