Assalam o Alaikum everyone,

Well, this thread is meant to question as well as discuss the work environment of Office Management Group and the ways to tackle complex issues that may arise. Replies from Seniors are much needed.

So to begin with, I question the following:

1. What is the standing of a fresh OMG officer posted as Section Officer after STP on the following issues?

a) Does he get a separate "closed room sort" office with Air Conditioner?

b) Does he get basic facilities at office like Telephone, Computer/Laptop with Internet etc.?

c) Does he works by himself or has he got some staff under him?

d) In case of any reporting staff, how much employees are directly under his control and what authority he enjoys over them?

e) What is authority of a Section Officer on the whole?

f) Since Secretariat has all the big guns sitting out there, so chances of office politics may be high and the staff of some Senior Officials may exploit their probable nuisance. You know shikayati and reporting culture etc. How to tackle with them?

Kindly provide your replies with regards to Islamabad Secretariat as well as any Secretariat. Waiting and thanks in advance .
