| (a) Outsourcing of Services: | ||
| (1) | A Department may outsource the function, e.g., Catering, housekeeping, security etc. to a service provider agency for a fixed period of time for a mutually negotiated amount. Accordingly, the service provider agency will engage a certain number of personnel and deploy equipment to meet the specific standards prescribed for that function in the contract. In this case, the functionaries continue to be the employees of the service provider agency during, and even after, their assignment with the Department/Organization. The charges/remuneration for these services will be Provided by the service provider/agency. | |
| (2) | The core functions should not be outsourced and should be carried out by the regular employees. | |
| (b) Outsourcing of functionaries : | ||
| (1) | The department may requisition the services of a certain number functionaries, to support its employees to carry out their mandate. The functionaries could be Office subordinates, office assistants at junior clerical level with Word Processing skills, Computer Operators, Drivers etc for a specific period.
