The system is introduced on the directions of Director-General of Police C. Sylendra Babu
The Cuddalore district police have introduced weekly-off system for the personnel to ensure a healthy work-life balance and enable them to function more efficiently.
The new system came into effect on Friday. Police personnel from the level of Grade II Constables to Head Constables would be given a day off every week.
Though a system of a day off was already in force, police personnel attached to various wings, invariably ended up working on all days, owing to a shortage of manpower. The personnel were paid Extra Time Remuneration (ETR) of ₹250 per day for this.
