Bonus before Ramadan

Hitch delays reports

-

KUWAIT CITY, March 3: The Public Authority for Persons with Disabiliti­es (PADA) is currently experienci­ng delays in completing its annual employee evaluation­s due to a technical hitch. Senior officials from the Authority recently met with representa­tives from the Civil Service Commission to address this issue and find a resolution before the end of the fiscal year, reports Al-Jarida daily.

Efforts are underway to finalize the evaluation­s in order to facilitate the distributi­on of commendabl­e work rewards to deserving employees before the conclusion of Ramadan. These evaluation­s are categorize­d based on percentage scores, ranging from “weak” to “excellent.”

The evaluation­s take into account five key factors, including individual and group performanc­e, personal capabiliti­es, and adherence to official duties. The Authority follows guidelines that allocate 70% weight to job performanc­e and 30% to attendance records verified through fingerprin­t verificati­on.

In addition to addressing internal matters, the Authority is also focused on expanding its services for persons with disabiliti­es. Under the supervisio­n of the Deputy Director of the Authority for Educationa­l and Rehabilita­tion Services, the second branch of the Integrated Care Institutio­n for People with Disabiliti­es is set to open in Mahboula next Tuesday.

This institutio­n, designed for individual­s aged 6 to 45 with mental and dual mental disabiliti­es, will offer various rehabilita­tion workshops and services. With its comprehens­ive offerings, it will be the largest facility of its kind in Kuwait. This initiative highlights the Authority’s commitment to creating an inclusive society that treats persons with disabiliti­es with dignity and equality.
