Jammu, Nov 11: As earlier order issued by the authorities failed to ensure the attendance of employees in government offices, the Jammu and Kashmir Government on Friday issued strict directions regarding adherence to biometric attendance in government offices, Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs), institutions, and corporations.
The Union Territory administration has directed the Drawing and Disbursing Officers (DDOs) to furnish daily Action Taken Report (ATR) in this regard to the General Administration Department (GAD) of the government.
Dr. Piyush Singla Secretary to the Government GAD issued an order No No.GAD-ADM/262/2021-09-GAD on November 11, 2022, in which clear directions were issued to all Heads of Departments (HoDs) and DDOs.
The order clearly mentioned that biometric attendance is mandatory for all employees.
“In terms of Government Order No. 650-JK(GAD) of 2022 dated 02.06.2022, instructions were issued to all Government Offices/PSUs/ Institutions/Corporations across Jammu and Kashmir to switch over to Biometric System (Aadhar or Finger Print Based) with immediate effect and all employees were directed to necessarily mark their attendance both at arrival and departure as per the notified office hours of various offices,” reads the order.

“Notwithstanding, these clear and elaborate instructions on the subject, it has been observed that a sizable number of employees continue to draw their salaries without marking daily attendance, a matter which has been viewed seriously by the authorities,” the order reads, adding, “It is accordingly enjoined upon all Administrative Secretaries/ HoDs/Managing Directors of PSUs/Corporations/Institutions as also all the Drawing and Disbursing Officers to strictly adhere to the instructions and furnish daily Action Taken Report in this regard to the General Administration Department on email id [email protected].
