The Wages and Compensation Commission (WCC) has launched a two-day engagement with public sector institutions across Sierra Leone aimed at advancing the harmonization of government salaries.
The initiative marks a significant step toward establishing a more equitable and transparent compensation system for public sector employees.
The engagement focuses on introducing and explaining a standardized data collection template developed by the Commission. The tool is designed to gather comprehensive information on employee compensation and benefits from various institutions, streamlining data collection and providing a foundation for informed decisions on wage determination and harmonization.
Speaking at the opening session, WCC Chairperson, Hon. Alhaji Osman Timbo, reaffirmed the Commission’s commitment to fairness and transparency in public sector remuneration. “Proactive measures will be taken to improve salaries and benefits for government workers, ensuring pay structures reflect equity and national priorities,” he said.
Hon. Timbo also stressed the importance of accurate data, noting, “Without reliable information from all public sector institutions, we cannot build a fair and consistent pay system. This process is essential to promoting justice and efficiency in rewarding public service.”
The two-day engagement provides a platform for dialogue on key issues surrounding wage determination, allowing institutions to contribute to shaping a balanced and transparent pay framework for Sierra Leone’s public sector.
How long will this commission be holding meetings, for the regularization of wages ? this is a tactics of distracting the attention of qualified citizens of their much needed advantage, this country started this wages and compensation together with the Gambia and since then in 2022 march ,the Gambia had since done theirs , and yet still sierra Leone is on issuance of press release for last year ,and this year it’s a consultation,
Is this commission people oriented , or a white elephant project meant to create jobs for the political boys.
If the government is willing , this wages compensation business can be done in a month time .
