What is Cadre

Encyclopedia of Organizational Knowledge, Administration, and Technology
Cadre is the distinct functional sub-division of the government bureaucracy in Bangladesh. Each cadre consists of a certain number of posts. The strength of each cadre has been laid down in the composition and cadre rules of the respective cadres. Recruitment to the cadre services is made through open competitive examination by the Public Service Commission. Once one joins a cadre, he/she needs to serve that cadre throughout his/her career. All civil servants appointed by the Bangladesh Civil Seervice Examination belong to class I cadre services.
