Score: 0/100
There is no established appointment system for military personnel.
Score: 25/100
There are formal processes in place, but they are regularly undermined by undue influence or inappropriate conduct in the promotion process. The civil service is not involved in the appointment process at all.
Score: 50/100
Appointments do not always apply objective job descriptions and standardised assessment processes, e.g., decisions may be unjustifiable based on objective criteria, or promotion boards may have members from within the chain of command. However, this is not a widespread or common practice.
Score: 75/100
The system for appointment of military personnel at middle and top management applies objective job descriptions and standardised assessment processes, though there is little independent scrutiny being paid to the promotion of senior personnel, e.g., promotion boards may not have independent observers.
Score: 100/100
The system for appointment of military personnel at middle and top management applies objective job descriptions and standardised assessment processes. Promotion boards are open and representatives from other branches of the armed forces are invited and regularly sit on the board. The civil service is involved for very high level ranks.
