KUWAIT CITY, April 1: According to sources from the Ministry of Electricity, Water, and Renewable Energy, the Administrative Affairs Sector is currently finalizing the annual evaluations of the ministry’s more than 30,000 employees across technical and administrative sectors, reports Al-Jarida daily.
The evaluation process, conducted in accordance with regulations and laws set by the Civil Service Commission, includes factors such as the number of absences throughout the year, among others. It is expected that the evaluation process will be completed in April, with bonuses disbursed in May following approval by the Undersecretary and Minister.
After bonus disbursement, the Ministry will establish a grievances committee to address complaints from employees who were not included in the bonus for various reasons. The committee will thoroughly review complaints and reward deserving individuals accordingly.
Additionally, the ministry is currently seeking approvals from regulatory authorities for a tender aimed at delivering electricity to the eastern region of Sabah Al-Ahmad City. Efforts are being made to expedite electricity delivery through coordination with the General Corporation for Housing Welfare, responsible for the city’s construction.
Furthermore, the Ministry is prioritizing modernization, operation, comprehensive maintenance, and replacement of air conditioning units and accessories in electrical substations, particularly in anticipation of rising temperatures during the summer season. A tender has been launched for air conditioning maintenance in main electrical substations across the Jahra, Capital, and Farwaniya governorates. The deadline for submitting bids for this tender has been postponed to May 14.
