Double Salary payment announced for civil servants

 

Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Dr. Timothy Harris.

 

This, he said, while in Parliament during the Budget Presentation on Tuesday. It also comes as the Federation continues to battle the Covid-19 pandemic. 

 

The last time public servants, including employees of the various Statutory Bodies and Pensioners, received an extra month’s salary was in Dec. 2019.

 

However, following the announcement, as there is a general elation for civil servants, a release from the Nevis Island Administration (NIA), states:

 

“that the salary date for the month of December 2021 is set for (today) 15th December and it is customary for the amounts payable for salaries to be submitted to the bank at least 48 hours before the salary due date so as to allow the banking system sufficient time to credit the salary payments to the accounts of all employees.”
