Under Chapter 7 of the Public Service Act 2008 (The Act), appeals may be made to the Commission Chief Executive for the review of certain decisions which affect public service officers.
The Act states which decisions may be appealed against, and who can appeal. The Act also provides information on how the process is to be conducted.
Appeals provide an independent and impartial avenue for public service employees to have decisions that affect them reviewed and ensure that principles of natural justice are applied in decision making.
The jurisdiction of the Commission Chief Executive to hear and determine appeals is set out in Chapter 7 of the Public Service Act 2008.
The Commission Chief Executive also issues Directives which supplement the Act. The Appeals Directive (No. 15/09) provides more specific rules and requirements for the appeal process.
The Public Service Commission also works with government agencies to develop fair, transparent and accountable decision making processes and practices.
