STARTING this Thursday, all Division 3 officers in the Public Service - typically those who perform clerical work or frontline operational functions - will continue at the same grade and salary when they are re-employed.自存倉This will bring them on par with their peers from Division 4, who have already been on these re-employment terms since April last year.The announcement by the Public Service Division (PSD) came a week after a new survey by the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) found that the public sector lagged behind private companies when it comes to pay packages for older workers who are rehired.In a statement yesterday, PSD said that this latest revision would provide "greater certainty" for lower-wage public officers when they are re-employed after they turn 62.The revision was one of the outcomes of the PSD's review of Public Service re-employment guidelines. This review, which started earlier this year, was done in consultation with public sector unions and took into account private sector practices.In the past two years, nine out of every 10 retiring public officers have been offered re-employment.Currently, most public officers who are re-employed at the same grade have their salaries adjusted to the mid-point of their salary range. This, said the PSD, is in line with the Tripartite Guidelines on Re-employment of Older Employees.The rev迷你倉新蒲崗sed Public Service guidelines will also see more Division 1 and 2 officers continuing at the same grade and salary when they are re-employed.For those whose salaries are to be adjusted, however, the adjustment will be capped at 15 per cent in line with private sector market practice after the Retirement and Re-employment Act came into effect in January last year.With this newest revision coming into effect, PSD said that the majority of public officers will be re-hired at the same grade and salary. "PSD will continue to monitor private sector practice and will offer fair re-employment terms that are reflective of market practice," said the division's director of career development and management Tan Hoe Soon. "The Public Service values the experience and skills of our mature officers. With the revised terms, we hope to encourage more able officers to continue working after they turn 62 years."For the record, NTUC's poll of 118 firms last year found that nearly eight in 10 unionised companies in the private sector did not cut the pay of their older workers when they were re-hired.In contrast, public servants had to endure pay cuts of as much to 30 per cent when they were re-employed at the age of 62.NTUC used the survey results to strengthen the labour movement's push for greater change in the public sector when it came to its re-employment guidelines.迷你倉出租
