The Board of Directors of Peshawar Electric Supply Company has approved an annual bonus for employees in recognition of their performance during the 2025-26 fiscal year.

According to an official notification, regular, contract, and deputation employees will receive a bonus equal to one month’s basic salary. Lump-sum and daily-wage employees will be awarded a bonus equivalent to one month’s initial basic pay.

The utility company stated that only employees who have remained on the payroll for at least six months will qualify for the incentive.

However, PESCO has excluded employees involved in corruption, power theft, or other forms of misconduct from receiving the bonus.

Employees facing investigations by the National Accountability Bureau, the Federal Investigation Agency, or any other inquiry body will also be ineligible.

The notification further states that employees who have received major disciplinary penalties will not qualify for the performance bonus.

Officials responsible for delays in net metering approvals, billing-related connections, or resolving complaints lodged through the 118 Complaint Portal will also be excluded from the incentive.

The announcement comes a day after Faisal Karim Kundi directed PESCO to avoid unannounced load-shedding across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, particularly in Dera Ismail Khan, during Muharram-ul-Haram.

During a meeting with a PESCO delegation led by Chief Executive Engineer Akhtar Hameed Khan, the governor was informed that equipment for the Band Korai Grid Station had been delivered, paving the way for its early inauguration.

Officials also said the Dera Ismail Khan 220-KV Grid Station would be inaugurated after pending legal issues are resolved.
