ST/IC/2014/8 United Nations Secretariat 7 February 2014 Information circular* To: Members of the staff From: The Assistant Secretary-General for Human Resources Management Revised base salary scales for staff in the Professional and higher categories and staff in the Field Service category Subject: 1. The General Assembly, in its resolution 68/253, approved a revised base salary scale for staff in the Professional and higher categories, effective 1 January 2014. The scale reflects the consolidation, on a no-loss/no-gain basis, of 0.19 multiplier points into the net base salaries in effect under the salary scale of 1 January 20 12. 2. In accordance with the practice followed on the occasion of previous consolidations of multiplier points into net base salaries, upon implementation of the revised base salary scale, revised post adjustment indices and multipliers will be established by the International Civil Service Commission (ICSC) for all duty stations. Changes in post adjustment multipliers due after 1 January 2014 will be effected on the basis of the movement of the newly consolidated post adjustment indices. 3. In its sixteenth annual report to the General Assembly, for 1990, ICSC recommended, and the Secretary-General subsequently approved, that future adjustments of the base salary scale applicable to staff in the Field Service category should be made by reference to adjustments to the salary scale for staff in the Professional and higher categories (A/45/30, para. 270 (e)). Accordingly, the net base salary scale for staff in the Field Service category has also been revised, effective 1 January 2014, to reflect the consolidation of 0.19 multiplier points into net base salaries, as indicated in paragraph 1 above. 4. The revised base salary scales for staff in the Professional and higher categories and staff in the Field Service category, effective 1 January 2014, showing gross salaries and their net equivalents after application of staff assessment, are reproduced in annexes I and II to the present circular. The implementation of these scales will be reflected in the end-of-January 2014 payroll. * The present circular, which cancels and supersedes ST/IC/2012/8, of 28 February 2012, will be in effect until further notice. 14-22924 (E) *1422924* 110214 ST/IC/2014/8 2/3 Annex I Salary scale for the Professional and higher categories showing annual gross salaries and net equivalents after application of staff assessment (United States dollars) Effective 1 January 2014 Steps Level I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX * 156 810 123 267 112 360 * 142 490 113 018 103 899 * 145 129 114 944 105 549 * 147 763 116 867 107 199 * 150 414 118 790 108 844 X XI XII XIII * 133 852 106 712 98 167 * 113 095 91 559 84 773 USG Gross Net D Net S 189 744 146 321 131 682 ASG Gross Net D Net S 172 436 134 205 121 527 D-2 Gross Net D Net S 141 519 112 309 103 177 * 144 521 114 500 105 026 * 147 523 116 692 106 869 * 150 549 118 884 108 706 D-1 Gross Net D Net S 129 315 103 400 95 575 131 952 105 325 97 246 134 582 107 245 98 916 137 219 109 170 100 579 * 153 680 121 076 110 539 * 139 858 111 096 102 241 P-5 Gross Net D Net S 106 944 87 069 80 887 109 185 88 705 82 342 111 429 90 343 83 792 113 668 91 978 85 241 115 914 93 617 86 688 118 153 95 252 88 130 120 399 96 891 89 572 122 640 98 527 91 011 124 882 100 164 92 447 127 125 101 801 93 881 * 129 367 103 438 95 313 * 131 608 105 074 96 739 P-4 Gross Net D Net S 88 108 72 605 67 611 90 108 74 185 69 049 92 106 75 764 70 488 94 105 77 343 71 920 96 106 78 924 73 354 98 104 80 502 74 787 100 114 82 083 76 219 102 277 83 662 77 647 104 441 85 242 79 074 106 603 86 820 80 502 108 770 88 402 81 925 110 930 89 979 83 349 P-3 Gross Net D Net S 72 411 60 205 56 198 74 262 61 667 57 542 76 114 63 130 58 889 77 962 64 590 60 232 79 815 66 054 61 579 81 665 67 515 62 922 83 514 68 976 64 265 85 368 70 441 65 612 87 218 71 902 66 955 89 068 73 364 68 300 90 922 74 828 69 640 P-2 Gross Net D Net S 59 387 49 916 46 819 61 043 51 224 48 006 62 697 52 531 49 189 64 354 53 840 50 375 66 010 55 148 51 559 67 663 56 454 52 745 69 322 57 764 53 949 70 973 59 069 55 151 72 629 60 377 56 358 74 287 61 687 57 561 75 941 62 993 58 761 92 770 76 288 70 982 * 77 597 64 302 59 968 P-1 Gross Net D Net S 46 487 39 514 37 273 47 968 40 773 38 432 49 442 42 026 39 591 50 995 43 286 40 748 52 582 44 540 41 906 54 173 45 797 43 064 55 766 47 055 44 222 57 359 48 314 45 366 58 946 49 567 46 504 60 537 50 824 47 643 94 623 77 752 72 319 XIV XV * 115 260 93 140 86 193 * 96 472 79 213 73 661 * 117 425 94 720 87 613 * 98 322 80 674 75 001 14-22924 D = Rate applicable to staff members with a dependent spouse or child.
