                                                     9

On appointment, the appointee will serve a 10-month probationary period in the post of Programme Executive
– Energy Modelling. No probation period will be longer than 11 months.

WORKING WEEK

the requirements of the position. No additional payment will be made for extra attendance as the rate of

ANNUAL LEAVE
The annual leave allowance for this post will be 29 working days per annum. This leave is based on a five-day
week and is exclusive of the usual public holidays. Annual Leave per annum is to be taken at a time or times
convenient to SEAI.

THE ORGANISATION OF WORKING TIME ACT 1997
The terms of the Organisation of Working Time Act, 1997 will apply, where appropriate, to this appointment.

SICK LEAVE
Payment for absences through illness will apply, during properly certified sick absence, provided there is no
evidence of permanent disability for service in accordance with the provisions of SEAI’s sick leave scheme.
These sick leave arrangements are subject to any changes arising in the terms and conditions of sick leave in
respect of the public service generally.

Staff members paying the Class A rate of PRSI will be required to sign a mandate authorising the Department
of Social Protection to pay any benefits due under the Social Welfare Acts direct to SEAI. Payment of salary
during illness will be subject to the staff member making the necessary claims for social insurance benefit to
the Department of Social Protection within the required time limits.

SUPERANNUATION AND RETIREMENT
The appointee will be offered the appropriate superannuation terms and conditions as prevailing in the Public
Service at the time of being offered an appointment. In general, an appointee who has never worked in the
Public Service will be offered appointment based on membership of the Single Public Service Pension Scheme
(“Single Scheme”). Full details of the Scheme are at http://www.per.gov.ie/pensions

The key provisions attaching to membership of the Single Scheme are as follows:

Pensionable Age
The minimum age at which pension is payable is 66 (rising to 67 & 68 in line with State Pension age changes).

                                                   10
Retirement Age
Scheme members must retire at the age of 70.

Pension Abatement
If the appointee has previously been employed in the Civil or Public Service and is in receipt of a pension from
the Civil or Public Service or where a Civil/Public Service pension comes into payment during his/her re-
employment that pension will be subject to abatement in accordance with the Public Service Pensions (Single
Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012.

If the appointee was previously employed in the Civil Service and awarded a pension under voluntary early
retirement arrangements (other than the Incentivised Scheme of Early Retirement (ISER), Department of
Health Circular 7/2010 VER/VRS or the Department of Environment, Community & Local Government Circular
Letter LG (P) 06/2013 which, as indicated above, renders a person ineligible for the competition) the
entitlement to that pension will cease with effect from the date of reappointment. Special arrangements will,
however be made for the reckoning of previous service given by the appointee for the purpose of any future
superannuation award for which the appointee may be eligible.

Ill-Health Retirement
For an individual who has retired from a Civil/Public Service body on the grounds of ill-health his/her pension
from that employment may be subject to review in accordance with the rules of ill-health retirement within the
pension scheme of that employment.

Pension treatment of existing public servants
While the default pension terms, as set out in the preceding paragraphs, consist of Single Scheme
membership, this may not apply to certain appointees. Full details of the conditions governing whether or not a
public servant is a Single Scheme member are given in the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and other
Provisions) Act 2012. However, the key exception case (in the context of this competition and generally) is that
a successful candidate who has worked in a pensionable (non-single scheme terms) capacity in the
public service within 26 weeks of taking up appointment, would in general not become a member of the
Single Scheme. In this case such a candidate would instead, where applicable, be offered membership of the
SEAI Pension Scheme and its associated Spouses’ and Children’s Pension Scheme. This would mean that the
abatement provisions above would apply, and in addition there are implications in respect of pension accrual
as outlined below:

Pension Accrual
The Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and other Provisions) Act 2012 introduced a 40-year limit on total
service that can be counted towards pension where a person has been a member of more than one pre-
existing public service pension scheme.

Additional Superannuation Contribution (ASC)
The appointment is subject to the additional superannuation contribution in accordance with the Financial
Emergency Measure in the Public Interest Act 2009

Incentivised Scheme for Early Retirement (ISER)
It is a condition of the Incentivised Scheme for Early Retirement (ISER) as set out in Department of Finance
Circular 12/09 that retirees, under that Scheme, are debarred from applying for another position in the same
employment or the same sector. Therefore, such retirees cannot apply while the above restrictions continue in
force.

                                                    11
Department of Health and Children Circular (7/2010)
The Department of Health Circular 7/2010 dated 1 November 2010 introduced a Targeted Voluntary Early
Retirement (VER) Scheme and Voluntary Redundancy Schemes (VRS). It is a condition of the VER scheme
that persons availing of the scheme will not be eligible for re-employment in the public health sector or in the
wider public service or in a body wholly or mainly funded from public moneys. The same prohibition on re-
employment applies under the VRS, except that the prohibition is for a period of 7 years, after which time any
re-employment will require the approval of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. People who availed
of either of these schemes are not eligible to compete in this competition while the above restrictions apply.

Collective Agreement: Redundancy Payments to Public Servants
The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform letter dated 28th June 2012 to Personnel Officers
introduced, with effect from 1st June 2012, a Collective Agreement which had been reached between the
Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and the Public Services Committee of the ICTU in relation to ex-
gratia Redundancy Payments to Public Servants. It is a condition of the Collective Agreement that persons
availing of the agreement will not be eligible for re-employment in the public service by any public service body
(as defined by the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Acts 2009 – 2011) for a period of 2
years from termination of the employment. Thereafter the consent of the Minister for Public Expenditure and
Reform will be required prior to re-employment. People who availed of this scheme and who may be successful
in this competition will have to prove their eligibility (expiry of period of non-eligibility) and the Minister’s consent
will have to be secured prior to employment by any public service body.

Declaration
Applicants will be required to declare whether they have previously availed of a public service scheme of
incentivised early retirement and/or the collective agreement outlined above. Applicants will also be required to
declare any entitlements to a Public Service pension benefit (in payment or preserved) from any other Public
Service employment and/or where they have received a payment-in-lieu in respect of service in any Public
Service employment.

OTHER CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT

Further information on the conditions of employment will be outlined in the contract of employment for the
successful candidate.
