MONROVIA, October 29 (LINA) - Civil Service Agency (CSA) Director-General George Werner has disclosed that the Government of Liberia currently has 44,000 employees on its payroll.
Werner said the current payroll is the result of the deletion of over 3,000 ghost names by the CSA through the Biometric exercise introduced under the Civil Service Reform Program.
Appearing before the House of Representatives Tuesday, the CSA Director-General, who described the exercise as ‘successful,’ told the body that the process has been temporarily halted due to the Ebola outbreak, the Liberia News Agency reports.
He also revealed that the government has terminated the contracts of several consultants who were assigned to some public institutions in order to join the Civil Service Agency and make it stronger.
