Government Blacklists Hundreds Of Civil Servants Who Resigned, Menpan RB: So There's A Deterrent

JAKARTA - Minister of Administrative Reform and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB) Tjahjo Kumolo stressed that the government will impose sanctions on hundreds of prospective civil servants (CPNS) and government employees with work agreements (PPPK) who resign after being declared to have passed the 2021 selection.

Referring to Article 54 of the PANRB Ministerial Regulation Number 27 of 2021 concerning the Procurement of Civil Servants, CPNS who resign will be given a sanction of not being able to apply (blacklist) on ASN admissions for the next one year period.

Likewise for PPPK who resigned, as stated in Article 35 of the PANRB Regulation Number 29/2021 concerning the Procurement of PPPK for Functional Positions and Article 41 of the PANRB Regulation No. 28/2021 concerning the Procurement of PPPK for the Functional Position of Teachers in Regional Agencies in 2021.

"If any of them resign, as is the case now, they will be given strict and severe sanctions so as not to harm the country and have a deterrent effect in the future," said Tjahjo in his statement, Monday, May 30.

Tjahjo emphasized that the withdrawal of 105 CPNS and 442 PPPK after passing the selection was detrimental to the state, both in terms of the budget that had been spent during the recruitment process for these government employees, as well as from the CPNS and PPPK formations that should have been filled empty.

Therefore, he asked the relevant ministries/institutions, especially the State Civil Service Agency (BKN) so that the abandoned formation could be filled again if the process of determining the Employee Identification Number (NIP) had not been carried out.

So that this condition does not happen again, Minister Tjahjo said that he would strengthen the CPNS and PPPK procurement system as a whole, both at the announcement stage, selection of basic competencies and fields using the Computer Assisted Test (CAT), determination of final results, determination of NIP, up to the appointment of ASN.

"We in the Panselnas Team together with BKN and other relevant agencies will tighten the selection process until the CPNS and PPPK are accepted," he said.
