Civil Servants: Performance Related Pay

Answered by Satvir Kaur
For the Senior Civil Service (SCS), the performance management framework sets out a series of ‘minimum standards’, which requires individuals to deliver a threshold level of financial management, cross-system leadership, and people management, including D&I. These minimum standards supplement business delivery objectives, which attract bonuses, and are driven by ministerial and departmental priorities. Individuals that fail to meet the minimum standards are deemed underperforming and placed on a performance development plan.
For Civil Service grades below the SCS, it is for individual departments to determine pay and performance arrangements for this cadre.
