The Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF) has won the 2023 edition of the Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association’s (NECA) Award in Best Service Delivery category.
Receiving the prize, NSITF managing-director Maureen Allagoa said the honour will motivate the agency to greater heights, adding that it underscores the huge mileage the fund has lately covered in the implementation of the employees’ compensation scheme.
Represented at the event by the executive-director, administration, Prof Gabriel Okenwa, Allagoa said the NSITF will remain steadfast to the unwavering expansion of social security to all Nigerian workers.
According to a statement issued by the fund’s general-manager, corporate affairs, Nwachukwu Godson, Allagoa added that NSITF has further re-engineered its internal operations for greater efficiency, part of which is the introduction of a monthly online Management Performance Review which resulted in the opening up of new frontiers, with improved interface among the over 5000 staff members of the fund.
“The NECA award is simply a testimony to all we have been doing lately. It is a mirror on our stoic commitment to service delivery, geared towards the enhancement of the welfare and social security of workers. It is a high-water mark in our recent history, and we can only do more.
“We have also recalibrated our strategic objectives to properly align with the Eight Point Agenda of the Tinubu Administration on Poverty Reduction. Gradually, timelines are being worked out to expand into the untapped areas of the ILO Convention 102, including old age, unemployment, and family benefits, among others”, she said.
