Compendium of the RPA Guiding Principles

The Public Service Commission has produced 10 Guiding Principles and Associated Recommendations which have been accepted by the Executive. To assist the RPA transition and transformation, Government produced a Code of Practice on the Third Guiding Principle on Staff Transfers and a number of other Guidance Notes agreed across the affected sectors and in consultation with the Trade Unions. These offer practical guidance to the RPA Affected Employers on how to implement the Guiding Principles.
The Public Service Commission and the Office of the First Minister and deputy First Minister have published a compendium which brings together the Guiding Principles, a Code of Practice on Staff Transfers and Guidance Notes into one document.
We highly commend this compendium document to every organisation impacted by RPA and ask that it be brought to the attention of all affected staff. An electronic copy has also been produced and can be accessed from the following link:
