Revised, New Salaries for all Public and Civil Servants 2023-2027

1.ย ย  Preamble

The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) is established under Article 230(1) of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, to set and regularly review the remuneration and benefits of all State officers, and advise the national and county governments on the remuneration and benefits of all other public officers. In discharging its mandate, SRC is guided by principles set out in Article 230(5) of the constitution, and Section 12 of SRC Act, 2011.

  • The Constitutional principles are:
    • The need to ensure that the total public compensation bill is fiscally sustainable;
    • The need to ensure that the public services are able to attract and retain the skills required to execute their functions;
    • The need to recognize productivity and performance; and
    • Transparency and
  • Statutory requirement: Equal remuneration to persons for work of equal value as required by Section 12 of the SRC Act 2011.

Pursuant to Section 11(e) of SRC Act, the Commission set a four-year review cycle for remuneration and benefits in the public service. The first cycle covered the period 2013/2014 โ€“ 2016/2017, while the second covered 2017/2018 โ€“ 2020/2021. The third remuneration review cycle covers the financial years (FY) 2021/2022 โ€“ 2024/2025.

In exercise of its mandate as set out under Article 230(4)(a) of the Constitution, SRC reviewed and set the remuneration and benefits for State officers covering the FYs 2021/2022 โ€“2022/2023 as published in gazette notices dated 27th July, 2022.

Further, SRC has reviewed the remuneration and benefits for State officers covering the FY 2023/2024 โ€“ 2024/2025 and is proposing the remuneration and benefits for implementation in two phases as follows:
