NARIP Office Assistant Retired Recruitment 2026: Overview
National Ayurveda Research Institute for Panchakarma (NARIP) is engaging an Office Assistant (Retired) on contract at Cheruthuruthy in Thrissur, Kerala. The institute works under the Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS), Ministry of Ayush. This is an administrative engagement for a retired government employee, rather than a clinical or research appointment.
The notice focuses on established office administration work within the institute. If you are considering returning to work after retirement, read the contract conditions carefully: the engagement does not create a right to a regular appointment. Your application is for the retired Office Assistant role specified in this notice.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Contract appointment: The institute describes this as a purely contractual engagement. You cannot claim regular appointment on the basis of this engagement.
- Termination: The institute may end the engagement at any time without notice. Keep this condition in mind when considering the appointment.
- Travel for attendance: The institute will not pay travel or daily allowance for attending the interview. You will need to make your own travel arrangements.
Application Submission Notes
