Over 180 civil servants from the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA) have submitted applications for early retirement or resignation, including the Director of the Ministry of Home Affairs’ Office. This decision is seen as creating opportunities for younger generations of civil servants to develop.
Senior Civil Servants Also Seek Early Retirement
According to Vũ Đăng Minh, Director of the Ministry of Home Affairs’ Office, the number of civil servants seeking early retirement may increase further in the coming time. Of this group, over 60 are currently employed at MOLISA and approximately 120 at the Ministry of Home Affairs. Significantly, many of these individuals hold senior positions, such as Directors, Deputy Directors, and Deputy Department Heads, with work experience ranging from 4 to over 5 years. Even Director Vũ Đăng Minh himself was among the first to submit an early retirement application.
Reasons and Significance of the Decision
Mr. Minh believes this is a critical time for government agencies to require pioneering and exemplary leadership from civil servants. The numerous early retirements aim to create favorable conditions for younger civil servants, who are being groomed for future leadership positions, to contribute and develop. Mr. Minh stated: “I readily submitted my early retirement application to facilitate the organization’s personnel reshuffling and deployment, demonstrating my responsibility to my younger colleagues and creating opportunities for those in the leadership pipeline to progress without hindrance. In the remaining time, I will endeavor to work with the highest levels of responsibility and integrity.”
Creating Opportunities for Younger Generations of Civil Servants
A reshuffle of the civil service is necessary for sustainable development within government agencies. This change signifies the leadership’s commitment to nurturing younger, capable, and innovative individuals to take on important roles within the organization.
Conclusion
The early retirements of over 180 civil servants, including senior positions, at both ministries, demonstrate a clear strategy to provide opportunities for younger civil servants and drive innovation and progress within the public sector. This decision not only benefits the new generation of civil servants but also showcases a dynamic and innovative approach to personnel management.
