 Ari, charged them to reciprocate management’s gesture through hardwork and dedication to duty.
He eminded them that the ITF was now vital to the actualization of the job/wealth creation goals of the Federal Government and noted that it would only effectively discharge this responsibility if all hands were on deck.
He said the present management of the Fund, was committed to ensuring that the workforce was duly motivated by providing the enabling environment for staff to excel.
The DG noted that it was for this reason that the current management in the ITF had scaled up staff development and welfare in order to ensure that the workforce was not only equipped with the requisite skills but were also in the right frame of mind to perform all tasks assigned them.
“Since the assumption of the incumbent management, staff development and welfare have been accorded priority attention. In 2018 alone, about 2000 staff across the cadres benefitted from long and short term training, while 804 staff were promoted”, he said.
