The penalty time shall be calculated from the date when the penalty decision is issued. Received a penalty decision, proving that he was punished. Before receiving the punishment decision, the punishment result has not yet been produced. Therefore, it must be calculated from the date of receiving the punishment decision.

The effective punishment decision refers to the time when the punishment decision takes legal effect. The entry into force of the decision to terminate punishment refers to the time when the decision to terminate punishment takes legal effect. According to the provisions of article 46, the decision on punishment and the decision to lift the punishment shall take effect as of the date of making it. Specifically, there are two ways for the disciplinary decision and dismissal decision to take effect: (1) the effective time of the unapproved disciplinary decision and dismissal decision. Decisions on punishment and lifting of punishment that do not require approval shall take effect as of the date when the punishment decision-making organ makes the decision on punishment and lifting of punishment. (two) the decision of punishment and the decision of lifting the punishment that need to be approved shall take effect as of the date of approval by the approving authority. According to the provisions of relevant laws and regulations, the punishment authority of civil servants in different levels of administrative organs is different. For example, if the supervisory organ intends to give warning, demerit, demerit or demotion to the personnel appointed by the people's government at the same level, the supervisory organ will directly make a supervisory decision to punish them and report them to the people's government at the same level for the record; If it is proposed to be dismissed or dismissed, the supervisory organ shall put forward the punishment opinions to the people's government at the corresponding level, and after the approval of the people's government at the corresponding level, the supervisory organ shall issue a punishment decision. Therefore, the effective time of different punishment decisions and dismissal decisions is different. In general, the effective date of the disciplinary decision and the decision to terminate the disciplinary action is the date when the disciplinary decision-making organ makes the disciplinary decision and the decision to terminate the disciplinary action. However, if, according to the provisions of relevant laws and regulations, the punishment decision-making organ needs to report to the relevant authorities for approval after putting forward the opinions on punishment and lifting the punishment, the effective date of the punishment decision and lifting the punishment decision is the date approved by the relevant authorities. At the same time, the effective date of the punishment decision is the starting date of the punishment period of the civil servants of the administrative organ who are punished.
