Delay in November Allowances: What Public Workers Need to Know

The Controller and Accountant-General’s Department (CAGD) has announced a delay in paying two categories of allowances scheduled for November 2025. According to the official notice, a technical hitch during the final payroll run made it impossible to process these allowances on time.

To prevent any disruption to November salaries for all government workers, CAGD paused the allowance payments. This means salaries will be paid as expected, but the two affected allowances will be added to the December 2025 payroll and paid on 18th December 2025.

This update is especially relevant to workers in the education sector, many of whom rely on these allowances to support monthly expenses. While the delay is inconvenient, CAGD has assured the public that the issue is being resolved and that no worker will lose their entitlement.

The department has apologized for the inconvenience and is asking workers for patience as they work to restore normalcy to the payroll process.
