The federal government has decided to send a large number of civil servants to the “Surplus Pool” in line with its ongoing rightsizing exercise. According to the directive of the Establishment Division to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), a considerable number of civil servants are anticipated to be enlisted in the Surplus Pool in the wake of the ongoing drive of the federal government on rightsizing. In order to make timely and efficient adjustment of surplus employees possible, it is requested that all available vacancies for direct recruitment in Ministry / Division / Departments be reported to this office immediately in the specified format. The FBR has issued instructions to all Chief Collectors/Directors General of Customs field formations, Collectors/Directors of Customs field formations, and Collectors of Customs (Appeals/ Adjudication) on the disposal of federal government employees in the Surplus Pool. The information pertaining to Collectorates/Directorates under the administrative jurisdiction of the respective Chief Collector / Director General Offices may please be furnished to the Board. However, the Offices of Collector (Appeal/ Adjudication) will furnish the information on their own. It is requested that the respective companies compile the information (Number of Vacancies against Direct Quota Against Promotion Quota) pertaining to administrative jurisdiction and send the same to the Establishment Division, which FBR added.
