ADVISORY : EMPLOYMENT OF CONTRACTUAL MEDICAL AND DENTAL OFFRS AT ECHS POLYCLINICS
1. The ECHS polyclinics are manned by contractual staff which are selected by a BOO convened by respective Stn HQs. It has been observed that there are several Medical Offrs and Dental Offrs including Specialists who have been employed at one polyclinic for longer duration; at times more than 10 years. Such longer duration at one polyclinic increases the chance of corrupt practices which overall has an adverse impact on the management and efficiency of the polyclinics.
2. With an aim to ensure greater transparency and address man management issues in a better manner, there is thus a need to carry out rotation of Medical Offrs and Dental Offrs including Specialists within the polyclinics under the AoR of respective Stn HQ so as to ensure that no Medical Offrs and Dental Offrs including Specialists remain employed at a polyclinic for more than four years. Given the age criteria as per laid down policy, the experience of such staff may be utilised at other polyclinics by the Stn HQ if desired.
3. Appropos, Comd HQs are requested to advise Stn HQ under their AOR to exercise due diligence and ensure that the above measure is adhered to while employing Medical Offrs and Dental Offrs including Specialists at ECHS polyclinics.
4. This advisory may please be disseminated upto Stn HQ level for strict compliance please.
