The scheme is discretionary as to whether an employer or employee accepts to become a member of a particular PHI or not.

This is aimed at assisting the public sector attracting and retaining the best people. The selection of the PHI/s will be via a public tender process in a Request for Tenders (RFT), as further outlined in this document.
