You work for the Department of Internal Affairs. If you stop working there and get a new job offer from the Classification Office, you might not get some payments. This new job offer must have similar or better work conditions than your old job. If you get this new job offer, you cannot get certain payments from the Department of Internal Affairs, even if you do not take the new job.

  1. Where—

  2. any employee of the Department of Internal Affairs ceases to be employed by that department; and
    1. on or before the date on which that employment so ceases, that employee receives an offer of employment in the Classification Office, being an offer of employment on terms and conditions that, taken as a whole, are substantially similar to, or better than, the terms and conditions of employment applying to that person immediately before that date,—
        1. then, notwithstanding the terms of that employee's contract of service with the Department of Internal Affairs, that employee shall not be entitled to receive any payment or other benefit from that department by reason only of that person so ceasing to be an employee of that department, whether or not that person accepts that offer of employment in the Classification Office.
