Odisha Govt To Accept Only Online Leave Applications From Next Year

Bhubaneswar: The Odisha General Administrative (GA) Department has decided to enable an online leave management system for its employees from January 1, 2020

Offline paper leave applications will no longer be accepted. The online system will reduce paperwork and make the system more transparent and efficient, official sources said.

Employees will have to log on to the website of Human Resources Management System (HRMS) and submit their leave applications. Concerned officials can review and approve the applications through the same software. Details of employees’ leaves will reflect in the HRMS and e-service book and payroll once accepted. 

The Odisha government has also decided to pay the full pension money to employees on the day of their retirement. A pension module has been prepared to keep records and this will be executed after March 31, 2020. All departments have been asked to prepare e-service book and manual service book of their respective employees by the end of December, for this purpose.
