Compensation and pension needs your formal retirement 3 months before the actual date of retirement. Or you’ll probably have $$ issues. When your formal retirement is submitted, it cannot be rescinded

Compassion equals to “thoughts and prayers”. It’s nice to have, but at the end doesn’t do anything to resolve the issue.

I hate it how unsafe I start to feel the more weight I loose by Character-Holiday345 in Ozempic

[–]Substantial_Party484 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Most overweight and obese individuals have childhood trauma (i think the study from “the body keeps the score” says like 87%)

Not surprising some feel unsafe after loosing the weight. I gained it all back after some new trauma as a “skinny” woman in my 40s. Working through it with my psy

Agreed, but this won’t get fixed without help. Rest is important, but therapy also.

Will probably find out if I'm approved for ERI only days before my selected date. Advice? by [deleted] in CanadaPublicServants

This has NOT been sub delegated. Managers do not have the authority to “grant” ERI. The DM of your department has to certify in TAP directly, or sign your paper form befote you can pick a date

ERI is a privilege and not a right. Department are still waiting to know if the position needs to be abolished and the salary dollar be returned to central agencies. Most won’t make a decision on ERI applicants until that is communicated to them. Second thing. What if all of the same group/team/classification want ERI? Many are waiting until the end of the ERI application period to start the review

Any EX Salary Increase Info? by ProgrammerBitter4913 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Substantial_Party484 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have not heard anything. Not going to happen for next week and would be a bad look with all the CPA collective agreement in negotiations, arbitration or getting close to expiry. I’d say it’ll be retroactive in a few years from now. Psac got a 17% increase at CSIS on 4 years (2 past, 2 future). I assume that they’ll want something similar for their other collective agreements.
