President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has decided to allow former employees who quit their civil service due to various reasons to rejoin the civil service.

According to the President's Office, the decision was made after discussing the paper submitted by the President's Office at a cabinet meeting held yesterday.

According to the President's Office, a registry of former civil service staff has been created which includes people temporarily willing to work in areas where manpower is required.

President's Office said it is important to set a reasonable salary for Maldivians working in the Maldives after training in various technical fields.

As such, at least 50 percent of the budget allocation for the higher education loan scheme would be earmarked for "highly technical fields" in all sectors.

According to the President's Office, such a decision was taken by the President as some institutions found it difficult to provide services and perform the duties required by the institutions due to the delay in recruiting people to the civil service due to the procedures for recruitment to the civil service, and to replace those who take long-term leave for various reasons. Because there are difficulties in recruiting people to do.

Employees, including nurses, who have left the health sector due to various reasons and those who have been discharged from service, are now being brought back to service.
