The
Defence Personnel Executive (DPE) is conducting a four-month trial
of a new Defence Pay and Conditions web site.
The site replaces various web sites with information on pay and
conditions for military and civilian personnel.
The trial will continue until June and the site’s official launch
is planned for July.
Developed with input from Navy, Army and Air Force representatives,
the collaborative site provides a “onestop” environment for information
on pay and conditions for the entire Australian Defence Organisation.
“Our aim is to develop a user-friendly web site that will help
you to easily find and understand information on your pay and
conditions,” said Roger Bacon, Director Determinations.
Navy WO Michael Cartledge, Submarine Liaison Officer, Fleet Intermediate
Maintenance Activity - Perth (FIMA-P), was one of the first to
provide DPE with feedback on the site.
“On first impressions it’s an excellent site that’s easy to navigate.
It will be a very useful tool to assist me in my duties as a divisional
officer,” he said.
The site can be found on the Defweb at http://intranet.defence.gov.au/pac/
and will soon be available on the Internet at www.defence.gov.au/dpe/pac
and the Defence Outreach CD.
