SPA to update site on lowest starting pay


PUTRAJAYA: The lowest starting salary for government positions published on the Public Services Commission (SPA) website will be updated on Dec 1, says its chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Jailani Muhamed Yunus.

He said it aligns with the implementation of the Public Service Remuneration System (SSPA), which stipulates that the lowest starting salary will be increased to RM1,500.

SSPA, which replaces the Malaysian Remuneration System, comes into effect on Dec 1.

“When the Public Service Department as the policy maker has set a date for the implementation of the SSPA based on the circular, SPA will update any information available on its website,” he told reporters during the SPA Open Day @ Putrajaya 2024 here yesterday, Bernama reported.

Ahmad Jailani was responding to a question on why salary rates displayed on the SPA website have yet to be updated in tandem with the latest government policy update.

Meanwhile, he said SPA has received about 1.14 million applications for vacancies in the service, indicating a growing interest among the public in serving as civil servants.
