Merit Selection in the public service under threat
14 June 2013
Get your petitions in today, 14 June
The NSW Government’s decision to tear up the Public Sector Employment and Management Act and replace it with its Government Sector Employment Bill exposes the Government’s intention to remove fairness and transparency in selection processes throughout the service.
If the Bill is passed in its current form then there will be no statutory requirement to advertise positions or to select on the basis of merit.
This is just one of the many concerns the PSA has with this Bill in its current form.
Please sign the PSA petition to stop the Bill from passing through the Parliament unamended.
