New rules for civil servants’ attendance

A new sub-decree signed by Prime Minister Hun Sen warns civil servants that breaking new work attendance rules may result in being banned from future public service.

The 44-article decree, dated April 1, lays out attendance management systems and punishments for late or absent workers, including being permanently banned from working for the government.
