35 Circumstances when SETs may be changed
The engager of an SES member may change the SES member’s SETs
if—
(a) the SES member, in writing, asks for the change and the engager
is satisfied the request is reasonable; or
(b) the engager is satisfied the change is required for the efficient
and effective management of the service; or
(c) the SES member is selected for another SES position in
accordance with a selection process.
Example—par (a)
Gillian asks to change from full-time to part-time employment.
Example—par (b)
John has expertise that is relevant to an emerging critical issue. John’s
administrative unit and functions are changed when he is moved to a
whole-of-government taskforce to address the issue. None of John’s other SETs are
changed.
Example—par (c)
Barlow, a part-time, temporary executive, is selected for a full-time, permanent SES
position in a different administrative unit, at a different classification. All of
Barlow’s SETs are changed.
Note An SES position may be changed by changing 1 or more SETs (see
s 33 (1)).
