The rates of pay hikes for civil servants, which will be implemented in December, will be announced before the tabling of the 2025 Budget in October, said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
He said it has been a long time since the last salary adjustment for civil servants.
“While we expect them to work harder, there has been no review of salary adjustment and fair reward for them for at least the past 10 years.
“That’s why I said it is our responsibility to give what is possible and reasonable to civil servants.
“Insya-Allah, I will announce (the rates) before the tabling of the national budget this year,” said Anwar in a speech at the Prime Minister’s Department Excellent Service Award 2023 ceremony in Putrajaya today.
The review of the Public Service Remuneration System (SSPA) was undertaken by the government last year after the last review was conducted in 2013.
Following the completion of the review on May 1 this year, Anwar announced that civil servants will enjoy a salary hike of over 13 percent starting December, the highest increase in the nation’s history.
