The government has directed all its agencies to submit their annual recruitment plans even as it bids to streamline hiring of staff in the public sector.
Public Service Commission (PSC) chairperson Anthony Muchiri said these hiring plans will now be monitored in a centralised manner, this coming amid growing concerns over a potential freeze by more parastatals.
Ambassador Muchiri announced the planned changes during a media engagement with all ministries, departments, and agencies (MDAs) on Thursday, and said his commission will oversee the process. Muchiri said all MDAs will be required to submit the plans by July 1 every year, and warned that those that fail to align with the reforms risk missing their budgetary allocations.
Some of these reforms are in line with the demands of international lenders.
