2015 GEO 4

2015-2016 - NPL

2017 - 3/4 load

2017 - outstanding contribution PB(1.5)

2018 - back to full load
2018 - outstanding contribution

ear marked to take on SH role in 2019. CEP also raised (informed by RO)in ranking exercise this year.

when when when will I be promoted to GEO 5????? seems like forever. was told by SL once that NPL and 3/4 affects promotion.

What is your performance grade like?
2017- what do you mean by outstanding contribution and PB 1.5. OCA? And C grade?

If you indicate that you are not keen to take up KP position, your CEP might be readjusted to GEO5. You cannot progress to SEO grade unless you are willing to take up KP position in future.

You won't get your promotion anytime soon, since you are "marked" to retire at GEO5.

Promotion is dependent on your ability and potential to take up responsibilities at the next sub grade. Typically GEO 4 to GEO 5 takes longer. I know of colleagues who are still Geo 4 waiting to GEO 5 but already holding LH or SH positions for a few years.


Increment for GEO 4 to GEO 5 is about 400-450 , including and depending on merit increment, which is tied to your CEP and PB.

In lieu of your NPL and 3/4, I will think about 2 years after you get appointed as SH, unless your salary almost hits the ceiling scale, whichever is earlier.

Wana ask if first semester full time and second semester half workload, how will the december holiday pay be calculated?

If I were to hazard a guess I'll say it's your current (half?) salary as of Dec. For those promoted in Oct, bonuses are still calculated based on latest salary - suspect the same will apply for those who get a cut.

But you can probably update us later this month!
