New Delhi: Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Sunday said that pregnant women and ‘divyang‘ (differently-abled) employees of central government departments have been exempted from attending office in the wake of a sharp spike in Covid cases.

However, they will be required to remain available and work from home, he said.

Officials and staff living in Covid containment zone have also been exempted from coming to office, till the time the containment zone is de-notified, said Singh, who is the minister of state for personnel.

He said physical attendance of government servants below the level of under secretary has been restricted to 50 per cent of actual strength and the remaining 50 per cent, will work from home, according to a statement issued by the personnel ministry on Sunday.

Rosters will be prepared accordingly by all departments concerned, Mr Singh said.

However, he said, officials and staffers, who are not attending office and are working from home, will remain available on telephone and through other electronic means of communications at all times.

In view of the rapid spread of the coronavirus, Mr Singh said that an order has been issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) with the advice that official meetings will be conducted, as far as possible, through video conferencing.

Similarly, personal meetings with visitors are to be avoided, unless absolutely necessary, he said.
