Government employees who have differently abled children will be exempted from transfer - Dopt Orders

Dopt issued new guidelines on transfer policy for Central Government employees who have differently abled children on 6th June 2014. 

The Department of Personnel and Training has ordered exemption from transfers and rotational transfers to Central Government employees who have differently abled children. And they will not be asked to take voluntary retirement on refusing such postings

Raising disability children with special needs is a daunting and very stressful task. In order to ease the pain of these parents and ensure care and upbringing of these children, the Dopt has issued an sympathetic order on the 6th of this month. 

According to the Dopt orders [Order No. 42011/3/2014-Estt. (Res.)], these employees shall henceforth be not compelled to take up voluntary retirement due to work pressure, and be exempted from transfers and rotational transfers as per the departmental administrative activities. 

The move comes after Dopt enlisted the salient features in the rehabilitation and special education requirements in the upbringing of these children, and realized the fact that these measures require a long time to take effect and that the environment in which these children are raised is very important. 

It has also be pointed out that these employees cannot be compelled to take up voluntary retirement due to financial pressures, keeping in mind the cost involved in offering special treatment and education to these children.

Dopt Orders on Posting of Government employees who have differently abled dependents 

No.42011/3/2014-Estt.(Res.) 
Government of India 
Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions 
Department of Personnel and Training 
North Block, New Delhi 
Dated the 6th June, 2014 
OFFICE MEMORANDUM 

Sub: Posting of Government employees who have differently abled dependents - reg. 

There has been demand that a Government employee who is a care giver of the disabled child may not have to suffer due to displacement by means of routine transfer/rotational transfers. This demand has been made on the ground that a Government employee raises a kind of support system for his/her disabled child over a 
period of time in the locality where he/she resides which helps them in the rehabilitation. 

2. The matter has been examined. Rehabilitation is a process aimed at enabling persons with disabilities to reach and maintain their optimal physical, sensory, intellectual, and psychiatric or a social functional level. The support system comprises of preferred linguistic zone, school/academic level, administration, neighbours, tutors/special educators, friends, medical care including hospitals, therapists and doctors, etc. Thus, rehabilitation is a continuous process and creation of such support system takes years together. 

3. Considering that the Government employee.who has disabled child serve as the main care giver of such child, any displacement of such Government employee will have a bearing on the systemic rehabilitation of the disabled child since the new environment/set up could prove to be a hindrance for the rehabilitation process of the child. Therefore, a Government servant who is also a care giver of disabled child may be exempted from the routine exercise of transfer/rotational transfer subject to the administrative constraints. The word 'disabled' includes 
(i) blindness or low vision 
(ii) hearing impairment 
(iii) locomotor disability or Cerebral Palsy 
(iv) leprosy cured 
(v) mental retardation 
(vi) mental illness and 
(vii) multiple disabilities. 

4. Upbringing and rehabilitation of disabled child requires financial support. Making the Government employee to choose voluntary retirement on the pretext of routine transfer/rotation transfer would have adverse impact on the rehabilitation process of the disabled child. 

5. This issues with the approval of MoS(PP). 

6. All the Ministries/Departments, etc. are requested to bring these instructions to the notice of all concerned under their control.
