Kathmandu, July 30
The Public Service Commission has expressed dissatisfaction with the involvement of trade union officials in the recruitment of staff and other crucial staff decisions at various public utilities.
Umesh Prasad Mainali, the chief of the constitutional body assigned to recruit government staff, says the trade unions representatives have been involved in recruiting, transferring and promoting various agencies. He says the commission has been raising voices against such a trend, but it has not stopped yet.
“For example, the union is involved in recruiting staff at Gorkhapatra Corporation. The corporation’s regulations regarding staff recruitment ensure the union’s representation in the recruitment committee,” Mainali says, “The regulations should have been amended after the promulgation of the constitution, but they have not done so.”
He complains the corporations do not consult the commission in formulating such laws.
“We have told Gorkhapatra Corporation that we will not get involved as long as there is a trade union. Consequently, some recruitments have been halted.”
