The Salary and Remuneration Commission (SRC) on Thursday, July 18, froze salary review for all other public officers for the Financial Year 2024/2025.
SRC announced that this was due to financial constraints that had resulted after President William Ruto declined to sign the Finance Bill, 2024, into law.
“The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) has deferred the implementation of the salary review for all other public officers in the financial year 2024/2025 until further notice, contingent upon the availability of funding,” a statement from SRC read in part.
“This decision is informed by there being no allocated budget for the implementation of the advised remuneration and benefits for all other public officers for the financial year 2024/2025, which was to take effect in July 2024.”
Following the financial difficulties facing the country, SRC announced that it had initiated dialogue with the National Treasury so as to ensure the fiscal sustainability of the public compensation bill.
