Bernama has reported that Cuepacs President, Omar Osman said Civil servants will be able to accumulate up to 150 days of their leave for their gold-en handshake beginning next year. He added that he was informed about the longer golden handshake by the Director-General of the Public Service Department, Tan Sri Ismail Adam, at a meeting here yesterday.
The golden handshake is the cash in lieu annual leave accumulated that civil servants will receive upon retirement. Currently, a maximum of 15 days leave can be accumulated annually for the golden handshake up to 120 days. Recently, government’s decision to reduce the annual leave for new employees from 30 days to 25 days beginning next year.
This is a very good news to all Civil Servants compares to private sector or even GLC workforces. I am working in GLC company but my annual leave only 15 days per year for first 5 years of service in company. Golden Handshake Option; ‘jauh panggang dari api’.
