When it's out, it will be on their site.[color=#006600][/color]What if they decided to change this year recruitment site like that of last year navy dssc recruitment? Where most people don't initially believe the site (www.joinnigeriannavy.com) because of the commercial initial it has. I think the best is through newspaper besides they don't upload the advert immediately on their site. |

petitmonde:Read this and digest, you'll get your answers in it. DETAILS of the newly-signed Harmonised Terms and Conditions of Service (HTACOS) for personnel of the Nigerian military, which is expected to bring sweeping changes towards the transformation and modernisation of the Armed Forces, have emerged. HTACOS, which was approved by the Armed Forces Council, took effect following its signing by outgoing Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Oluseyi Petinrin on July 10, 2012. It provides every officer of the military – Army, Navy and Air Force – with the specifics of the rules and regulations governing all issues, including recruitment, accommodation, promotion, retirements, resignations, death in active service, gratuities and benefits for depend ants, burial benefits, child education (dead or active service), medical treatment, pension and allowances. It also provides for what every officer should expect whether the personnel joined the military as Regular Combatant Commission (joined as cadet through the Nigerian Defence Academy) or through Direct Regular Commission, Direct Short Service Commission, Short Service Combatant Commission or the Executive/Special Duty/ Branch Commission. The aim is to have common terms and conditions of service in the three services – Army, Navy and Air Force, moving away from the former order where these terms and condition of service differed among the Services. Highlight of the HTACOS is that when fully implemented, retirement age in the military would be different from other personnel of the Federal Government. For now, the military is bound to retire its officers on their completion of 35 years of service or their attaining the age ceiling for their ranks, whichever comes first. This has resulted in the average retirement age for the nation’s military to be around 52 years. The HTACOS has effectively scrapped the years of service of 35 years of service and fully embraced the age on rank bracket to enable the Armed Forces to continue to tap from the experiences of its officers as is done in the Armed Forces of such nations as India, Britain and United States, well beyond the present retirement rules. This means that as long as officers and men of the Nigerian military pass the necessary promotion board examinations, they would not be retired just because they have served 35 years. But that will now depend on their Run Out Date (ROD). But effectively, the HTACOS starts with the 36th Course and their equivalents and above. The 36th Course members were the first set to start full degree programmes at the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA). Before then, Courses 1 to 35 studied and graduated with the National Certificate in Education (NCE) from the NDA. This means that while Course 36 and above will benefit from all the provisions of the HTACOS, their seniors, Courses 1 to 35, will not have the full benefits. Course 17 is the oldest still in service. Incoming Chief of Defence Staff, Vice Admiral Ola Sa’ad Ibrahim is Course 17, Lt.-Gen. Onyeabo Azubuike Ihejirika is Course 18, the new Service Chiefs – Rear Admiral Dele Joseph Ezeoba (Navy) is Course 22 while incoming Chief of the Air Staff, Air Vice Marshal Alex Sabundu Badeh (Air Force) is Course 21. Under the old TACOS, the ROD for a Regular Commissioned Lieutenant or its equivalent in the Navy (Sub-Lieutenant) or Air Force (Flying Officer) was 35 years, Captain/Lieutenant/Flight Lieutenant – 40, Major/Lieutenant Commander/ Squadron Leader – 46, Lieutenant Colonel/ Commander/Wing Commander – 49, Colonel/ Captain/Group Captain – 52, Brigadier-General/ Commodore/Air Commodore – 54, Major General/ Rear Admiral/Air Vice Marshal – 56, Lieutenant- General/Vice Admiral/Air Marshal – 58 and General/Admiral/Air Chief Marshal – 60. But under the new HTACOS, RODs were extended. Now, the ROD for Regular Commissioned Officers under the HTACOS for Lieutenant or its equivalent in the Navy and Air Force is 39 years, Captain or its equivalent- 46, Major or its equivalent – 50, Lieutenant Colonel or its equivalent – 53, Colonel or its equivalent – 54, Brigadier-General or its equivalent – 56, Major- General or its equivalent – 57, Lieutenant- General or its equivalent – 59 and General or its equivalent remains 60. Section 02.10 (b) of the HTACOS states: “Except as provided for in sub-sections (c) and (d), an officer holding a substantive rank will be retired on reaching the age indicated for that rank.” In addition to having the retirement age to be beyond 35 years in service, Brigadier-Generals and their equivalents will on implementation of the HTACOS be entitled to have in retirement the services of an orderly, driver and a steward, unless such officer specifically opts out of such arrangement. The number of such personal staff is expectedly higher for Major Generals and their equivalents. Initially, some personnel of the Nigerian military expressed misgivings about the HTACOS. Some were disappointed that it would only be fully implemented from Course 36 and above, meaning that Courses 17 to 35 would only benefit from partial implementation. This, they believed does not serve the “good” interest of the Armed Forces and the nation, alleging that some of the best hands in the military would still retire prematurely under the approved HTACOS. But Director, Defence Information, Col. Mohammed Yerima, dismissed such fears saying that “the newly signed Harmonised Terms and Conditions of Service (HTACOS 2012) is a well thought-out and carefully drafted roadmap for excellent career pursuit in the Armed Forces. The major thrust of the new HTACOS is the enablement of full and rewarding career for officers in their chosen profession; it is intended for the good of the officers and for the greater interest of the Armed Forces and the nation. Specifically, all officers of the Armed Forces now have the following additional years longer in the service compared to what is contained in HTACOS proposal of 2009: Lieutenant to Captain and their equivalent, four years; Major to Lieutenant Colonel and their equivalent, three years; Colonel and its equivalent, two years; Brigadier-General to Lieutenant General and their equivalent, one year. HTACOS 2012 also ensured that the frequent retirement in the Armed Forces is no longer tenable as was in the past, among other altruistic intentions. More instructive is the fact that the document was carefully drafted, duly subjected to due processes, scrutinized and approved by the Armed Forces Council before the Chief of Defence Staff was statutorily authorised to sign and implement it as approved.” The quest for a new HTACOS has been on in the military since the advent of the return to civil rule in May 1999. In December 2008, former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Paul Dike set up a panel to review the HTACOS, explaining that the review is aimed at bringing the terms and conditions of service in the three services in line with the changes envisaged in the transformation and modernisation agenda for the Nigerian military. Incidentally, the First Defence Retreat held in Jaji, Kaduna State last year had also recommended that “DHQ should review the HTACOS particularly as it concerns the length of service of personnel.” The expectation of the Retreat is that the HTACOS panel would result in the retirement for the military to be different from other personnel of the Federal Government. For now, the military is bound to retire its officers on their completion of 35 years of service or their attaining the age ceiling for their ranks, whichever comes first. This has resulted in the average retirement age for the nation’ military being around 52 years. |
