Medical A candidate who is not already in permanent employment of the Authority will be required, prior to appointment, to pass a medical examination by a doctor nominated by the Authority. The Authority bears the cost of this examination. Superannuation and Retirement The appointee will be offered public service pension terms and retirement age conditions in accordance with pension arrangements in the Road Safety Authority depending on the status of the successful appointee. Full details of the scheme are available at the Single Public Service Pension Scheme website. (a) In general, an individual who has no prior pensionable Public Service history in the 26 weeks prior to appointment will be a member of the Single Public Service Pension Scheme which commenced from 1 January 2013 (Section 10 of the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012 refers). Under the Single Public Service Pension Scheme, retirement is compulsory on reaching 70 years of age. Minimum pension age is 66 years, but this will rise to 67 and 68 in line with State Pension age changes. (b) An individual who is on secondment will remain a member of the parent organisation’s pension scheme and the pensionable remuneration will be based on his or her substantive grade, that is the grade at which the individual is employed in the parent organisation. (c) An individual who was a member of a pre existing public service pension scheme as construed by the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012 and who does not qualify for membership of the Single Scheme will be a member of the Road Safety Authority’s existing Staff Superannuation Scheme. (d) Appointee’s status for superannuation purposes At the time of being offered an appointment, the Road Safety Authority, in consultation with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform if necessary, will, in the light of the appointee’s previous Public Service and or other employment history, determine the appropriate pension terms and conditions to apply for the duration of the appointment. Appointees will be required to disclose their full public service history. Details of the appropriate superannuation provisions will be provided upon determination of the appointee’s status. The following points should be noted: Pension Accrual A 40 year limit on total service that can be counted towards pension where a person has been a member of more than one existing public service pension scheme will apply. This 40 year limit, which is provided for in the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012, came into effect on 28 July 2012. This may have implications for any appointee who has acquired pension rights in previous public service employment. Pension Abatement The Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012 extended pension abatement so that a retiree’s public service pension is liable to abatement on re entering public service employment, even where the new employment is in a different area of the public service. However, if the appointee was previously employed in the Civil Service and awarded a pension under voluntary early retirement arrangements (other than the Incentivised Scheme of Early Retirement or the Health Service Executive Voluntary Early Retirement or Voluntary Redundancy Schemes which, as outlined below, render a person ineligible for the competition), the entitlement to payment of that pension will cease with effect from the date of reappointment. Special arrangements will, however, be made for the reckoning of previous service given by the appointee for the purpose of any future superannuation award for which the appointee may be eligible. Ill Health Retirement Please note that where an individual has retired from a Civil or Public Service body on the grounds of ill health, his or her pension from that employment may be subject to review in accordance with the rules of ill health retirement within the pension scheme of that employment. Incentivised Scheme for Early Retirement It is a condition of the Incentivised Scheme for Early Retirement as set out in Department of Finance Circular 12 of 2009 that retirees under that scheme are debarred from applying for another position in the same employment or the same sector. Therefore, such retirees may not apply for this position. Department of Health and Children Circular 7 of 2010 The Department of Health Circular 7 of 2010 dated 1 November 2010 introduced a Targeted Voluntary Early Retirement Scheme and Voluntary Redundancy Schemes. It is a condition of the Voluntary Early Retirement scheme that persons availing of the scheme will not be eligible for re employment in the public health sector or in the wider public service or in a body wholly or mainly funded from public moneys. The same prohibition on re employment applies under the Voluntary Redundancy Scheme, except that the prohibition is for a period of 7 years, after which time any re employment will require the approval of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. People who availed of either of these schemes are not eligible to compete in this competition. Eligibility to Compete Candidates must, by the date of any job offer, be: A citizen of the European Economic Area. The European Economic Area consists of the Member States of the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. A citizen of the United Kingdom. A citizen of Switzerland pursuant to the agreement between the European Union and Switzerland on the free movement of persons. A non European Economic Area citizen who has a Stamp 4 permission or a Stamp 5 permission. Please note that a 50 TEU permission, which is a replacement for Stamp 4 EUFAM after Brexit, is acceptable as a Stamp 4 equivalent.

