1. This minute is in pursuance of Personnel Management Minute 0010/2005 of 12 August 2005 and must be read in conjunction with that document.
2. As you are aware, the approval of salary progressions to employees is subject to the prescriptions of the Staff Performance Management and Development System.
3. Although a serious appeal was made in the above-mentioned minute to managers and supervisors to submit all Annexure E forms (Performance Certificates) to Head Office by 31 August 2005, thousands of forms are still outstanding. This failure to submit Annexure E penalises the employees concerned as they do not receive their rightful monthly salaries. If grievances are received in this regard, supervisors will be requested to provide explanations.
4. An extension has now been granted until 14 October 2005 for the submission of Annexure E forms so that salary increases can be implemented in October 2005. Salary progression for those whose Annexure E forms are not received by that date will be considered only after the entire evaluation process for public service personnel has been completed.
5. A sincere, yet urgent, appeal is made to you to co-operate in this regard.
6. Kindly inform all public service personnel under your control of the contents of this minute.
