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.
