The Nagaland Work Charged & Casual Employees Regulation Act, 2001
The Nagaland Work-Charged and Casual Employees Act, 2001 regulates the engagement, service conditions, and discharge of temporary, work-charged, and casual workers in government departments across Nagaland. It establishes a specialized Commission and Recruitment Boards to set staffing norms, fix wages, review existing temporary staff, and prevent unauthorized hiring beyond sanctioned requirements. The law protects workers by securing wages, granting gratuity upon discharge for eligible employees, prescribing leave and working hours, and providing age relaxations for temporary staff applying for regular government positions. It matters because it brings structured oversight, fairness, and accountability to temporary state employment while penalizing non-compliant officials.
