The Western Provincial Health Authority (WPHA) is one of the first PHA’s in the country to participate in the nation-wide NID registration for public servants through the Department of Personnel Management (DPM) and National Civil Registry. A mobile team is now at the provincial headquarters in Daru to conduct audit and registration for health workers and support staff at the PHA as part of GoPNG’s One Pay, Person and One Position (1PPP) Policy to register all public servants on the payroll system and reduce wage bill for the public service. “This exercise will enable good data cleansing for Western PHA records and stop over payments to unknown employees,” said Acting Organizational Development Officer Ms. Heleno Thomas. Meanwhile DPM’s Business Systems Development Manager Mr. Richard Awok said “This will benefit every officer and individual and make accessibility to other services like banking, travel, health and education easier.” Chief Executive Officer for Western PHA Dr. Niko Wuatai stated, “This exercise is to ensure that all WPHA officers are registered in time for the deadline of NID registrations in June 2023.” “We have taken the extraordinary step of requesting these officers from DPM and Civil Registry to come to Daru and met all their travel arrangements," Dr. Wuatai added. This NID rollout will cover South Fly and Delta Fly Districts as North Fly now has a newly established NID office servicing the district. All public servants from the 141 government agencies including teachers, nurses and members of the disciplinary forces serving across the country are required to register through the NID process.
