2016 - 2021 Combined Continuing Appointment Exercise is designated for the review of staff members who may be eligible for a continuing appointment as of 1 July 2021.

The Continuing Appointment Review Exercise will begin on 15 February 2023.

Staff members who became potentially eligible for a continuing appointment prior to and as of 1 July 2021 will receive an email from inspira on the date of the start of the exercise.

► What if I do not receive an email, but I believe I would have been eligible for a continuing appointment prior to 1 July 2021? 

- Staff members who believe they would have been eligible for a continuing appointment prior to 1 July 2021 and wish to be considered for the review must complete the required checklist in inspira and provide appropriate documentation, if necessary, by 10 March 2023.

► How many continuing appointments will be awarded?

- The number of possible continuing appointments is based on the ‘post envelope’ for the P/FS category and for the GS/related categories.

- The post envelopes for the years 2016 to 2021 have been calculated in accordance with ST/SGB/2011/9.

- The first phase of the continuing appointment exercise will review staff members to determine if and when they became eligible for a continuing appointment.
