12/13 …………

Don't pharmacists start at P12? How do you end at 12/13

possible reason is admin want to boost the pay of the entry levels without spending too much. cuz entry level pay reported by salary reviews, but there's limited data on followup pay

AHP not considered civil servant, also use CEP ?

Why is pharmacy AAA/A but monthly income is one of the lowest on the graduate survey?

Welcome to MOH And MOHH

Spent 3 yrs in SGH as a Senior Patient Service Associate, not sure what rank (NN8?) which is nothing cos everyone also start as SPSA.

Managed to climb to PSAE on my 3rd yr (2 consecutive A grading, one A*) .

My starting pay was $2.4K (diploma only) with Recruit Express, then after 1 year became $2.5K. During Covid they bumped us up steadily so that by the time I left to go private after 3 yrs I was at $3.1K.

The reason why I left was because my friend had a lobang with her private doctor so i joined them for $3.5K, which if I stayed in SGH, would have taken me another 2 years of increment.

benefits is good, ShieldPlan paid for, Flexi $1k-$3k based on years of service

Now, I have another lobang to go back to public, this time NUHS as Medical Informatics (IT?)

I see glassdoor reviews saying the range should start at $4k but I'm not sure if I can command that seeing as I dont have degree. I did start a CompSci degree but only graduate in 2025/26.

Should I try propose?

This thread perhaps most realistic on this forum... all the other threads got big fairy cannon this thread is just realism

I agree. And I think healthcare workers and other social service sectors require the most support considering their nature of work and working hours.

Heard from HR jump from MOHH to public healthcare institutions zero amount increments. is this really true?

In this case nobody will want to stay in healthcare, the only way to increase pay is via annual increment?
