He expressed hope that about 5,000 retired teaches would be engaged through the portal.
Giving details about the portal, the official said that it would make the engagement process of retired teachers easy, transparent and hassle-free. The retired teachers below the age of 65 years from Haryana government, other state government and privately managed schools required to register themselves on the portal, and fill up their choices of schools in order of merit in the district of their choice.
The vacancy position would be displayed on the portal so as to enable them to get the present status of vacancies. This would help to make available a panel of retired teachers thus making available teachers throughout the year.
Das further stated that retired teachers would be given remuneration according to the state government's re-employment policy. He said that the department would soon start the online process for transfer of teachers.
