Punjab Dentists Get Three-Year Retirement Extension
The Punjab Finance Department has approved a significant move, raising the retirement age for 113 Group-A doctors and dental faculty in the state’s dental education system. The retirement age will now be 65, a three-year extension from the previous limit of 62.
This decision, effective immediately, will retain the expertise of experienced professionals within the state’s dental healthcare infrastructure. The move is expected to bolster the quality of dental education and patient care in Punjab.
The extension is likely to provide relief to the state’s dental colleges facing potential staff shortages. The added years of service from these experienced professionals could significantly impact the quality of education and treatment provided.
This decision comes at a time when Punjab is focusing on strengthening its healthcare sector. The extended tenure of these experienced dental professionals will undoubtedly contribute to this crucial initiative.
