This initiative aims to provide financial ease to CDA employees, enabling them to make necessary arrangements for Eid and celebrate the occasion with dignity and peace of mind. The Authority has made special administrative arrangements to streamline internal processes, ensuring that there are no delays in salary transfer across all directorates and formations of CDA. Strict monitoring mechanisms have also been put in place to ensure timely compliance by all concerned offices. While ensuring facilitation of employees, CDA is simultaneously adhering to the austerity measures announced by the Federal Government.
