Freedom of persons in the service of the State to leave their employment. The Committee notes that by virtue of sections 178 to 181 of ZATU No. AN VI-008/FP/TRAV of 26 October 1988, issuing the General Conditions of Employment of the Public Service, which repeals ZATU No. AN IV-011 bis CNR-TRAV, of 25 October 1986, public servants who wish to resign shall address a written request two months before their presumed date of departure to the Minister of the Public Service, who shall issue his decision to accept or reject the resignation within those two months. Public servants who leave their functions despite a refusal by the competent authority, before the explicit acceptance or before the date set by the authority, are dismissed on the grounds of abandoning their duties.

The Committee requests the Government to indicate the consequences resulting from dismissal for abandoning one's duties, particularly as regards pension rights, and to supply information on the practice that is followed as regards the acceptance or rejection of resignation requests submitted by public servants.

In this connection, the Committee notes the information that incentives for the voluntary departure of public servants are being planned by the Government. The Committee requests the Government to supply information on the measures that are planned or have been adopted in this respect and on the impact of these measures on the application of the provisions respecting resignation contained in the General Conditions of Employment of the Public Service.
