Part-time employees not entitled to regularisation: SC
Part of: Prelims and GS-II – Judiciary
Context: The Supreme Court has held that part-time employees are not entitled to seek regularisation as they are not working against any sanctioned post in the Government.
- It said that Regularisation could be only as per the policy declared by the State/Government and “nobody can claim the regularisation as a matter of right”.
- The status of permanency cannot be granted when there is no post.
- Mere continuance every year of seasonal work during the period when work was available does not constitute a permanent status.
