PUTRAJAYA (Aug 16): The government will improve aspects of performance appraisal, code of conduct and discipline management of civil servants in line with the revised Public Service Remuneration System (SSPA), which will come into effect on Dec 1.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said among the things that will be implemented is setting the eligibility criteria for Annual Salary Movement to only be applicable to officers who achieve a satisfactory level of performance and pass the disciplinary screening, with the PGT eligibility score being increased from 60% to 75%.
“This minimum score will also be used to determine low-performing officers who can be included in the Exit Policy - termination of service.
“The processing period for matters under the Exit Policy is also reduced from 36 months to only 18 months,” he said when addressing civil servants at the 19th edition of Majlis Amanat Perdana Perkhidmatan Awam (MAPPA) here Friday.
Anwar said the annual performance appraisal score for acting and promotion was also increased from 80% to 85%.
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister said the government will also create new regulations under the Public Officers (Conduct and Discipline) Regulations 1993 (PU(A)395) to address the issue of governance failures in public financial management and to introduce stricter disciplinary procedures for officers who are frequently absent from office without approval from their head of department.
He said a new annual performance appraisal system, MyPERFORMANCE, which focuses on five principles, namely fair, objective, transparent, relevant and separable; will be introduced to replace the Annual Performance Appraisal Report.
At the same time, Anwar wants relevant ministries to realign human resources to departments or agencies in need.
“We must look at the need to ensure that those whose services go directly to the people such as doctors in hospitals and police officers on the ground could focus on their fundamental duties and not be burdened with administrative tasks.
“This is to avoid waste of expertise and manpower,” he said.
