Retirement Age Increase News Today In many states of the country, demand for increase in retirement age is being raised once again from government employees. Many employee organizations have appealed to the government to increase the retirement age to 62 years or more.
They argue that with increase in age, experience also increases and in such a situation, removing experienced people early is harmful for both the government and the public. Meanwhile, good news has come out for government doctors. The state government has announced an increase in the retirement age of its medical officers.
Actually, the Punjab government has decided to increase the retirement age of medical officers / specialist doctors and dental faculty from 62 to 65 years under the Punjab Dental Education (Group-A) Service Rules, 2016. Punjab Finance Minister Harpal has announced this on Tuesday. He said that the Finance Department has officially approved the proposal of the Department of Medical Education and Research.
He further said that after this approval, the retirement age of dental teaching faculty will increase from 62 years to 65 years. Which is in line with the already implemented policy for medical teaching faculty in government medical colleges and hospitals of Amritsar and Patiala. He aims that this decision will increase the overall performance and quality of the Department of Medical Education and Research.
This decision will increase the service period of 113 professionals including 112 dental teaching faculty members and a joint director, so that the expertise and experience of these medical faculty can be leveraged to further improve the performance of the Department of Medical Education and Research.
