What happens now that grandparenting has finished?
The process for all new personnel entering the industry is for them to enter at the basic grade for that safety-critical position. There will, however, be instances where experienced personnel have, for some reason, missed being grandparented into the scheme. Such personnel may be eligible to enter a more senior position but this would still be seen as a temporary, unsubstantiated position, requiring an additional focus for supervision for a suitable period. The length of this period will depend on performance at that position. Such personnel would be subject to the ongoing assessment arrangements of the employing contractor.
