The Pay Trend Survey Committee on Wednesday unanimously validated the findings of a pay trend survey report that suggested a pay rise of up to 4.12 percent for civil servants. It points to a salary increment of 4.12 percent for seniors, 2.64 percent for middle-ranking staff and 1.17 percent for juniors. The committee will submit the report to the government next, after which the Executive Council will make the final decision once it considers five other factors on top of the findings to decide the final pay rises for the more than 170,000 civil servants in the city. The other factors under consideration are the state of the economy, cost-of-living changes, staff pay claims, civil service morale and the government's fiscal position. Edited by Tony Sabine
