List of public sector workers whose salaries are suspended

The Controller and Accountant General’s Department (CAGD) has withheld the payment of the September 2022 salaries of some public sector workers.

The decision, the CAGD said in a statement, is due to a mismatch of the bank names of the affected government workers on the payroll system.

Others affected are workers with invalid bank account numbers.

In the October 3, statement, the CAGD explained the decision to suspend the payment of the salaries is a result of ongoing “quality assurance and other validation processes”.

The required documents include; an appointment letter, current posting letter, National Identification card, Pay-slips for the last 3 months and a voided cheque leaflet of their bank account.
