Promotion and pay scales

[Dan_Brown]

I've done a search on the forum and seen a couple of differing answers from people. So, hoping someone can provide an up to date response:

So, an individual is promoted Cpl - Sgt. Said individual is higher pay band, level 7. What level Sgt pay will they start at? I have seen somoene mention 2% minimum, but then abother individual mentioned 5% specifically for Cpl - Sgt (but i had not heard that one before!)

Also, when does Sgt pay and the 2 year minimum time in rank for pension purposes commence? From time of coming off board or from completion of IMLC?

Ta!

Cpl - Sgt has a min of 5% increase, so you'll go to level 4 Sgt. (this is correct, this is the rise I got last year)

I believe that the date for pension purposes is your actual promotion date, as substantive rank is back dated once you have completed your courses.

The pay will apply as soon as you start wearing the rank.

Thanks for that.
