grade which include collecting statistical data through on-site interviews and keeping plans and records up-to- date for survey purposes are distinct from those of other grades within this category.
The entry qualification for the basic rank in the grade, i.e. Assistant Census and Survey Officer, is school certificate. The existing starting point is, therefore, difficult to justify. Our proposed scale takes this into account as well as the nature of the job and the need to appoint mature candidates. The pay scales of the senior ranks are in line with other comparable grades :

We therefore propose that Computer Operator be re-classified as a grade with a student rank for which the minimum entry qualification is school certificate. We further propose that the grade should have the following pay structure which acknowledges the different levels of responsibility
