WTF Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 29 minutes ago, Roger Mexico said: The fact that it's not full time (0.8 FTE?) is fairly telling isn't? It's clearly been designed for a particular person, if it was a serious new job it would be full time and 0.8 isn't enough of a reduction to be cost-saving. Probably someone back from maternity leave whose full-time post has been earmarked for someone else would be my suspicion. the hours would fit in with having to do the school runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyWolf Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Who actually decides or makes up these jobs? Also what will they actually do apart from the little roadshows Defa seems to put on. My guess another one from Bangor uni or someone known within the system who fancies dropping a few hours. They’ll be Seagrass farmers next claiming subsidies. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the politicians certainly don't, as was flagged up by Ms Edge during the last administration, there are concerns about the "unauthorised" burgeoning Govt headcount and it's now due to be looked at by COMIN. Good luck with that. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are experiencing a high volume of patients at the moment. You are currently 17th in the queue for a resuscitation team. Perhaps you would consider having an emergency on a different day, or using our app. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-Believer Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Doubtless this lot as previously discussed on these boards and any minions that answer to them will be part of the figures, along with the army of "Blue Carbon Capture" officers and grub counters in DEFA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Question 9 in the Keys yesterday, audio is here: https://www.tynwald.org.im/business/listen/AgainFiles/O-202201-0142a.mp3 and Hansard is here (p22) Firstly it wasn't about civil servants but government employees (including teachers, nurses and so on) a larger group of people. Secondly, because it was a question about recruitment procedures, it was about new employees not extra ones. So if the 770 had been replacing 1000 who had resigned or retired, then total numbers would have gone down. Though it didn't include either existing government employees moving to new jobs or temporary ones. What Moorhouse was trying to find out was whether people's qualifications were checked if OHR received information that they might be dodgy, even if this happened after appointment and particularly if they were re-checked when moving internally to a new role. Lord-Brennan claimed they were, but seemed rather uncertain and said no records were kept of any such information or the resultant investigation carried out. She also said they were rare but that might just suggest that anything received info was treated as 'too embarrassing and too much like hard work' and fed into the Ashford shredder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you wonder why we need them in the first place. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asitis Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Petty bureaucracy runs unabated on the island and makes life difficult in many areas. However as we are overrun with bureaucrats this should be no surprise , and I get the distinct impression that finding something to do is top of the list of priorities. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banker Posted January 27, 2022 Author Share Posted January 27, 2022 Teachers wanting to add more to costs, offered a pay rise but as usual want more for less work! UK have told them to Foff, we should do similar https://gef.im/2022/01/27/school-leaders-to-vote-on-pay-deal/?fbclid=IwAR2pj3z9Jk66ew37K9ExOe4H0NnD_u2Ep7s2tEzpKm5FINkacWC7y6jdoUc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