The Civil Service also operates a Mobility scheme for all general service grades. This scheme provides staff with career opportunities to learn and partake in diverse roles across a range of Civil Service organisations and geographical locations (subject to conditions). PRINCIPAL CONDITIONS OF SERVICE General The appointment is to a permanent post in the Civil Service and is subject to the Civil Service Regulations Acts 1956 to 2005, the Public Service Management (Recruitment and Appointments) Act 2004 and any other Act for the time being in force relating to the Civil Service.

Annual Leave The Annual Leave allowance is 22 days rising to 23 days after 5 years’ service and to 24 days after 10 years’ service, 25 days after 12 years’ service and 26 after 14 years’ service. This allowance is subject to the usual conditions regarding the granting of annual leave in the civil service, is based on a five-day week and is exclusive of the usual public holidays. Candidates with Disabilities - Reasonable Accommodations for the Selection Process publicjobs has a key role to play in attracting candidates from all sectors of society, ensuring that routes to career opportunities are accessible to all who are interested. We are committed to equality of opportunity for all candidates. If you have a disability or need reasonable accommodations made during the selection process, we strongly encourage you to share this with us so that we can ensure you get the support you need. Please note, this relates only to the selection process (e.g. online tests, interviews, etc.) and not workplace accommodations. Reasonable accommodation in our selection process refers to adjustments and practical changes which would enable a disabled candidate to have an equal opportunity for this competition. Examples of adjustments we provide include the use of assistive technology, extra time, scribes and/or readers or a range of other accommodations. Please be assured that having a disability or requiring adjustments will not impact on your progress in the selection process; you will not be at a disadvantage if you disclose your disability or requirements to us. Your disability and/or adjustments will be kept entirely confidential. Should you be successful, the disclosure of a disability for this stage of the process will not be passed onto the employing department unless you request that we do so. If you have indicated on your application/profile that you require reasonable accommodations, you should upload a copy of your psychologist/medical report directly to your online application before submitting your application. You are required to include a copy of your medical/psychologist report before the closing date of the competition (3pm on Thursday 12th March 2026). Please do not email a copy of your report to the recruitment unit mailbox. The purpose of the report is to provide publicjobs with information to act as a basis for determining reasonable accommodations, where appropriate. The information within these reports that is useful for us to see includes the outcome of any diagnostic tests conducted by your psychologist/doctor, and their summary of recommendations in relation to your requirements. You may redact (block out) parts of medical reports/psychologist’s reports that you feel are sensitive or unnecessary for the decision to make reasonable adjustments. If you have previously applied for a competition with publicjobs and submitted a report (within the past 3 years), there will be an area on the online application where you can provide details of the previous competition and/or your previous candidate ID number. A member of the Assessment Services unit will check if your report is still on file (if you consented to this information being retained). Next Steps Should you come under consideration to proceed to subsequent stages of the selection process, information will be forwarded to you at the appropriate time. General Information The admission of a person to a competition, or invitation to attend interview, or a successful result letter, is not to be taken as implying that publicjobs is satisfied that such a person fulfils the requirements. Prior to recommending any candidate for appointment to this position publicjobs will make all such enquiries that are deemed necessary e.g. health, character, employer references, security checks (including international checks), or any other enquiries as are deemed necessary to determine the suitability of that candidate. Until all stages of the recruitment process have been fully completed a final determination cannot be made nor can it be deemed or inferred that such a determination has been made. Security Clearance You will be required to complete and return a Garda eVetting form should you come under consideration for appointment. This form will be forwarded to An Garda Síochána for security checks on all Irish and Northern Irish addresses at which you resided. If you subsequently come under consideration for a position in another recruitment competition within 6 months of being vetted by publicjobs, please notify us as you may not be required to complete a further Garda Vetting Form. If you have resided/studied in countries outside of the Republic of Ireland for a consecutive period of 12 months or more after the age of 18, it is mandatory for you to furnish a Police Clearance Certificate from those countries stating that you have no convictions recorded against you while residing there. You will need to provide a separate Police Clearance Certificate for each country you have resided in. The clearance Certificate must be dated after the date you left the country. It is your responsibility to seek security clearances in a timely fashion as they can take some time. You cannot be appointed without this information being