PUTRAJAYA (March 9): Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today directed the Public Service Department (PSD) to set up a promotion pathway for Grade 1 civil servants, namely administrative, clerical and finance assistants.
The Finance Minister said the special pathway, involving 125,000 civil servants, aims to allow those in Grade 1 to advance to Grade 5 under set conditions.
He said the move is necessary to provide lower-grade civil servants with career advancement opportunities under the Public Service Remuneration System (SSPA).
“Although promotions are available under SSPA, there is a need to ensure that the lowest category can progress further.
“Therefore, to improve career advancement opportunities, I have asked PSD to establish a promotion pathway from Grade 1 to Grade 5,” he said at a gathering with staff of the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) here.
