A non-EEA citizen who is a parent of a dependent child who is a citizen of, and resident in, an EEA member state or the UK or Switzerland and has a Stamp 4 visa. Tenure: This is a 3-year fixed term contract role. The appointee will be required to serve a 3-month probationary period. Location: The appointee for this role will be based in the Ombudsman for Children’s Office at 52-56 Great Strand Street, Dublin. When absent from home and place of employment on official duty, the appointee will be paid appropriate travelling expenses and subsistence allowances, subject to normal civil service regulations/public sector regulations. Hours of attendance: Hours of attendance will amount to not less than 35 hours gross. The appointee will be required to work such additional hours from time to time as may be reasonable and necessary for the proper performance of their duties subject to the limits set down in the working time regulations. Rest Periods: The terms of the Organisation of Working Time Act, 1997 will apply to this appointment. Annual Leave: In addition to the standard 10 public holidays and Good Friday, the annual leave for this position is 23 days per annum. Sick Leave: Pay during properly certified sick absence, provided there is no evidence of permanent disability for service, will apply on a pro-rata basis, in accordance with the provisions of the sick leave circulars. PRSI: Officers who will be paying Class A rate of PRSI will be required to sign a mandate authorising the Department of Social Protection to pay any benefits due under the Social Welfare Acts directly to the OCO. Payment during illness will be subject to the officer making the necessary claims for social insurance benefit to the Department of Social Protection within the required time limits. Superannuation and Retirement: The successful candidate will be offered the appropriate superannuation terms and conditions as prevailing in the OCO at the time of being offered an appointment. In general, and except for candidates who have worked in a pensionable (non-single scheme terms) public service job in the 26 weeks prior to appointment (see paragraph d below), this means being offered appointment based on membership of the Single Public Service Pension Scheme (“ Single Scheme ”). Key provisions attaching to membership of the Single Scheme are as follows: Pensionable Age: The minimum age at which pension is payable is 66 (rising to 67 and 68) in line with State Pension age changes. a) Retirement Age: will be determined in accordance with the relevant government Departmental circulars. b) Pension Abatement o If the appointee was previously employed in the Civil Service or in the Public Service please note that the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012 includes a provision which extends abatement of pension for all Civil and Public Servants who are re-employed where a Public Service pension is in payment. This provision to apply abatement across the wider public service came into effect on 1 November 2012. o This may have pension implications for any person appointed to this position that is currently in receipt of a Civil or Public Service pension or has a preserved Civil or Public Service pension which will come into payment during their employment in this position. Department of Education and Skills Early Retirement Scheme for Teachers Circular 102/2007 o The Department of Education and Skills introduced an Early Retirement Scheme for Teachers. It is a condition of the Early Retirement Scheme that with the exception of the situations set out in paragraphs 10.2 and 10.3 of the relevant circular documentation, and with those exceptions only, if a teacher accepts early retirement under Strands 1, 2 or 3 of this scheme and is subsequently employed in any capacity in any area of the public sector, payment of pension to that person under the scheme will immediately cease. Pension payments will, however, be resumed on the ceasing of such employment or on the person’s 60th birthday, whichever is the later, but on resumption, the pension will be based on the person’s actual reckonable service as a teacher (i.e. the added years previously granted will not be taken into account in the calculation of the pension payment). Ill-Health Retirement o Please note that where an individual has retired from a Civil/Public Service body on the grounds of ill-health their 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. c) Prior Public Servants While the default pension terms, as set out in the preceding paragraphs, consist of Single Scheme membership, this may not apply to certain appointees. Full details of the conditions governing whether or not a public servant is a Single Scheme member are given in the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and other Provisions) Act 2012. However, the key exception case (in the context of this competition and generally) is that a successful candidate who has worked in a pensionable (non-single scheme terms) capacity in the public service within 26 weeks of taking up appointment, would in general not become a member of the Single Scheme. In this case such a candidate would instead be offered membership of the pension scheme for non-established civil servants (“Non-Established State Employee Scheme”). This would mean that the abatement provisions at (c) above would apply, and in addition there are implications in respect of pension accrual as outlined below: d) 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 would 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 a previous public service employment. e) Additional Superannuation Contributions (ASC) ASC was introduced on 1 January 2019 replacing Pension Related Deduction (PRD), which had been in existence since 1 March 2009. ASC is provided for under Part 4 of the Public Service Pay and Pensions Act 2017. Whereas PRD was a temporary emergency measure, ASC is a permanent pension contribution payable in addition to existing pension contributions and attracting tax relief at the marginal rate. In general, ASC liabilities are lower than the previous PRD liabilities. The above represents the principal conditions of service and is not intended to be the comprehensive list of all terms and conditions of employment which will be set out in the employment contract to be agreed with the successful candidates.
