 The Personnel Management Office (PMO) of the Gambia government is to embark on “a comprehensive nationwide staff audit” to fish out all ghost workers in the civil service and security forces.
A press release from the PMO yesterday said the main objective of the exercise, which is to commence on 27 March 2017, is to improve payroll integrity by ensuring that only staff working are on government payroll.
“In this regard, all staff are hereby informed that the audit teams will visit them at their duty stations and all are strongly advised to be present during the audit period, as anyone who is not physically indentified will have his/her salary stopped immediately after the exercise,” the release said.
“For the purpose of the exercise, staff are required to present their national identification documents and appointment letters or last promotion letters for identification purpose.”
The staff audit is to begin on 27 March through to 12 May 2017. It would be carried out in two phases.
The first phase, 27 March – 5 April, and 10 April – 21 April, covers the civil service in the Greater Banjul Area and West Coast Region, and all other regions, respectively.
The second and final phase covers the security agencies. The first part of the second phase is 24 April to 28 April 2017 for all regions except Greater Banjul Area and West Coast Region.
The second part of the second phase is 2 to 12 May for Greater Banjul Area and West Coast Region.

The Permanent Secretary at the Personnel Management Office (PMO), Mr. Pateh Jah, has revealed that preliminary findings indicate that there are ghost workers in the civil service, whose salaries are still floating.
Mr.Jah was speaking during the Public Service Commission’s meeting with President Barrow.
Mr. Jah said the findings from a recent staff audit exercise that has been carried out, have been submitted to the relevant authorities, to execute the necessary actions.
He said the general observations indicate that some staff do not have the requisite resources to do the job they have been appointed to, and cannot respond to the call to improve service delivery.
He said the development agenda of the new government includes institutional reforms which necessitated a nationwide staff audit exercise.
According to Mr. Jah, the system requires to be strengthened.
The Permanent Secretary concludes: “You cannot deliver when you don’t have people who have the necessary skills and expertise to do the job. These are part of the challenges that they would be able to uncover during the exercises”. |
