    I noticed old discussions that it’s possible to transfer your pay if you are working in the public service. Can someone transfer pay from Garda to the prison service ? The circular attached mentions public servants can transfer pay on to new scale.

    Incremental credit only applies where certain analogous conditions apply such as the roles are similar in nature, must have been a permanent and pensionable position and your current max of the scale must not be higher than your new scale. A prison officer duties might be similar in some cases to a garda but generally a garda duties would not be considered similar to the duties of a prison officer overall and your payscale I'm guessing is higher than a recruit prison officers. Therefore incremental credit will/should not apply and you will take up the new role at point 1 of the rpo scale. Of course there could be exceptions to the norm but only the IPS hr team will be able to advise further. Give them a ring or email for guidance.
