Kenyatta: Parastatal employees must be evaluated

President Uhuru Kenyatta has told employees of all state parastatals to prepare to take part in a job evaluation exercise alongside other public servants.

President Kenyatta directed parastatals to implement Public Sector Remuneration and Benefits Policy that he launched at KICC Friday, to help the country develop faster.

Speaking, while also launching the job evaluation exercise to be done by Salaries and Remunerations Commission (SRC), the President urged all government agencies to work with SRC to implement the policy and job evaluation exercise.

Kenyatta says the Public Sector Remuneration and Benefits Policy will greatly reduce the huge wage bill and enable public service attract and retain skilled manpower.

Devolution Cabinet Secretary Anne Waiguru said the move will improve quality of service to Kenyans.

SRC Chair Sarah Serem said the commission will foster sanity in managing the country’s economy in the long term.
