Kyrgyzstan introduces new performance evaluation system for civil servants

Kyrgyzstan is implementing a new performance evaluation system for its civil servants, according to a decree signed by President Sadyr Japarov. The initiative aims to boost the efficiency of public administration and local government bodies.

Under the new procedure, state and municipal employees will undergo regular performance assessments. Reports on these evaluations must be submitted twice a year to the State Agency for Civil Service and Local Government Affairs. The deadline for the first half of the year's results is September 15, and for the second half, it is March 15.

These evaluation results will be integrated into the automated e-Kyzmat system via a dedicated "Performance Evaluation" module. The State Agency for Civil Service, in collaboration with the Kyzmat institution, is tasked with maintaining and developing this system, ensuring data accuracy and timely entry.

Additionally, President Japarov has amended a 2022 decree concerning the civil servant attestation system. The provisions related to attestation have been removed, with the decree now solely regulating the probation period procedure. The new system is set to take effect ten days after its publication.
