Civil Service Increment

[258456]

May 2012 - Graduated (1st Class Honours, Science Degree)
Jun 2012 - Joined Civil Service (MX13, Office Job, Non-Scholar) => Pay 3800+
Jun 2013 - Promoted to MX12, Performance Grade B (2.5 mths) => 4300+
Apr 2014 - Promoted to MX11, Performance Grade A (3.0 mths) => 5000+

Question 1
From MX12 to MX11, promotion increment is $250 while merit increment (grade A) is $450+.
Does anyone know why promotion increment is so little? I am surprised because promotion is so rare in civil service.

Question 2
Anyway to guage my own CEP based on current progression and merit increment?
I understand that CEP does not mean that I will definitely reach them in my career.
I am curious because I am recently invited to a career development discussion with senior management.

hello dividend hermit

Count yourself lucky with high starting pay and large increments year on year. Your Ministry still have vacancies at middle to top tiers, hence they are probably grooming ppl to go up quick. If you are in a ministry that is starting to saturated. You won't move as fast.

Promotion Increment is a fixed sum. MX 12 to MX 11 is 250. MX 11 to MX 10 is XXX dollars. The other component is the MI. It is linked to your CEP, your latest performance grade and the overall economy. Overtime if you notice that within the same grade, same PB year on year but MI went up, very likely your CEP creeped up. Don't think so much. Contribute to your nation and your fellow SG folks bah.

Hi fellow civil servants, any idea the increment sum from MXGrade 11 to 11A? Is it $275 or $300? And for increment from Grade 11A to grade 10? Many thanks.

Hello, the total increment should be more than the amount u mentioned below. Rightfully, there should be two components, namely MI and promotional increment.

MI is already in the region of 300 to 400, depending on the PB.

Promotional increment is probably another 200-250.

in total, maybe around 500 to 600?

Could someone who have the facts educate us accurately? Thanks
