The recruitment and appointment of Recruit Prison Officer is in accordance with the conditions of service attached to direct entry grades which excludes incremental credit for previous public service employment.  It is however the position that Prison Administration & Support Staff who are appointed to the Recruit Prison Officer grade will attract a range of payments in addition to their basic incremental scale salary including an operational allowance and an unsocial hours allowance which will result in their gross salaries exceeding their previous held salary at Prison Administration and Support Officer level.
