Documents submitted to the Legislative Council by the Civil Service Bureau indicated that from September 2023 to mid-January this year, 23 civil servants triggered the mandatory retirement mechanism due to persistently poor work performance.
Four civil servants were ordered to retire, two resigned after receiving notices, and four saw their performance improve to an acceptable level, thus allowing for a suspension of the mechanism, though they remain under a three-year monitoring period.
The cases of another 13 individuals are still ongoing. Since 2023, the government has simplified the mandatory retirement mechanism for civil servants with persistently poor work performance.
