Big Companies often have to let go of their Employees as they are unable to pay off their Salaries. Not to mention, most paychecks come in late month after month.

They don’t have to look for other jobs or depend upon their children for financial support. This Retirement Policy is not available in any other kind of Job.

Less Workload

Private Sector Jobs also have a lot of external pressure from higher Management and Bosses, whereas in comparison to Corporate Stress, having a Government Job is way less stress-free.

Holidays – Public + National

A GOVT JOBS Employee has the benefit of enjoying more Holidays than the Traditional Private Sector Employees. They get to enjoy all the holidays in the Calendar as well as the Weekends. There is also a policy of paid leaves.

When it comes to Private Companies, the Workers minimum to no paid leave options. Most Companies have Saturday as a Working day and sometimes leaves can result in salary deductions.

Private Sector Employees have to sacrifice a chunk of their earning on Rent which keeps their Saving to the minimum. As for Government Employees, they can easily save up to INR 10,000 to INR 15,000 at least as rent.

Free Health Insurance

Medical Cost is climbing the ladders day by day. Private Hospitals have made a Business out of trading lives while Government Hospitals are crowded with more Patients than Beds.

As for a Government Employee, the Medical Facility for them and their family is secured. Their Jobs come with special health insurance facilities which seldom high range private firms can afford to provide for their Employees.

Free Allowances