provided and deemed satisfactory by publicjobs. Candidates should be aware that any information obtained in the Garda Vetting process can be made available to the employing authority. Reschedule Requests Requests for a reschedule or change to a candidate’s allocated date/time for assessment, interview, etc. may only be considered in exceptional circumstances (i.e. bereavement/illness). Reschedules cannot be guaranteed as there are often strict time frames around the running of competitions and we may request supporting documentation as evidence. Candidates who are rescheduled will be scored with their rescheduled batch where applicable and may not be reinserted into their original batch. Please note that candidates who are permitted to reschedule will be given only one opportunity to do so. Specific Candidate Criteria In addition to fulfilling the eligibility criteria set out, candidates must: • Have the knowledge and ability to discharge the duties of the post concerned; • Be suitable on the grounds of health and character; • Be suitable in all other relevant respects for appointment to the post concerned. If successful, they will not be appointed to the post unless they: • Agree to undertake the duties attached to the post and accept the conditions under which the duties are, or may be required to be, performed; • Are fully competent and available to undertake, and fully capable of undertaking, the duties attached to the position. Non-Refund of Expenses Any expenses incurred by candidates whilst undertaking or attending any elements of the selection process will not be refunded. Appointments from Panels and the Pre-Employment Checks Process At the end of the selection process a panel(s) of qualified candidates is formed from which vacancies may be filled. A panel is made up of candidates who have been deemed suitably qualified having successfully completed the assessment e.g. Testing, Interview, etc. The panel may consist of multiple batches as groups of candidates are brought through the full assessment process in response to the demand from clients. As vacancies arise, they will be filled from the panel of suitably qualified candidates. It is not envisaged that appointments will be made from this competition after 30th April 2027. When a candidate is placed on a panel, they will have to wait for a vacancy to arise that corresponds with their order of merit. Candidates are placed by order of merit into batches, so candidates should be aware that there may be already batches in place ahead of them and their overall placement on the panel could be affected by this. publicjobs has no foresight as to how many vacancies may be filled over the lifetime of the panel, and potentially candidates may not be reached on the order of merit. Qualification and placement on a panel is not a guarantee of appointment to a position. Should your place on the panel be reached and you come under consideration for a position, several pre-employment checks must be completed before a candidate is deemed suitable for appointment. These checks are carried out to satisfy publicjobs that the candidate fulfils all necessary requirements. Prior to assigning any candidate for appointment to the position, publicjobs will make all such enquiries necessary to determine the suitability and eligibility of that candidate. This process will consist of an assessment of your general eligibility, health and character (including Garda Vetting and security clearance for time spent abroad), and your employment history. If you are currently employed, please note a reference from your current employer will be required in advance of your assignment from the panel. This will be requested at the latter stages of the pre-employment checks process. Other Elements of the selection process may be undertaken by other parties. In such circumstances it will be necessary for your information to be shared between publicjobs and these parties in order for your application to be processed. Honesty Agreement Honesty and integrity are key values in the Civil and Public Service. Candidates are therefore required to complete this selection process honestly, independently and in accordance with the rules and guidelines. The use of online systems, software or artificial intelligence to facilitate completion of assessment stages, is not permitted. Candidate responses and submissions for relevant assessment stages are subject to checks for response pattern, duplication, originality and a range of other checks. As this is a competitive process, these checks are required to ensure fairness and originality of work submitted. Where a breach occurs, publicjobs will consider sanctions which may result in disqualification from the competition. In completing the assessment stages, you are confirming that you consent for your work to be subject to this process, as relevant. Overview The Civil Service Capability Framework is the new model which will be used for recruitment and selection for roles across the Civil and Public Service. The framework was developed based on extensive research and consultation and supports the Civil and Public Service in building the workforce of the future. Our ambition is to attract, empower and develop a diversity of people, with the capability and talent to collaboratively deliver excellence, on behalf of our government and the people of Ireland. The Civil Service Capability Framework for Clerical Officer will be used as a basis for selection for the Clerical Officer role. Exploring and strengthening capability requires us to consider the whole person. The framework builds on the competency-based approach to consider a wider variety of factors that may influence performance, including: behaviours/past experience, skills, strengths, knowledge, values, motivation and interests.
