Pay guidance
The Treasury operates a ‘Pay Remit’ system to ensure all pay awards in the Civil Service are consistent with public sector pay policy, affordable and tailored to meet the needs of individual businesses.
The main objectives of the Pay Remit process are:
- to ensure that pay increases are affordable and offer value for money to the taxpayer
- to ensure that levels of pay are set at the amount necessary to recruit, retain and motivate staff.
