Among the most common violations were allowances and rewards, delegation in specialty, holding supervisory positions, prior supervision, and working outside one's specialty.

The writers requested appropriate measures be taken by relevant entities to resolve and prevent observed violations, in coordination with the Civil Service Commission.

Entities without violations include the Ministry of Social Affairs, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Higher Education, Ministry of National Assembly Affairs, Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Oil, and the Ministry of Health.
