While commendable work during natural calamities, outstanding achievement in sports at international level, and a long, clean record of service are typically valid grounds for various service awards including commendation discs, accident-free driving for a specified period (like ten years) is less likely to be a direct criterion for a high-level award like a Director General’s Commendation Disc compared to extraordinary actions or achievements.
– Grounds like distinguished service during calamities, significant achievements (sports), or overall exemplary long service (15 years clean record) are commonly recognized through commendations or awards.
– Accident-free driving, while indicative of good discipline and adherence to rules, is often considered part of maintaining a good service record or might be recognized through specific driving-related incentives or awards at a lower level, rather than a top commendation disc unless the driving involved specific acts of gallantry or exceptional skill under duress.
The specific criteria for awarding commendation discs vary by organization. However, generally, higher-level commendations are reserved for acts of bravery, exceptional performance of duty beyond the call of duty, outstanding achievements, or consistently high standards over a very long period. Among the given options, accident-free driving, while positive, is the least likely to meet the threshold for a Director General’s commendation compared to the others.
