In a bid to ensure the accuracy and integrity of government payroll records, the Office of the President has issued a directive to all heads of government institutions requesting detailed information on staff members who have been added to the payroll since December 7, 2024.

The request, part of ongoing efforts under the John Mahama administration, aims to maintain transparency and accountability in payroll management processes.

Heads of government institutions are required to submit the full name, designation, employee identification number (if applicable), date of appointment, and date added to the payroll for each staff member added within the specified period.

The information is to be submitted to the Office of the President no later than January 31, 2025.

The directive emphasises the importance of this data in ensuring the integrity of the government’s payroll system.

Julius Debrah, Chief of Staff in a letter assured that any further clarification or questions regarding the directive can be addressed by contacting the Office of the President.
