Speaking at the signing ceremony, the Managing Director, Engr Abdu Bello Mohammed, stated that the revised edition was timely as it had been in existence since 2018.
According to him, “A document of such sensitive nature and importance, being operational for more than four years, would require review to ensure it accurately reflects the current realities regarding employee engagement, conduct, welfare, career and capacity development, as well as the company’s responsibility to its employees.”
Engr Mohammed praised the harmonious relationship between the management and unions. He also disclosed that the revised version of the conditions of service was necessitated by the fact that it would be used to improve the welfare and career development of employees, and ultimately benefit the company.
He emphasized that the management, under his leadership, has an open-door policy and is open to constructive advice from all staff members.
He urged the staff to put in their best efforts to ensure that Jos Electricity Distribution Plc achieves the highest level of collection efficiency.
