The number of public servants exchanging their leave days for cash dropped by nearly 70 percent in the financial year ended June 2023, spooked by tightened rules by the State aimed at curbing abuse.

A report by the Public Service Commission (PSC) shows that only 4,216 officers commuted leave days during the 2022/2023 Financial Year, down from 14,118 in the previous year.
