CCS Leave

Original Rule Text

34. Persons re-employed after retirement In the case of a person re-employed after retirement, the provisions of these rules shall apply as if he had entered Government service for the first time on the date of his re-employment.

What This Means

Rule 34 of the CCS (Leave) Rules, 1972 deals with the leave entitlements of individuals who are re-employed in government service after their retirement. Essentially, it states that when a retired government employee is re-hired, their leave account is treated as if they are joining the government service for the very first time. This means their previous service and accumulated leave balance (if any) from their earlier tenure are not carried forward or considered for leave purposes in their new employment. They start afresh with the leave accrual rules applicable to new entrants.

After a year, he was re-employed as a Consultant on a contract basis. According to Rule 34, Mr. Sharma's 60 days of earned leave from his previous service are not added to his leave account in his new role as a Consultant. He will start accruing leave as per the rules applicable to his consultant position, as if he were a new employee. If the consultant role allows for 15 days of earned leave per year, he will accrue leave based on that rate from the date of his re-employment.
