Civil Service pay increments

Hi

Sorry if there is a thread already on this. Just looking for some clarification.

So I was newbie in the the Civil Service last September as a CO in the DSP

Am I right in stating that in Sept this year when I am 1 year in my role and my probation is signed off I will go to the 2nd wage (588.60) on the chart below? Thanks

Clerical officer (PPC)
555.90 – 588.60 – 596.90 – 613.11 – 637.03 – 660.90 – 684.76 – 702.15 – 721.85 – 744.73 – 760.83 – 783.48 – 805.98 – 841.11 – 868.70¹ – 881.37²

That is my understanding, yes

Yes that’s the way it works

Yes, although it might be more than that from the public sector pay increases.

Technically it could be no if your performance wasn't up to par, but that's very rare.

It will be linked to your PMDS - the one you should have done sometime in January or February. You need to have a Satisfactory rating. But if you didn't, and you were on probation, you'd obviously be well aware of that by now.

I think you should also skip the fourth band (ie: 596.90 → 637.03 after three years).

Kind of…your pmds will give a basic overview but theres an actual probation page they can log into and see what theyre manager said at each one. Also technically probation is finished after 9 months, 9 is your final manager assessment, 12 months is just the hr one so once you got 3 passes with no negatives your done.

Yes. But an increment being paid is linked to your pmds being signed off as satisfactory.

Increment yeah, sorry i just meant in terms of if its their first year once they're passing probation then they should be getting the satisfactory too so once the probation says all good so should the pmds

That’s not going to happen. It’s not the way it works

Agreed. They kind of go hand in hand - probation and year one PMDS!

Yes it is. You will skip twice. For eg pt 4 and pt 8 on the CO scale. Or if you get promoted to EO before you skip pt 8 you will skip pt 4 of the EO scale.

You get a salary not a wage.
