Government: Unpaid leave duration is indefinite
The Council of Ministers approved an amendment to the Public Sector Human Resources Management System for the year 2026, aimed at regulating and simplifying the procedures for unpaid leave for employees. The amendment reduces the minimum service requirement from 5 to 3 years to qualify for leave and specifies that the duration of the leave is open-ended and not limited by a set number of years. Additionally, the requirement to return within the last 5 years to be eligible for a pension has been eliminated. The study leave period has been extended to 5 years, whether inside or outside the country, with the option for employees to freely participate in social security during their leave. Employees are required to coordinate with their department at least one year prior to their return to ensure proper planning, thus guaranteeing the continuity of work and government services. These modifications aim to enhance the flexibility of unpaid leave regulations and improve human resources management, contributing to the ongoing delivery of services and increased efficiency in government work.
