The government says some 2,105 NABCO beneficiaries found to be already employed on other government programs such as YEA, NSS, Forestry Commission Payroll, MOH Nursing Training Institution or already employed in other sectors will be removed from the program.
This was announced by Information minister; Kojo Oppong Nkrumah at a press briefing held in Koforidua Sunday.
“Additionally, since October 2018 a total of 1,098 have also notified the secretariat of an intention to exit to other employment schemes. These voluntary exits are expected to continue as government continues to recruit into the public services. This will create more vacancies on the NABCO roll and will give the secretariat room to onboard persons who are on the waiting list and have not been placed yet.”
He hinted that those on the waiting list will now have an opportunity to be placed as vacancies open up.
He also explained that “being on the waiting list or even being placed does not mean a beneficiary is bonded as some have speculated. Entry onto and exit from the program is purely voluntary. NABCO encourages beneficiaries who desire to stay on the waiting list to indicate same on the NABCO recruitment platform online.”
