Absent officials to be docked

TANGERANG: The Tangerang municipal administration announced on
Saturday that it would cut three percent from the salaries of all
employees who failed to show up for work on Monday after the long
Idul Fitri holidays.

Municipal Secretary Harry Mulya Zain said that his office
would also announce publicly the names of all employees who
failed to show up for work.

"We will hold a morning gathering when all staff members and
employees resume work on Monday and we will inspect every
department after the gathering as well as check the attendance
lists."

Harry said that it had long been a habit for some staff
members and employees to fail to show up at the office on the
first day back at work after the holidays.

All administration staff members and employees have been on
holiday since Nov. 12. -- JP
