Speaking to newsmen in Abuja, Raji-Mustapha disclosed that the proposed system would ensure that employees’ salaries are directly tied to their productivity levels.
“We are in the process of developing a productivity-led wage system that will ensure that those who are productive are rewarded for their efforts irrespective of their grade level,” he stated.
Furthermore, the NPC DG clarified that under this new system, workers on the same salary scale could potentially earn different wages based on their respective productivity levels.
“Under the proposed system, employees on the same salary scale can earn different wages,” he explained.
However, Raji-Mustapha assured that the development process has been inclusive, with labor unions such as the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) being consulted and carried along.
“Of course, labor as a critical stakeholder is being carried along in this exercise. As researchers, we don’t just do things without considering the recipient of the reports,” he said.
