  In cases of a change in designation, promotion or lateral transfer, the employer must send an Official Declaration with the following information to hriu.jobsplus@gov.mt:

  • Name, Surname and Identification number of the employee in question;
  • The title of the previous Designation (From);
  • The title of the new Designation (To);
  • The Effective date of the New Designation.

  The Official Declaration needs to be signed by both the employer and employee. Consequently, there is no need to fill up any Engagement or Termination Form when notifying Jobsplus with such changes within the organisation.

  In case of an addition of a new designation on-top of the present designation, the employer must send an Official Declaration with the following information (similar to a promotion) to hriu.jobsplus@gov.mt:

  • Name, Surname and Identification number of the employee in question;
  • The title of the previous Designation (From);
  • The title of the new added Designation (To);
  • The Effective date of the New Added Designation.

  In case of promotion or a change in designation for third-country nationals (TCNs) covered by an employment license (issued in the name of the employer) or a single permit, the process is a bit different since the licence/permit is issued on a particular designation or occupation. In these cases, the employer can  only update the designation/occupation when renewing the employment license/single permit. Once the employment licence/single permit has been issued, Jobsplus may amend the employee’s records accordingly.
