The rules that regulate retired government officials are likely to be tightened amid the country's enhanced anti-graft campaign, analysts said.
The Organization Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee reiterated on Tuesday that retired officials may not violate Party rules by being employed as independent board members in companies.
All retired officials, including those who hold jobs at universities or NGOs, are prohibited from getting part-time jobs at companies, an official from the department told Xinhua News Agency.
In October, the department issued a regulation that government officials who have retired for less than three years are not allowed to get jobs in companies whose business is related to the officials' former administrative duties.
Even after more than three years of retirement, if former officials want to get jobs at such companies, they must get the approval of the government department where they used to work, the regulation states.Â
