How much bonus to expect for Civil Servants this coming Dec 13?
 

Anybody heard from any sources?

July AVC this yr was 0.4
Hence I am predicting Dec AVC to be 0.6
It has always been the case of AVC in one yr is 1.0 just like last yr.

13 mth as standard is 1.0

so my guess would be 1.6 bonus for this coming dec.
what do u guys think? :o

1 + 0.35 months

none for those who are in charge of maintaining websites.

i can bet with u that it will be more than 0.35.

my guess is 0.8

Should be at least 1.6.. hope got pay increment for civil servant again.. haha.. btw, u guys got receive any year end gift like vouchers or items from ur ministry?.. last year my place gave us each $240 capital land vouchers each but due to tight regulations now they cutting to less than $100.. but this year not getting voucher instead choose for an iten from a list.. highest vote for the item than everyone gets it.. hope the psp dont get the highest vote man cos its worth so little..

i want to clarify that im referring to AVC

if you add AWS, my prediction is 1.8

which agency is this ?

y i dun have

i want to highlight this to PSD

cfm from prison lah

basket corporate gift and they intend to give PSP? your ministry/SB must be damn free everyday to give their staff psp to use.

My guess is tier percentage based on the different division status I, Div 1 - 4...

2 months of bonus

The higher the div level, the higher the bonuses?

So much meh?

U mean 1.0 for avc dec and 1.0 for 13th mth?

Expect at least 1.6.. btw, once get bonus on 12 dec, can i resign on the 12 itself and still retain my bonus?.. anyone from vital who know about this?, i am from ministry btw..

don't resign on the same date.
resign 1 month later.

Are u 100% sure or u experience it before?.. cos some guys says its at least end of dec..

SINGAPORE — The Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) has announced today that it has upgraded the GDP growth forecast for this year from 1.0 to 3.0 per cent, to 2.5 to 3.5 per cent, echoing the statements made by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in his National Day Message.


Last year when the growth was 1.3%, the year end bonus was 0.7. Based on this year's better growth, maybe higher?

If 1.3% = 0.7,

2.5% = 1.3??

Sorry I have a question here. I'm currently new to the ministry; just joined few months ago, on 1 year contract. Will I be entitled to the avc as well? Was told by my HR that I've the same benefits as perm staff, just that it's their practice to put all new hires on 1 year contract.

Thanks!

Prorated......

Thanks for replying! So that means I'll get the 13th month + avc, but the amount will be pro-rated.

I was worried that I won't get avc.

Avc
 

hi, this question is posted in response to the above post, I am a NIE trainee, i was told that i would only get the prorated 13th month bonus and no AVC, any kind soul could advise on this?

What is there to advise?

U just have to accept the reality.

it's quite silly to see so many dumb questions asked by civil servants.. and even dumber ans given..

why waste time predicting bonus? what differences does it make? and u expect solid prediction on this forum?

and if u have any questions related to your salary, why not ask your hr directly for clear ans instead of posting here when high chances of getting false info. and if ur hr told u sth, it is 99% true. why bother questioning and seeking advice here?

no wonder civil servants are getting a bad name...

Unpleasant people
 

Whats wrong with asking. it doesnt reflect well on you by asking ur hr dept about things like this especially if you just joined the ministry for half a year, what i heard are from my friends, i am just asking if there are people here who have experienced this before to advise, whats wrong with you ? if you dunno the answer, then just keep quiet, you dont have to insult others

just to give some light on a few things as i saw some questions posted,

1. for those who have worked less than a year, you sld receive the bonus be on a pro rated scale based on this: y/12 x approved bonus. e.g. u worked 6 mths in that calender yr and announced bonus is 1 mth aws + 1 mth avc. therefore 6/12 x 2mths.

2. based on experience, for those people who intends to resign after getting your yr end bonus, you are expected to stay till 31 Jan 14 in order to retain this bonus. (pls correct me if im wrong).

3. no one can be sure of the avs for now. but as mentioned, based on MTI forecast, the growth is good. however, we cannot expect too high as well. 2012 MYB was 0.5 and 2013 was 0.4. thus, govt can be more conservative and announce an amt for abt 0.5-0.75 avc 2013. but if MTI reports that Q4 2013 is doing very well, then the cs can expect to receive more in 2014, depending on your ministry, as diff ministry may have diff remuneration scheme.

just my 2 cents.

the lower div gets higher percentage, in view of helping low wage workers..

Last year 2012 civil get 0.3 (July ) + 0.7( Dec) + 1 AWS = 2 month

This year 2013 is 0.4 (July) + 0.8- 1( Dec) + 1 AWS = 2.2 - 2.4 mth

Most likely will be 2 month include AWS expect to be announced on 21 ,22 or 28 Nov

u shld correct ur post

first u predict 2.2 - 2.4 mths, n go on to say that 'most likely will be 2 month'

wtf ?

Nothing wrong. 2.2-2.4 refer to AVC + AWS for the whole of 2013.

Most likely 2 months is because he expects 1 month AVC + 1 month AWS in Dec, making it 2 months

assume 2.2months for the whole of 2013, plus not forgetting the april 2013 PB....miniumum 1.5 mth for C grader

total 12 + 3.7 ?

Tats for Div I.

For Div II, 'C' grade is 0.85.

nope, "C" got 1 mth lah

This thread is about the year end bonus lah.
Don't bring in performance bonus to confuse others.

no erection bonus this year?

Those who can't seem to grow up, pls step aside and not be involved in this discussion.

why bother discussing and predicting really? for what exactly? can win toto?

it's gonna be announced soon so why not just wait the news.

13th month + 1.1 month = 2.1 month bonus.
