- Pension Rules for Officers in the service of the Calcutta Municipality, as finally revised and approved by the Commissioners at a Special Meeting held on the 7th April 1877.
1. For all continuous service in posts regularly sanctioned by the Corporation, except service on salaries on or below Rs. 10, pension may be granted. 2. Service does not qualify unless the officer holds a substantive office on a permanent establishment; but if an officer on a permanent establishment is detached on temporary duty, on the understanding that, when the temporary duty ceases, he will return to the permanent establishment, he continues to count service as if he had remained on the permanent estab, lishment, 3, Press servants on the fixed establishment are entitled to pension. 4. Servants of the Corporation, whose pay is either Rs. 10 or less, are not entitled to pension, but may be allowed such gratuity as the Commissioners shall, at a special meeting, on a consideration of the circumstances, adjudge proper. Authorised leave in the case of such servants counts as continuous service. 5. Time passed under suspension, pending inquiry into conduct, counts for pension, if the suspension is inmediately followed by reinstatement. Time passed under suspension adjudged as a specific penalty does not count. 6. A break in the continuity of service entails forfeiture of past service, except in the following cases:– (a) Authorised leave. (b) Absence prolonged after the end of leave. Provided that, if an officer remains absent for more than a week' after the end of privilege leave, his past services are forfeited, unless the Chairman, or the Commissioners in meeting, as the case may be, re-appoint the officer, and make a declaration in writing that his past services, or part of them, shall qualify. Whenever the Chairman shall make such a declaration, the same shall be laid . before the Commissioners at meeting for information and confirmation. If the officer remains absent for more than a month, his past services cannot count without a special order of the Commissioners in meeting. (c) Suspension immediately followed by reinstatement, which need not necessarily be to the same office. (d) Abolition of office not followed by a gratuity or by re-appointment within two years. 7. Resignation of service, or removal from it on account of misconduct or inefficiency, entails forfeiture of past service. 8. Compensation pension or gratuity may be awarded to an officer either when discharged from the service of the Corporation or on a reduction of establishment. 9. An invalid pension or gratuity may be awarded on retirement from the service of the Corporation to an officer who, by bodily or nental infirmity, is permanently incapacitated as established by medical certificate— (a) For active employment. (b) For the particular branch to which he belongs. نما SAAAAAA SAAAAAS AAA LLLAA AATTAAA AAAA SAAAAA S AAAAAA AAAAS MAMASMMMAAA AL AA A AL LLLLS asta si Assis stime: عمه ستحقاعس. فجتخص. do not apply to officers lent to the Municipality or directly appointed 5 Gomment شده [Government Gazette, 11th September 1877.]
