RM700 special aid for civil servants, RM350 for pensioners

 


BUDGET 2022 | Civil servants in Grade 56 and below will receive an RM700 one-off special aid from the government - RM100 more than for this year.

Meanwhile, government pensioners will receive a one-off aid of RM350.

These are among several goodies for civil servants and pensioners announced by Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz in Budget 2022 today.

Besides the one-off aid, the government is also increasing the leave replacement allocation for civil servants - especially frontliners - from 150 days to 160 days.

The government would also allow civil servants to make early claims for leave replacement, from 50 percent to 80 percent, to fund expenses such as children's higher education or for performing the hajj.

Profit rates from the civil servant computer and smartphone financing scheme have also been lowered from four percent to two percent.

The government has also allocated RM365 million to maintain civil servants' quarters. - Mkini
