“Today’s launch marks a critical step forward in our pursuit of excellence. The PMS will allow us to monitor progress, identify challenges and ensure we remain on track to meet our organisational, also national goals,” Dr Kofarmata explained.
The Permanent Secretary expressed the Ministry’s readiness towards implementing and institutionalising PMS as a measure of appraisal for staff, as enshrined in the Revised Public Service Rules (PSRs), 2024.
Earlier in his Welcome Address, the Director, Human Resource Management (DHRM), Mr. Aliyu Abdullahi, explained that the PMS Day Launch was meant to, majorly, draw attention on what PMS is all about. He disclosed that the performance assessment of Civil Servants will now be done objectively as opposed to the use of the hitherto flawed and compromised Annual Performance Evaluation Report (APER) system.
