The Ministry of Public Service has warned all government agencies, including ministries, departments, agencies, and county governments, that failure to submit civil servant data to the Human Resource Information System (HRIS) by the end of September will result in delayed salaries for their employees. This initiative aims to enhance transparency and eliminate irregular payments by creating a single digital profile for every public servant.

• The HRIS platform is designed to capture every public servant under a single digital profile, including their national identity, job group, cadre, and official posting.
• Public Service Principal Secretary Jane Imbunya stated the system will help weed out ghost workers and align human resource data with actual government payrolls.
• In July, Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku revealed plans for a new mobile app to pay all civil servants, working with a local telecommunications company.
