According to the supplied report, the Finance Department has issued an order approving the bonus for employees who meet the prescribed eligibility criteria. The department’s Accounts Division has also released a statement regarding the decision.
The announcement is expected to provide financial support to eligible employees ahead of the festive season, when household spending on shopping, gifts and celebrations typically increases.
The bonus will be calculated according to the applicable government rules and the salary components considered eligible for the payment. However, the supplied information does not specify the complete eligibility conditions, the maximum bonus amount, the employee categories covered or the date on which the money will be credited.
The term “non-productivity-linked bonus” refers to a bonus that is not directly tied to an individual employee’s measured productivity. The actual amount payable can depend on the government’s prescribed calculation method and the employee’s eligibility under the relevant order.
Employees are advised to check the official Finance Department order or contact their respective departments for details about eligibility, calculation and payment timelines.
The announcement comes ahead of Diwali and is intended to provide a festive benefit to eligible Chandigarh Administration employees. Further details will be needed to establish exactly how much individual employees will receive and which categories of staff are covered by the order.
