VP Singh Badnore launches vacancy management system
Chandigarh, July 6
To fill up vacant posts, UT Administrator VP Singh Badnore today launched the Recruitment Rules and Vacancy Management System.
Briefing about the features of the system, which was developed by National Informatics Centre (NIC) for the Administration, SK Jha, secretary personnel, stated that it would allow the Heads of Departments (HODs) to monitor on their dashboards the information gap related to update of recruitment rules and vacancies, sending automated quarterly alerts to the branch in-charges to provide information.
Jha said it would help the departments in filling up the vacancies expeditiously and, in turn, provide an opportunity of regular appointment to the youths. Filling up of the vacancies will also improve the quality of delivery of the Administration. It is important to note that because of the decision regarding retirement, larger number of people have retired from the Administration. The system will also capture a life cycle of the recruitment process. The system will provide timely reminders to the HODs to take action so that the posts do not lapse after lying vacant for two years. This will also help the cadre management in various cadres.
The Administrator appreciated the efforts of the Personnel Department to devise a system which would address key challenges in the current system while providing opportunity of regular appointment to the youths. He wanted the features of the software to be utilised by the HODs by taking a holistic view to streamline the administrative machinery.— TNS
