The offices of Social Services and Labour that fall under the Ministry of Public Health, Social Development and Labour, located on the Pondfill next to Carl & Sons, will reopen to the public on Monday, September 19.
The offices won’t be 100 per cent fully operational due to some issues that still need to be completed such as the completion of the Information Technology installation, however, staff will be able to offer the basic services to clients.
Beautification work will continue to be carried out this week to complete this part of the upgrading of the department which is part of a package of measures taken to improve services to clients.
Acting Secretary General for the aforementioned Ministry Jorien Wuite, told the Department of Communication on Sunday that she was very pleased with the enormous teamwork displayed by ICT staff, Telem and Ministry VROMI which also included working on weekends.
“The staff have worked very hard along with many other stakeholders to reach this far. An enormous amount of work has been carried out and I have great appreciation for all who have contributed.
“A formal opening will take place next week involving the Minister. The main thrust behind this initiative is the enhancement of client services,” Acting Secretary General of the Ministry of Public Health, Social Development and Labour Jorien Wuite said on Sunday.
