    SPEECH BY DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER TEO CHEE HEAN AND MINISTER IN CHARGE OF THE CIVIL SERVICE PUBLIC SERVICE DIVISION (PRIME MINISTER’S OFFICE) COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY 2012 1 MARCH 2012 Preamble 1. Mr Chairman, Sir, I would like to thank the Members for their interest and support in the Public Service. Caring for Our Employees Re-employment 2. This year’s Budget has committed to building a fair and inclusive society, and the Public Service will play its part as a responsible employer. Mr Heng Chee How asked for an update on re-employment in the Public Service. The new Public Service guidelines on re-employment for retiring officers took effect on 1 July 2011, six months ahead of national legislation. 3. Even before 1 July 2011, the Public Service was already re-employing many of its retired officers. In the first half of 2011, 385 officers or 74% of those who retired were re-employed. In the second half of the year after the guidelines took effect, 448 officers or 81% of those who retired were re- employed. This is a 7 percentage point increase. 4. Of the 107 officers who were not re-employed from 1 July to 31 December 2011, 48 did not meet the qualifying criteria such as the minimum performance requirement. 52 chose not to be re-employed. The remaining 7 officers were not re-employed due to reasons such as poor health and lack of suitable positions. 5. Agencies have the flexibility to re-employ officers who did not meet the qualifying criteria. In the second half of 2011, 22 such officers were re- employed as they were assessed to be able to continue contributing to the organisation.
