Senior Employees With 30 Years Of Service Will Be Retired By Ministries

30 April 2023 Kuwait

Currently, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) and the Ministry of Finance are preparing a list of all senior officials and supervisors in the public sector who have completed 30 years of service. Once the list is finalized, those who are listed will be requested to accept mandatory retirement so as to make room for young people to take over the affairs of the country.

Using a new mechanism, the ministry, in coordination with the Public Institution for Social Security (PIFSS), will purchase the employee's remaining years until their actual retirement age and adjust the payments accordingly.

There is a report that the Council of Ministers is prioritizing the filling of vacant positions in various government agencies. This follows the latest State Audit Bureau report which calls on the authorities to urgently fill leadership and supervisory positions that have remained vacant for far too long. The bureau report noted that the vacuum created at the top negatively impacts the performance and effective functioning of the concerned government entity.

As well as approving several new appointments in government agencies, the Council of Ministers is reported to be looking into the CSC's recommendations for prospective candidates after interviews.

Figures from government sources show that 116 senior positions in 22 government agencies are waiting to be filled, and that the CSC is coordinating with relevant government agencies to develop new mechanisms for appointment.
