a. An employee who, for any reason other than the annual leave of another
employee, is called upon at the request of the Director of School/Head of
Service to undertake the full duties and responsibilities of a higher graded
post for a continuous period of at least four weeks, is entitled to receive a
salary in accordance with the grading of the post temporarily occupied.
The salary to be paid in such circumstances is the salary that would apply
were the employee promoted to a higher graded post. Once the qualifying
period of four weeks has been satisfied, the higher salary will be paid with
effect from the first day on which the employee was required to undertake
the duties and responsibilities of the higher post.
b. The provision of (a) applies only where an employee is required to
undertake the full duties and responsibilities of a higher graded post, and
cannot, therefore, be applied in cases where the duties and
responsibilities are shared between more than one employee. In any case
where there is no entitlement to a higher salary under (a) however, the
University may consider granting an honorarium (of an amount dependent
upon circumstances of each case) to an employee who performs duties
outside the scope of his post over an extended period, or where the
additional duties and responsibilities involved are exceptionally onerous.
c. HONORARIA APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Application for honoraria under the above provisions should initially be
discussed with supervisor/line manager who shall in turn discuss the
application with the Head of Service/Director of School.
If the Head of Service/Director of School wishes to pursue the request, it should
be made in writing to the Director of Personnel with full details of the circumstances
