PUTRAJAYA: The government is expected to announce a salary increment review of between two and five per cent for civil servants who have reached their maximum pay, in February.
Chief Secretary to the Government Datuk Seri Dr Ali Hamsa said the Public Services Department (JPA) would carry out an in-depth study to ensure civil servants who have reached their maximum pay or those with excellent records based on their Annual Performance Assessment Report but have not been promoted, are given due consideration.
“I do not want to see a civil servant with an excellent track record continuously receiving the same salary simply because he or she has reached the maximum salary scale.
“As such, the review is only for those on maximum pay. Even for this category of staff, only those who exceeded 80 per cent performance marks would be given the benefit. This is what I want to address.
“JPA is finalising the list. They are going through the service record. We have to discuss with Treasury on the financial implication. The government is very positive about it. They understand static pay is not an answer for a performing civil servant who is excellent,” he told reporters here yesterday.
Cuepacs president Datuk Omar Osman had earlier said 20 per cent or 280,000 of the 1.4 million civil servants fall under the category. — Bernama
