Supreme Court Employees Found Violating Attendance and Dress Code Rules

Kathmandu. It has been found that employees of the Supreme Court, the body responsible for the final interpretation of the law, are failing to follow regulations.

The Supreme Court administration stated that during a surprise inspection of attendance and 'dress code' conducted by the court's monitoring division on Baisakh 3, it was discovered that rules were not being followed.

 In a notice issued by the Supreme Court administration, employees have been instructed to enter the court only in the prescribed attire within the specified time, and to perform their duties under the direction of branch/division heads in a manner that avoids complaints from service seekers.
During the surprise inspection conducted that morning, 82 employees were found entering the office after 9:00 AM, and 22 employees were found not wearing the prescribed attire (including those wearing jeans and t-shirts).
The number of employees absent without approved leave or prior notice was 70. Similarly, the court administration informed that during a surprise desk check conducted on Baisakh 2, nine employees were not found at their workstations (having only signed in for the morning and evening).

The court stated that records of the discrepancies found during the monitoring will be maintained, and informed that from now on, the attendance machine will not accept check-ins after 9:15 AM and before 5:00 PM, noting that this monitoring will continue regularly by the monitoring division.
