Railway Department to re-employ retiring essential staff on a contract basis
The essential service workers who are scheduled to retire at the age of 60 on December 31, 2022, will be rehired by Sri Lanka Railways on a contract basis.
The President's Secretary has instructed Sri Lanka Railways to contact their retirees for assistance if needed.
As a result, Sri Lanka Railways announced in a notice that the Public Service Commission had authorized the contract-based reemployment of retried essential workers.
In the meantime, K.A.U. Konthasinghe, president of the Railway Engine Drivers Union, claimed that the railway services are now lacking in office personnel.
"Railway drivers are already employed under contracts, but in some sectors that provide services to railroads, they are not receiving them. Therefore, taking this action is crucial, according to Mr Konthasinghe
