The government is set to introduce attendance registers to track civil servants' presence at work as part of a broader effort to reform the civil service.

Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku made the announcement on Tuesday morning during an impromptu visit to the Nyeri Regional Headquarters.

He added that the government will also enforce adherence to performance appraisal systems and conduct a baseline survey to assess employee satisfaction across all ministries, departments, and agencies (MDAs). "Going forward, we want to engage all supervisors across all levels of administration and introduce an attendance register to ensure every employee has a clearly defined schedule of duties," Ruku stated.
